Au Based Ni and Co Bimetallic Core Shell Nanocatalysts for Room Temperature Selective Decomposition of Hydrous Hydrazine to Hydrogen

摘要

abstract_textpNickel and Cobalt bimetallic catalysts with Au as core metal has been synthesized and demonstrated for hydrazine decomposition reaction for producing hydrogen. Gold-cobalt and gold nickel bimetallic system belonging to the class of strained structures with high lattice mismatch of approximately 14 are demonstrated for synergistic effects atypical of monometallic counterparts for the selective decomposition of hydrous hydrazine to H-2 with N-2 as the other product at room temperature./p/abstract_text
