| Abstract | Al1.8Fe0.2O3 solid solutions have been prepared as amorphous, η (cubic) and α (corundum) phases. The oxides have been reduced in a H2–CH4 gas mixture at 900 or 1000 °C, giving rise to composite powders containing alumina, α- and γ-Fe, Fe3C and different forms of carbon including nanotubes, thick tubes and spheroidal particles. The powders have been investigated using a combination of chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and specific surface area measurements. Using the stable form (corundum) of Al1.8Fe0.2O3 as starting material favours the formation of carbon nanotubes compared to the other forms of carbon. This could partly result from the fact that the metal nanoparticles formed upon reduction of the α solid solution, which act as a catalyst for CH4 decomposition and possibly nanotube nucleation, are smaller than when using amorphous or η solid solutions. Moreover, the crystallization of these latter compounds during the reduction in some way provokes the entrapment of carbon within the oxide grains. The nanotubes, most of which are less than 10 nm in diameter, are arranged in bundles several tens of micrometers long. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
