• methane and ethylene. Though LPG is a commercially viable source for carbon-based nanomaterials, the understanding of the effects of a LPG flame on CNF growth is very limited. Therefore, the present study is to analyze the feasibility of CNF growth in a premixed LPG flame using a one-dimensional flame at

• CNT functionalization for energy storage, nanosensor, and nanocomposite applications, where diameter and crystallinity are influential properties that govern the overall performance of the components. Keywords: carbon nanotubes; crystallinity; flame synthesis; morphology; one-dimensional flame

• term “flat”. The flame height varies according to the equivalence ratio and oxygen concentration of the flame [16]. A separate test showed that the flame loses its one-dimensional characteristics at an O2 concentration below 34%. A previous study showed that the consistency of the one-dimensional flame

• temperature distribution within flame structures yields particles of varying sizes and shapes. Using a one-dimensional flame is expected to increase the controllability of synthesis parameters and to yield more uniform CNT properties. This study explores CNT growth on nickel wire using a one-dimensional
