Application

A highly active homogeneous catalyst can be formed from ruthenium(III) acetylacetonate during the dehydrogenation of ammonia–borane, which results in the rapid generation of hydrogen gas.It can be used as a catalyst in the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride at low concentrations and room temperature.It can also be used as a precursor to synthesize Ru-based nanomaterials which can be applied in the field of supercapacitors and catalysis.

Owing to their highly open structure and a large number of low-coordination sites on the surface, noble-metal nanoframes are intriguing for catalytic applications. Here, we demonstrate the rational synthesis of Ru cuboctahedral nanoframes with enhanced catalytic performance toward hydrazine decomposition.
