Nanofibers are able to form a highly porous mesh and their large surface to volume ratio improves performance for many applications. Organic-inorganic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-cobalt (H) chloride hexahydrate nanofiber composites were prepared by electrospinning method. The structure and physical-chemical properties of the novel nanofiber composites are characterized by SEM, EDX and MR. The SEM results showed the morphology of the fibers and EDX was given the composition of the nanocomposite catalysts. The nanofibers loaded with metal catalysts are used for the hydrogen production by directly mixing with NaBH4 and water. The novel PVDF nanofiber composites catalyst has shown the stability and given the promising results for the quick production of hydrogen. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
