We report an efficient process to dehydrogenate formaldehyde in alkaline solution, catalyzed by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via a unique reaction mechanism involving molecular O2. The superior catalytic performance of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) compared to the other carbon-based catalysts is attributed to...
