REAGENT COMPLEXES AND METHOD FOR SYNTHESIS OF REAGENT COMPLEXES

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reagent and its method of production.;SOLUTION: The reagent includes at least one zero-valent atom, which can be a metal, metalloid or non-metal, complexed with at least one hydride molecule. The method of production includes ball-milling a mixture which includes an elemental (i.e., zero-valent) material and a hydride. In some cases, the elemental material is a non-metal such as carbon. The reagent can be useful as a reagent for the synthesis of elemental nanoparticles composed of a zero-valent metal, metalloid or non-metal.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT
