An efficient and easy method is described which allows modification of supported nanocarbon films with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from an aqueous colloidal suspension. Subsequently CNTs can be decorated with Pt-nanoparticles directly from an aqueous solution of Pt ions without the need for reducing agents. High performance supercapacitors and electrocatalysts are obtained.

Advanced electrical conductors that outperform copper and aluminum can revolutionize our lives by enabling billions of dollars in energy savings facilitating a transition to an electric mobility future. Nanocarbons (carbon nanotubes graphene) present unique opportunity for developing advanced power, communications, electronics, machines the defense, energy, automotive industries. Herein, major ...

This talk starts with a review of the different strategies to incorporate nanocarbons (CNTs, graphene) inpolymer matrices and their relative merit in terms of mechanical reinforcement, improvement inelectrical/thermal conductivity and emergence of other functional properties, such as sensingcapabilities [1] [2]. Three types of nanocomposites are discussed: the first type corresponds...

Carbon and noble metal nanomaterials exhibit unique properties that have been explored over the last few decades for developing electrochemical sensors and biosensors. Hybridization of nanometals to carbon nanomaterials such as graphene or carbon nanotubes produces a synergistic effect on the electrocatalytic activity when compared to either material alone. However, to date there are no compara...

Nanocarbons (graphite, tube, diamond) were used as highly efficient catalyst for styrene synthesis from oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. Long-time stability and outstanding performance suggested a much more promising future for industrialization of nanocarbon. Metal-free nanocarbons are not highly active for NH3 decomposition while residual metal nanoparticles in commercial CNTs could...
