Abstract

Carbon nanoscrolls (CNS), a one dimensional (1D) helical form of carbon, have received enormous attention recently due to their unique structure, superior properties and potential applications. In this work, radial merging of HiPCO single walled nanotube (SWNT) bundles and emergence of CNS are reported following a reflux action involving wet oxidation, HCl washing and annealing at 900 °C. We observe macroscopic quantities of graphene sheets (GS) in the post-treated sample and beautiful manifestation of curling and folding of the GS into CNS. Here, a simple solution based oxidative route for successful merging and exfoliation of SWNT bundles and subsequent formation of CNS are demonstrated and discussed in view of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies. Direct evidence of emergence of CNS from SWNTs via synthesis of GS through a simple oxidative method is reported for the first time.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
