Amorphous-Carbon-Supported Ultrasmall TiB2 Nanoparticles With High Catalytic Activity for Reversible Hydrogen Storage in NaAlH4

Amorphous-Carbon-Supported Ultrasmall TiB2 Nanoparticles With High Catalytic Activity for Reversible Hydrogen Storage in NaAlH4

In this paper, we report amorphous-carbon-supported TiB2 nanoparticles having sizes of 2–4 nm (nano-TiB2@C) as highly active catalysts for hydrogen storage in NaAlH4. Nano-TiB2@C was synthesized by a simple calcination at 550°C with Cp2TiCl2 and MgB2 (molar ratio of 1:1) as precursors. The addition...
