Polypyrrole-multi walled carbon nanotube hybrid material supported Pt NPs for hydrogen evolution from the hydrolysis of MeAB at mild conditions.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report a facile method for the preparation of polypyrrole-multi walled carbon nanotube hybrid material including Pt nanoparticles (Pt@PPy-MWCNT NPs) and the use in methylamine borane (MeAB) for hydrolysis reaction at mild conditions. The prepared catalyst of Pt@PPy-MWCNT NPs was characterized by some advanced analytical methods. The catalytic experiments showed the Pt@PPy-MWCNT NPs can catalyze MeAB in aquatic solution with high catalytical performance at mild conditions. The reaction rate of catalytic hydrolysis with Pt@PPy-MWCNT NPs was found to be -d[CH₃NH₂BH₃]/dt = + d[H₂]/3dt = k_obs[Pt@PPy-MWCNT]^1.19 [MeAB]^0.88. The TOF value for the hydrolysis of MeAB catalyzed with Pt@PPy-MWCNT NPs was detected t
