Commercial CNT fabrication is hindered by its production costs including carbon sources, catalysts, and energy. Stainless steel is potential for CNT fabrication as Fe and Ni contents function as substrate and catalyst. Stainless steel is prepared with HCl 37,8 and 850 oC oxidative heat treatment for 30 minutes. This study aims at identifying oxidative heat treatment effect on stainless steel in CNT formation performed using the carbon sources of acetylene and camphor. 304 stainless steel substrates are varied including foil, plate, and wiremesh. By using acetylene for 20 minutes results in carbon loss above 90 increasing the Cr inhibiting the formation of nano particles catalyst. The addition of ferrocene decrease the carbon loss up to 30 and CNT of 0,0573 gram 0,0701 gram and 0,1246 gram are formed in foil, plate, and wiremesh.

"Stainless Steel (SS) is the potential substrate in Carbon Nanotube (CNT) synthesis; Iron (Fe) and Nickel (Ni) content make SS function doubly as substrate and catalyst. In this study, SS is prepared with chloride acid, HCl (37.8%) and oxidative heat treatment (OHT) at 850oC for 30 minutes. This study aims to identify the effect of OHT on SS in CNT’s formation. The identification is done by using carbon sources of acetylene and camphor. The substrate of SS 304 is varied into foil, plate and wire mesh. The result of using acetylene for 20 minutes in respect of the three variations produces carbon loss of over 90%. This is due to an increase in the Cr percentage which inhibits the formation of the catalyst’s nanoparticles. With the help of ferrocene foil substrate, plate, and wire mesh, the CNT produced are 0.0573 gram, 0.0701 gram, and 0.1246 gram along with a reduction in carbon loss to 30%. The use of the substrate of SS 316 with lower Cr content and additional time of synthesis to 60 minutes yields the mass of 0.6325 gram and carbon loss of 2.76%. By using camphor for 60 minutes, the identification results in an increase of CNT mass in SS 304 of 0.831 for foil, 1.856 for plate and 2.6305 for wire mesh. Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) is used to identify the carbon form on the surface of the SS while Gas Chromatography Flame Ionization Detector (GC-FID) is used to identify the acetylene decomposition. Based on this experiment, SS 304 and 316 type along with the OHT preparation method can be used easily as an effective substrate to produce CNT."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pelapisan nikel dengan metode impregnasi basah pada substrat katalitik stainless steel 316 terhadap yield dan kualitas carbon nanotube CNT berbasis limbah polipropilena PP menggunakan reaktor flame synthesis. Dilakukan variasi loading nikel sebesar 0 , 5 dan 10 . Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pelapisan nikel dapat meningkatkan yield CNT namun tidak signifikan, yaitu hanya sebesar 8,4. Akan tetapi, hasil CNT yang dihasilkan dari pelapisan nikel dengan loading 10 pada substrat SS 316 memiliki kualitas yang lebih baik. Dari hasil XRD, CNT terdeteksi pada peak intensitas 2 = 26° dan 43°, serta masih terdeteksi beberapa pengotor berupa grafit, Fe3O4, Fe3C, dan NiO pada ketiga sampel. Hasil SEM menunjukkan CNT lebih banyak terbentuk pada substrat dengan loading nikel 10 , dan ketiga sampel masih terdapat karbon amorf dan pengotor lain. Hasil EDX menunjukkan persen berat karbon dari sampel CNT yang tumbuh pada substrat loading nikel 10 lebih tinggi dari sampel lain, yaitu 74,07. Pada hasil TGA, pelapisan nikel dapat meningkatkan stabilitas termal CNT karena CNT mengalami penurunan persen massa pada suhu oksidasi sebesar 620oC. Karena peningkatan yield yang tidak signifikan pada limbah PP, dilakukan uji pelapisan nikel pada substrat stainless steel dengan sumber karbon kamper. Yield yang dihasilkan juga tidak signifikan, hanya sebesar 6,8. Namun, kualitas CNT yang dihasilkan justru mengalami peningkatan, baik dari segi diameter kristal yang menjadi semakin kecil sebesar 8,08 nm, komposisi karbon yang meningkat sebesar 83,06, maupun stabilitas termal yang meningkat dengan suhu oksidasi sebesar 723°C. Oleh karena itu, pelapisan nikel dapat meningkatkan yield meskipun tidak signifikan serta dapat meningkatkan kualitas CNT.

This research aims to determine the effect of nickel coating on 316 stainless steel catalytic substrate by wet impregnation method on the yield and quality of polypropylene waste based carbon nanotube CNT using a flame synthesis reactor. The effect of nickel loading was studied at 0 , 5 and 10 . The results showed nickel coating increase CNT yield by 8.4 . However, CNT with 10 nickel loading offered the best yield and quality.. From the XRD results, CNT was detected at peak intensities of 2 26° and 43°, and still detected some impurities such as amorphous carbon, Fe3O4, Fe3C and NiO.

From the SEM results showed that more CNT were produced on substrate with 10 nickel loading. EDX result shows that the carbon weight percentage from CNT with 10 nickel loading substrate is higher than other samples, which is 74.10 . In the TGA results, nickel coating can increase the thermal stability of CNT because CNT mass has decreased at an oxidation temperature of 620oC. Because the CNT yield from PP waste is not significant, nickel coating on substrates is tested with camphor as carbon sources.

The yield produced is also insignificant by 6.8 . However, the quality of CNT is increased, in terms of crystal diameter which became smaller by 8.08 nm, the composition of carbon which increased by 83.06 , and the thermal stability which increased with an oxidation temperature of 723°C. Therefore, nickel coating can increase yield even it is not significant and can improve the quality of CNT."

The increase in electric power causes the energy efficiency of the electrolytic cell to decrease. The best electrode variation is the variation of electrode 2 which is in the form of a three-pronged Stainless Steel 316 rod with the smallest electrical resistance value of 5,4216 Ω and the highest total production rate of hydrogen gas produced is 1,328 mL/s with a yield of 50% at 2,5 M NaCl concentration, and produces an energy efficiency value of 39%; 24%; 18%; 14%; 11% and 10% for each variation of electric voltage 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 20 V, with a purity level of hydrogen gas of 97,54%."

"Pada penelitian nanofluida yang dilakukan akhir-akhir ini molekul Carbon Nanotube (CNT) merupakan salah satu molekul nano yang sering digunakan, hal ini karena CNT memiliki nilai konduktivitas termal yang tinggi dan memiliki karakterisasi yang unggul, CNT sendiri dibagi menjadi dua jenis berlapisan tunggal atau single-walled CNT (SWCNT) dan multi-walled (MWCNT). Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan MWCNT as-received yang dikarakterisasi dengan menggunakan Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) dan Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Nanofluida berbasis CNT disintesis dengan menambahkan konsentrasi CNT sebesar 0,1%, 0,3%, dan 0,5% serta surfaktan sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) sebanyak 10%, 20%, dan 30% pada fluida dasar yaitu air distilasi yang kemudian didispersikan menggunakann alat ultrasonikasi selama 15 menit. Kemudian nanofluida akan dikarakterisasi nilai zeta potensial dan konduktivitas termalnya di suhu ruang (25oC). nanofluida sebanyak 100ml yang sudah dikarakterisasi kemudian akan digunakan untuk proses quenching atau perlakuan panas pada baja S45C, sebelumnya baja S45C sudah diaustenisasi di suhu 900oC. Baja S45C hasil perlakuan panas akan dikarakterisasi menggunakan mikroskop optik dan rockwell hardness C. Penambahan konsentrasi CNT tanpa surfaktan pada nanofluida menaikan konduktivitas termal nanofluida, namun penambahan surfaktan konsentrasi tinggi (10%, 20%, dan 30%) pada nanofluida menurunkan konduktivtas termal nanofluida. Nilai zeta potensial dari nanofluida meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya konsentrasi surfaktan, zeta potensial dapat mengukur stabilitas nanofluida. Hubungan konduktivitas termal dan kekerasan baja S45C hasil perlakuan panas menggunakan nanofluida tidak dapat dihubungkan secara linier walaupun terlihat tren semakin tinggi konduktivitas termal, maka nilai kekerasan akan semakin tinggi. Hal tersebut terjadi karena proses perlakuan panas dilakukan di temperatur tinggi yang dapat mempengaruhi stabilitas nanofluida. Mikrostruktur Baja S45C hasil perlakuan panas dengan media quench dengan konsentrasi SDBS 0% hingga 10% memiliki mikrostruktur yang didominasi martensite, sedangkan untuk konsentrasi SDBS 20-30% mikrostruktur baja didominasi dengan pearlite, ferrite dan sedikit widmanstätten ferrite.

In recent nanofluid research, Carbon Nanotube (CNT) are one of the nano-molecules that are often used in studies, this is because CNT’s have a high thermal conductivity value and have superior characterization. There are two kinds of CNT, Single-walled CNT (SWCNT) and multi-walled (MWCNT). In this study, the as-received MWCNT is characterized by using Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). CNT-based nanofluids were synthesized by adding 0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5% CNT and as much as 10%, 20%, and 30% surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) in the base fluid, namely distilled water which was then dispersed. using ultrasonication tool for 15 minutes. Then the nanofluid will be characterized by its zeta potential value and thermal conductivity at room temperature (25oC). 100ml of nanofluid that has been characterized will then be used for the quenching process or heat treatment on S45C steel, previously S45C steel has been austenized at 900oC. Heat treated S45C steel will be characterized using an optical microscope and rockwell hardness C. The addition of CNT concentrations without surfactants in nanofluids increased the thermal conductivity of nanofluids, but the addition of high concentrations of surfactants (10%, 20%, and 30%) in nanofluids decreased the thermal conductivity of nanofluids. The zeta potential value of nanofluids increases with increasing surfactant concentration, the zeta potential can measure the stability of nanofluids. The relationship between thermal conductivity and hardness of the heat treated S45C steel cannot be linearly related, although the trend is that the higher the thermal conductivity, the higher the hardness value. This happens because the heat treatment process is carried out at high temperatures which can affect the stability of the nanofluid. The microstructure of the heat treated S45C steel with nanofluids quenchant with a concentration of 0% to 10% SDBS has a predominantly martensite microstructure, while for an SDBS 20-30% concentration the steel microstructure is dominated by pearlite, ferrite and a little widmanstätten ferrite."
