Abstract:
Single walled carbon nanotubes can be synthesized and production efficiency of carbon nanotubes can be enhanced by a method including a supplying step (S11) in which particulate carriers are supplied into a drum, a sputtering step (S12) for supporting a catalyst, in which sputtering is performed while this drum 10 is rotated around the axis and is swung so that one end portion and the other end portion in the axial direction of the drum 10 are relatively vertically switched, and a recovering step (S13) in which the particulate carriers are recovered by inclining the drum to discharge the particulate carriers from the drum.

Abstract:
A drum sputtering device that can uniformly deposit target atoms on all over particles is provided. The drum sputtering device includes a vacuum container 2 that contains particles, a tubular drum 10 that is arranged inside the vacuum container 2 and at least one end face 10c of which is open, and a sputtering target 16 that is arranged inside the drum 10. With a supporting arm 11, a drive motor 12 for rotation, a drive motor 13 for swing, a first gear member 14, and a second gear member 15, the drum can be rotated around the axis of the drum 10 and the drum 10 can be swung so that one end portion 10e and the other end portion 10f in the axial direction of the drum 10 are relatively vertically switched.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of producing carbon nanotubes, comprising a catalyst particle forming step of heating and reducing a catalyst raw material to form catalyst particles and a carbon nanotube synthesizing step of flowing a raw material gas onto the heated catalyst particles to synthesize carbon nanotubes, wherein a carbon-containing compound gas without an unsaturated bond is flowed onto the catalyst raw material and/or the catalyst particles in at least one of the catalyst particle forming step and the carbon nanotube synthesizing step.

Abstract:
A heat exchanger type reaction tube includes a first tube part that forms a first flow channel into which a feed gas flows and in which the feed gas moves down; a second tube part that forms a second flow channel which is connected to the first flow channel and in which the feed gas moves up and that has a granular catalyst carrying support medium charged therein; and a heating device that heats the first tube part and the second tube part. Then, the first flow channel and the second flow channel are adjacent to each other while being separated from each other by a partition wall, and the second flow channel is provided with a distributor which holds the catalyst carrying support medium and through which the feed gas passes.
