Abstract

Abstract : A ball milling strategy was developed to prepare a 28.3 wt% ultrahigh-loading single-site Zn catalyst with outstanding catalytic activity for the production of hydrogen from silanes. Abstract : A nitrogen-doped carbon-supported ultrahigh-loading single-site Zn catalyst (Zn1 –N–C, 28.3 wt%) was facilely constructed by using a ball milling strategy. With atomically dispersed ZnN3 O sites, the catalyst showed superior catalytic properties for the generation of H2 from silane/alcohol pairs, and scale-up and recycling tests demonstrated its great potential in practical applications.
