Abstract :
We report results on purification and characterization of single wall carbon nanotubes prepared by the electric arc method. The process consists of a chemical treatment based on a reflux with nitric acid followed by successive filtration steps (tangential flow and frontal filtration) of a suspension of the raw material. The effects of each step are analysed by SEM and TEM.
