Synthesis of Ru Icosahedral Nanocages with a Face-Centered-Cubic Structure and Evaluation of Their Catalytic Properties

Journal Article Zhao, Ming ; Xu, Lang ; Vara, Madeline ; ... - ACS Catalysis

Owing to the presence of {111} facets, twin boundaries, and strain fields on the surface, noble-metal nanocrystals with an icosahedral shape have been reported with stellar performance toward an array of catalytic reactions. Here, we report the successful synthesis of Ru icosahedral nanocages with a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure by conformally coating Pd icosahedral seeds with ultrathin Ru shells, followed by selective removal of the Pd cores via chemical etching. We discovered that the presence of bromide ions was critical to the layer-by-layer deposition of Ru atoms. According to in situ XRD, the fcc structure in the Ru nanocages couldmore »« less

Annual Report: Fuels (30 September 2012)

Technical Report Link, Dirk ; Morreale, Bryan

The thermochemical conversion of fossil fuels through gasification will likely be the cornerstone of future energy and chemical processes due to its flexibility to accommodate numerous feeds (coal, biomass, natural gas, municipal waste, etc.) and to produce a variety of products (heat, specialty chemicals, power, etc.), as well as the inherent nature of the process to facilitate near zero emissions. Currently, the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) Fuels Program has two pathways for syngas utilization: The production of transportation fuels, chemicals, or chemical intermediates.

Facile Synthesis of Ru-Based Octahedral Nanocages with Ultrathin Walls in a Face-Centered Cubic Structure

Journal Article Zhao, Ming ; Elnabawy, Ahmed O. ; Vara, Madeline ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

Noble-metal nanocages with ultrathin (less than 2 nm) walls and well-defined facets have received great interest owing to their remarkable utilization efficiency of atoms and facet-dependent catalytic activities toward various reactions. Here, we report the synthesis of Ru-based octahedral nanocages covered by {111} facets, together with ultrathin walls in a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure rather than the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) of bulk Ru. The involvement of slow injection for the Ru(III) precursor, the introduction of KBr, and the use of elevated temperature were all instrumental to the formation of Pd@Ru core–shell octahedra with a conformal, uniform shell and a smoothmore »« less

Ru nanoframes with an fcc structure and enhanced catalytic properties

Journal Article Ye, Haihang ; Wang, Qingxiao ; Catalano, Massimo ; ... - Nano Letters

Noble-metal nanoframes are of great interest to many applications due to their unique open structures. Among various noble metals, Ru has never been made into nanoframes. In this study, we report for the first time an effective method based on seeded growth and chemical etching for the facile synthesis of Ru nanoframes with high purity. The essence of this approach is to induce the preferential growth of Ru on the corners and edges of Pd truncated octahedra as the seeds by kinetic control. The resultant Pd–Ru core–frame octahedra could be easily converted to Ru octahedral nanoframes of ~2 nm inmore »« less

Ruthenium-Platinum Thin Film Analysis Using Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction

Technical Report Jones, L.

Ruthenium (Ru, Z = 44) is a Platinum Group Metal that has a standard hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystalline structure. Platinum (Pt, Z = 78) has a face-centered cubic (FCC) crystalline structure. When these metals are co-sputtered onto a silicon substrate, creating a few nm-thin film, they form an alloy with a combination of HCP and FCC structure. Direct methanol fuel cells rely on an anode catalyst to draw hydrogen from liquid methanol. Highly efficient fuel cells based on polymer electrolyte catalysts, known as proton-exchange membrane fuel cells, have been developed, but require large amounts of a costly platinum catalyst.more »« less
