Abstract

An array of aligned, multiwalled carbon nanotubes, electrodeposited with nanoparticulate Pt, yields a high surface area electrocatalyst that displays remarkably sustained, high activity and atom-efficiency during methanol oxidation. Despite its apparent delicacy, the array does not noticeably degrade under conditions of vigorous and rapid bubble formation during hydrogen reduction catalysis.
