CNT content reported by manufacturer. MW-P and MW-F calculated assuming no amorphous carbon remaining.
Metal content reported by manufacturer except for MW-F and MW-P determined using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and MW-15G using thermogravimetric analysis.
MW-15 annealed at ~2000°C in UHP He.
Synthesized using arc method; all others are CVD.
Obtained from TEM images; all others reported by manufacturer.
