Carbon nanofibres and activated carbon nanofibres as electrodes in supercapacitors [PDF]
Abstract Carbon nanofibres have been prepared by a floating catalyst procedure at industrial scale in a metallic furnace. The nanofibres (50–500 nm diameter and 5–200 μm length) are grown from the Fe particles used as catalyst. Soot appears together with the carbon nanofibres.

Carbon nanofibres produced from electrospun cellulose nanofibres [PDF]
Cellulose nanofibres have been fabricated by electrospinning of a cellulose acetate solution followed by deacetylation. The cellulose nanofibres were then carbonized using temperatures in the range 800-2200 degrees C and the resulting carbon nanofibres (CNFs) were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Raman ...

NANOTUBE REINFORCED POLYMER NANOFIBRES: TOWARDS QUANTUM NANOFIBRES [PDF]
Electrospinning has been used to prepare poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibres, with diameters ranging from 1 pm down to 20 nm, that contain dispersions of isolated, well-aligned, single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The nanofibres were characterized by Raman spectroscopy and single radial breathing modes (RBMs) were found for the SWNTs in the ...
