Abstract

Abstract : Co–Mo bimetallic alloy nanoparticles immobilized on CeO2 prepared via sodium naphthalenide-driven reduction exhibit efficient and stable catalytic activity for ammonia synthesis. Abstract : We report the synthesis of Co–Mo alloy nanoparticles with a uniform distribution of the alloy elements on CeO2 via sodium naphthalenide-driven reduction. The resulting sample functions as a highly efficient and stable catalyst for ammonia synthesis. Based on the metal weight, the catalytic activity is ca. 20 times higher than that of Co3 Mo3 N.
