Fabrication of mesoporous metal oxide coated-nanocarbon hybrid materials via a polyol-mediated self-assembly process.
After clarifying the formation mechanism of a typical metal glycolate precipitate, Ti glycolate, in a polyol-mediated synthesis using acetone as a precipitation medium, we describe a simple template-free approach based on an ethylene glycol-mediated synthesis to fabricate mesoporous metal oxide coated-nanocarbon hybrid materials including TiO₂ coated-carbon nanotube (CNT), SnO₂ coated-CNT, Cu₂O...
متن کاملRemarkable support effect of SWNTs in Pt catalyst for methanol electrooxidation
Carbon nanotubes have been proposed as advanced metal catalyst support for electrocatalysis. In this work, different carbon support materials including single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and XC-72 carbon black, were compared in terms of their electrochemical properties using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The ...
متن کاملA green and high energy density asymmetric supercapacitor based on ultrathin MnO2 nanostructures and functional mesoporous carbon nanotube electrodes.
A green asymmetric supercapacitor with high energy density has been developed using birnessite-type ultrathin porous MnO(2) nanoflowers (UBMNFs) as positive electrode and functional mesoporous carbon nanotubes (FMCNTs) as negative electrode in 1 M Na(2)SO(4) electrolyte. Both of the electrode materials possess excellent electrochemical performances, with high surface areas and narrow pore size ...
متن کاملRational preparation of faceted platinum nanocrystals supported on carbon nanotubes with remarkably enhanced catalytic performance.
Faceted platinum nanocrystals supported on carbon nanotubes were prepared using NO2- as a crucial shape-controlling agent. The composites exhibit high electrochemical catalytic activity for oxygen reduction facilitated by the cooperation between the Pt{111} facets and atomic steps, and extremely high selectivity for the oxidation of glycerol to glyceraldehyde.
متن کاملGrowth of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Using Germanium Nanocrystals Formed by Implantation
This paper presents a complementary metal oxide semiconductor compatible method for the chemical vapor deposition of singlewalled carbon nanotubes SWNTs . The method uses Ge implantation into a SiO2 layer to create Ge nanocrystals, which are then used to produce SWNTs. The results of atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy analyses indicate that Ge implantation provides good co...
