Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is viewed as a viable electrocatalyst candidate for alcohol oxidation due to the comparable catalytic activity and high poisoning-resistance. Facial synthesis and highly loading capacity of efficient AuNPs catalyst is highly anticipated for alcohol fuel cells. Herein, tiny AuNPs without any surfactant are synthesized

successfully via air/water interfacial reaction and anchored in-suit on the surfaces of supported carbon nanotubes in high density. The resultant freestanding composite thin films could

be used directly as electrode materials and modify stably electrode with

improved stability and operation feasibility. Moreover, the achieved composite

film on the modified electrode exhibit efficient electrocatalytic ability for

alcohol oxidation, mainly due to abundant active sites and facile electron

transfer. This work may expand the scope of cost-effective electrocatalyst for alcohol

fuel cells.
