English abstract Allotropic carbon forms such as fullerenes, nanotubes and graphene, have received a notable attention by the scientific community due to their unique configuration and interesting chemical and physical properties. In this respect, carbon nanotubes and other allotropic forms were synthesized through chemical vapour deposition. The reaction was carried out in a tubular furnace by the catalytic reaction of ferrocene/ethanol solution onto an Inconel 600 substrate. Variation on the synthesis conditions were performed for their production. The presence of double- and few-walled nanotubes grown in bundle arrays was observed. However, the presence of other carbon structures such as graphene, graphitic onions and graphene nanoribbons were observed through electron microscopy
