Average lateral size of nano-features less than 60 nm (after heating) were shown to favor mainly the carbon nanotube growth while a larger features size was associated predominantly to the carbon nanofiber synthesis.
Physical fractionation, in contrast to chemical fractionation, allows for isolation of fractions, can isolate as intact as possible the SOC associated predominantly with soil minerals (primary organo-mineral complexes) and also the SOC protected within aggregates (secondary organo-mineral complexes) due to their three-dimensional architecture (Straathof et al. 2014).
