Abstract:
CNT surface chemistry dictates NiBDC growth and UOR performance. -OH groups preserve the CNT structure and enhance electron transfer; -NH2 triggers carbothermal reduction to Ni0, disrupting graphitic order; and pristine CNTs provide weak π-π interactions. The -OH catalyst achieves 10 mA cm-2 at 1.328 V, establishing a key surface-activity relationship.
