Immobilizing Ni nanoparticles to mesoporous silica with size and location control via a polyol-assisted route for coking- and sintering-resistant dry reforming of methane

摘要

The highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles in mesoporous silica were achieved via using polyol as new delivery conveyors and removable carbon templates. The catalyst exhibits excellent coking- and sintering-resistance in dry reforming of methane attributed to the controlled size and location of Ni nanoparticles.
