  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-004769",
  "term": "Gas-phase-grown carbon fibres",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "Carbon fibers produced by the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbon gases at elevated temperatures. This method involves introducing a carbon-containing gas over a substrate coated with metal catalyst particles, leading to the growth of filamentous carbon structures. These fibers often exhibit high purity and controlled morphology.",
