| The precious metal nanoparticles/carbon nanotubes (NPs/CNTs) nanocomposites possess excellent electrical, magnetic, optical, and catalytic properties, and can be applied in heterogeneous catalysis, fuel cells, chemo/biosensors, antibacterial materials and composite materials. The characteristics and research status of precious metal NPs/CNTs were summarized. The precious metal NPs/CNTs can be synthesized by electroless and electrochemical deposition and some physical methods. The precious metal NPs/CNTs nanocomposites are expected to be applied in the fields of energy, environment and biochemistry, et al. |
