Abstract

The Mo2C/C composite material was synthesized by the sol-gel method using molybdenum blue dispersions. Carbon nanotubes treated with HCl (acid treatment) and a mixture of H2SO4 and HNO3 (liquid-phase oxidation) were used as the carbon support. Samples of finished supports and composites were characterized by X-ray phase analysis, transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and low temperature nitrogen adsorption to determine phase composition, surface morphology, and porous parameters. It was established that the content of molybdenum carbide in a composite material is affected by the electrical surface properties of carbon nanotubes and molybdenum blue nanoparticles.
