Hello hoola,

 

Thank you for being curious for my project.

 

I am trying to mix helium, nitrogen and argon gases to produce carbon SWNTs.

 

Therefore, the chamber or furnace and flow pipes have to be secure and strong enough to withstand high pressures.

 

Thanks

I'm not very familiar with your local hardware stores.

You could start with a pressure chamber(pressurized storage tank)

This chamber would need to be pressurized above the storage pressure of the individual gasses, to a pressure that would cause solidification.

 

Unless controlled this may only result in a mass of SWNTs that don't resemble any useful form.
