Synthesis of Ni@MWCNTs Magnetic Nanocatalysts and their Catalytic Activity towards 4-Nitrophenol Reduction

Abstract:

A well-dispersed Ni nanoparticles on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Ni@MWCNTs) was prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method using a vacuum quartz tube furnace at the temperature of 600°C. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were performed to characterize the synthesized catalyst. It shows an unfirom dispersion of Ni nanoparticles on MWCNTs with the average particle size of 8.6 nm. The as synthesized catalyst was applied in a redox reaction of 4-nitrophenol, which showed very high catalytic activity, stability and well conversion. The catalyst can be easily separated due to the magnetical performance
