The sintering of Pt nanoparticles is one of the main reasons for catalyst deactivation during the high-temperature propane dehydrogenation (PDH) reaction. Promoters and supports have been introduced to prolong the catalyst life. however, it is still necessary to develop novel catalysts with robust stability. Herein, the phosphorus-modified carbon nanotube-supported Pt nanoparticles were employed for the PDH process. Phosphorus modification improves the Pt dispersion, effectively promoting the activity of Pt/P-CNTs. Additionally, the phosphorus-modified CNTs can interact strongly with Pt nanoparticles by improving the electron transfer or hybridization, stabilizing Pt nanoparticles from agglomeration, and significantly enhancing the catalyst stability.
