Abstract
A one-pot microwave-assisted synthesis method was developed to produce carbon nanofiber (CNF) supported platinum (Pt) catalyst nanoparticles as potential electrode materials for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). CNF-supported Pt (Pt/CNF) hybrid structures were prepared through electrospinning of poly(acrylonitrile-co-N-vinylpyrrolidone) (P(AN-co-nVP)) copolymer containing PtCl2 as a precursor and subsequent microwave-assisted chemical reduction in hydrazine hydrate solution and carbonization. First, the effect of carbonization temperatures (600 to 1000
