Abstract: Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with different microstructures were synthesized as the support of Pt catalyst for decalin dehydrogenation to evolve pure hydrogen. The results show that in a liquid-film state at the temperature of 240°C for reactor external heating, 5wt% Pt catalyst supported on platelet CNFs gives a TOF of 732.4mol H2/mol metal in 2h. The microstructure of CNFs and the metal particle size have great impact on the performance of the catalyst for the reaction. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
