摘要
A new catalyst for efficient production of H-2 from CH4 without CO2 emission has been requested. We prepared highly-dispersed Pd nanoparticles on single wall carbon nanohorn (Pd-SWCNH) and on oxidized SWCNH (Pd-oxSWCNH) without an anti-aggregation agent. The Pd nanoparticle size on SWCNH and oxSWCNH determined by electron microscopy are around 2.5 and 2.7 nm, respectively. Each sample provides efficiently H-2 and hollow carbon nanofibers through CH4 decomposition. The H-2 release over the Pd-dispersed SWCNH samples starts from ca. 820 K and is quite large amount compared with a commercial Pd-activated carbon. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
