Low-temperature synthesis and characterization of helical carbon fibers by one-step chemical vapour deposition

- HCNFs were synthesized by one-step CVD using cupric tartrate as a catalyst at temperature below 500 °C.
- The synthesis of HCNFs is highly temperature-dependent at the synthesis temperature of 280-480 °C.
- The addition of HCNFs makes a noticeable contribution to the reinforcement of NR/CB system.
