Popis: In the present study, hybrids of gold nanoparticle-decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized through an effective, green and facile method, using molybdophosphoric acid. This polyoxometalate with exciting properties was used as reducing agent in the synthesis of stabilized gold nanoparticles and also linking them to the CNTs at ambient temperature. The prepared nanohybrids were characterized by TGA, XRD, FTIR, Raman, and TEM techniques. Using this method, a yield of 17% in CNTs decoration with a well distribution of nanoparticles is satisfactorily achieved within 8 h.
