14. This yield was estimated from TEM measurements. Unlike other samples, the CNTs in the cathode deposit seem to be more easily damaged by the boiling acid treatment, and the final cooked soot is more soluble in water. Therefore, the yield can not be accurately measured by the boiling acid method.
