Abstract

Hyperbranched poly(ferrocenylsilanes) were synthesized. Novel carbon nanorod and nanotube were prepared through the pyrolysis of the resultant hyperbranched poly(ferrocenylsilanes) self-catalyzed precursor at different pyrolysis conditions. The possible catalytic growth mechanism of carbon nanorod and nanotube was discussed.
