Are the typical carbon nanotube synthesis methods considered “high energy” or “low energy”? Explain
Main methods of making of the carbon nanotube (CNTs)are plasma
arc method and laser method.
I am explaining one method to make you understand how much energy
is consumed in this process.
Plasma formation is done in the first process by keeping two carbon
electrodes in an inert medium ,high vacuum and
voltage is applied to form the plasma arc, arc formation
is essentially at very high temperature and thus it is highly
energy intensive process.
Carbon electrodes from one electrode forms cation and gets
deposited on another electrode and thus it is almost similar to
that of the liquid electrolysis.
On the another electrode the deposited substance is carbon nanotube
as well as fullerenes, the process of separating them two is also a
energy intensive process.
Another method that is used for carbon nanotube formation is laser
method which is done approximately at 1200 o C ,and thus it is also
a energy intensive process.
Thus we should conclude that this is high energy process.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Typical Vickers indentation on a 4 vol% carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced ZrB2 ceramic composite shows cracks emanating from the indentation corners (see figure). The indentation was obtained using load of 1000 g and holding time of 15 s (Vickers Hardness tester). Fracture toughness and Hardness of material are given by expressions: 1/2 0.016(5) H/2 1.854P where E is Young's Modulus of the composite (GPa); H is Vickers Hardness (GPa); P is applied load (N); c is diagonal crack length emanating...
