Abstract: | Multi-walled carbon-nanotubes (MWCNTs) are drawing increasing attention in recent years. This material possesses a series
of unique features, such as its nanometer-sized channel, highly conductive graphitized tube-wall, sp
2-C-constructed surface, and excellent performance for adsorption and spillover of hydrogen, which make the MWCNTs full of
promise to be a novel catalyst support or promoter. This article will review the recent progress in applied research of MWCNTs
as a novel promoter in heterogeneous catalysis for active components, including metals and their oxides, with the emphasis
on the study and development of MWCNT-promoted catalysts related to CO/CO2 hydrogenation to alcohols and dimethyl ether based on the recent works carried out in our laboratory. |
