Figure 4. The effect of growth time on the morphology and density of 3D-GMOs.

Figure 4

(a) SEM images of the morphologies of 3D-GMOs at growth time of 30 s, 1.5 min, 3 min, 5 min, 8 min, 10 min, respectively. When the growth time is more than 3 min, there exist many graphite microspheres, and more intact graphite microspheres are formed with the growth time increasing. All the scale bars are 5 μm. (b) The mass of 3D-GMOs versus the growth time at 1000°C per 1.0 g Ni catalyst skeletons. (c) The density of 3D-GMOs increases nearly linearly with the growth time from 30 s to 10 min.
