Ultrafine copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) within porous silica nanospheres (Cu@SiO2) were prepared via a simple one-pot synthetic route in reverse micelle system and characterized by SEM, TEM, EDX, XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, CO-TPD, XPS ICP methods. The results show that ultrafine Cu NPs with diameter of around 2 nm are effectively embedded the center well-proportioned spherical SiO2 about 25 diameter. Compared to commercial supported NPs, free synthesized core-shell Cu@SiO2 exhibit...

Hydrogen (H2), a regenerable and promising energy carrier, acts as an essential role in the construction of sustainable system. Formic acid (HCOOH, FA), natural biological metabolic products also accessible through carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction, has great potential to serve prospective H2 supplier for fuel cell. Herein, ultrafine electron-rich IrPdAu alloy nanoparticles with size 1.4 nm are highly dispersed on amine-modified mesoporous SiO2 (NH2-SBA-15) used active selective catalyst fast...
