Effect of synthesis condition on the structural features of ni-ce bimetallic catalysts supported on functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes

In this paper, screening study in regards to preparation of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (FMWNT)-supported bi-metallic catalyst is discussed. Functional groups such as hydroxyl and carboxylic acid are introduced on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) surface using acid treatment me...
