Abstract

Pt-supported on ZIF-8 derived porous carbon (CZIF8) and nitrogen-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (NCNT) composites was prepared by pyrolysis process and chemical reduction. The electrochemical characterization and morphological analysis of composites was measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). These results indicate that the Pt-NCNT@CZIF8 nanocomposite showed electrochemically superior properties to methanol oxidation reaction and the higher electrochemical surface area (ECSA). Also, ZIF-8 derived carbon and modified the CNTs was thought to enhance the effective area of the platinum deposition site.
