[0050] Preparation Example 1: Preparation of Carbon Nanotubes

[0051] At 100 °C, 0.25 g of SWNT(CNI) and 0.09 g of NiCl as a nickel catalyst precursor 2 ·6H 2 O(or Ni(CH 3 COO) 2 ) was mixed with 100 g of water and 80 g of ethylene glycol for 24 hours. The liquid mixture is then dried. Subsequently, the dried mixture was subjected to thermal vapor deposition using acetylene gas at 650°C. As secondary growth, MWNTs were grown for 10 minutes to prepare carbon nanotubes.

[0059] Embodiment 1: the preparation of fuel cell

[0060] 0.5 g of the carbon nanotubes of Preparation Example 1 were put into a plastic tape. Independently, the 0.9616gH 2 PtCl 6 Dissolve in 1.5ml acetone. The solution was poured into a plastic strip containing the carbon nanotubes and mixed.

[0061] The mixture was air-dried for 4 hours and then placed in a crucible. The mixture in the crucible was dried overnight in a desiccator at 60°C. Next, the crucible was heat-treated at 60°C for 12 hours, at 200°C for 5 hours, and at 250°C for 2 hours, and then nitrogen was supplied to the crucible for 10 minutes. Then, while raising the temperature to 200° C., hydrogen was supplied to the crucible instead of nitrogen. The temperature was maintained at 200°C for 2 hours to reduce the platinum chloride on the carbon support. Subsequently, nitrogen was supplied into the crucible instead of hydrogen, and then the temperature was increased to 250°C at 5°C / min. The temperature ...

Abstract

The present invention provides a carbon nanotube, the manufacturing method comprises its supporting catalyst and fuel cell using the same. Said method for manufacturing the carbon nanotube comprises: depositing metallic catalyst for generating multi-walled nanotube in the single wall nanotube; and growing multi-walled nanotube on the single wall nanotube by using the metallic catalyst for generating multi-walled nanotube. The carbon nanotube of the invention has satisfying specific surface and low sheet resistance. Thus said carbon nanotube has more excellent performance than general catalystsupport. Thus, the carbon nanotube can improve the conductivity of the fuel cell when taken as catalyst support of the electrode of the fuel cell. Furthermore, the fuel cell adopting said electrode has excellent efficiency and integrate capacity.

Description
