Previous studies using an a-iron catalyst showed that the rate of carbon filament growth was linearly proportional to the gas-phase carbon activity (ac) at lower u,. At higher a, the rate then became nearly independent of the gas-phase carbon activity. It was also reported that y-iron did not show t

## Ahstrct-Iron films formed by thermal decomposition of a solution of ferric nitrate in the presence of mercury vapour, with subsequent reduction of the oxide, were found to induce formation of filamentous carbon during the pyrolysis of methane. The same surface prepared in the absence of mercury
In certain conditions, filamentous fungi are observed to grow exponentially during batch submerged growth. It is shown for three cases, with simple mechanistic models, that an exponential growth assumption is reasonable. The basis of these models is the identification of a growth unit, and a mechani
