Abstract: The structure of filamentous carbon formed upon catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons on iron subgroup metals and their alloys is considered. The regularities of the deposition of carbon on these metals are generalised. The carbide cycle mechanism of carbon formation is considered in detail. The growth models of some morphological modifications of filamentous carbon are discussed. The bibliography includes 151 references.
