| Abstract: | Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized by catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD) method. The synthesized CNTs was purified by acid (H2SO4 and HNO3) treatment to improve metal deposition on to CNTs surface, platinum multiwall (Pt-MWCNTs) nanocomposites were then produced by wet impregnation of the platinum onto surface of the MWCNTs. Surface morphology, chenmical composition and crystallographic structure of the obtained Pt-MWCNTs nanocomposites were confirmed by Sacnning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET). |
