Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 化學系 === 98 === We study the effect of oxygen incorporation in carbon nanotube for the application as catalyst support in methanol oxidation reation (MOR). We dope oxygen into the microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition during the CNT growth; oxygen-containing functional groups can form on the side wall of the CNTs, which can enhance the catalystical activity of platinum in MOR. By comparing the activity of Pt/OCNT with different oxygen content, an 80% increasment in the activity has been achieved with oxygen incorporation. Detailed Raman, FTIR, XPS, TEM EELS analysis and long-term stability test have been performed on the Pt/OCNTs for MOR.
