Title: Anchoring carbon nanotubes and post-hydroxylation treatment enhanced Ni nanofiber catalysts towards efficient hydrous hydrazine decomposition for effective hydrogen generation

Abstract

For effective hydrogen generation with remarkable durability, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) grown on Ni nanofibers and their post hydroxylation treatment engendered active Ni nanofiber catalysts an efficient decomposition of hydrous hydrazine with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 19.4 h-1 and an activation energy down to 51.05 KJ mol-1.
