MWCNT activation and its influence on the catalytic performance of Pt/MWCNT catalysts for selective hydrogenation

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes were submitted to three activation procedures: nitric acid oxidation, ball-milling and air oxidation. The influence of these treatments on nanotubes surface chemistry and morphology was evaluated by XPS, Raman and infrared spectroscopy, TGA, TPD, nitrogen adsorption and...
