Abstract

Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been synthesized on a carbon fiber paper (CFP) via a simple surface reaction of hydrocarbon decomposition using nickel nanoparticles as catalysts at 1023 K. Pd nanoparticles supported on MWCNTs/CFP are used as electrocatalysts for ethanol electrooxidation in alkaline media. The results shows that the Pd/MWCNTs/CFP electrocatalyst gives higher reaction activity and more stable performance than the commercial Pd/C and Pd/CFP electrocatalyst for ethanol oxidation in alkaline medium.
