Reaktionsschritte

1-Pyrenecarboxylic acid (1-PCA, 250 mg) was stirred in ethanol (400 mL) for 30 minutes. Herringbone-type carbon nanofiber (CNF, 500 mg) was added to the 1-PCA solution and stirred for 6 hours. Then, CNF doped with 1-PCA was recovered through filtration under reduced pressure. 1-PCA was introduced to CNF in order to form π-π interaction between pyrene and graphene of CNF. The 1-PCA-doped CNF has a hydrophilic surface and allows easy supporting of platinum. The 1-PCA-doped CNF (140 mg) was added to ethylene glycol (25 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes. Then, after adding NaOH (100 mg), the mixture was further stirred for 10 minutes. The concentration of NaOH was 0.1 M. NaOH serves to adjust pH for control of the platinum particle size. Subsequently, after adding PtCl4 (150 mg) and stirring for about 10 minutes, the mixture was refluxed at 160° C. for 3 hours. Then, platinum ions are reduced and adsorbed on the surface of CNF. In order to further increase the supporting ratio, after stirring at room temperature for 12 hours, the solution was further stirred for 24 hours after lowering pH to 1-2. The resulting solution was filtered under reduced pressure and washed several times with ultrapure water. The recovered catalyst was dried at 160° C. for 1 hour to remove impurities.
