Synthesis of bimetallic Co–Pt/cellulose nanocomposites for catalytic reduction of p-nitrophenol

The sonochemical synthesis of Co–Pt nanoparticles anchored on cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) was demonstrated. An enhancement in the catalytic activity of the synthesized Co–Pt/CNF nanocomposite catalyst was observed for the reduction of p -NP due to synergy effects.
