Sulfur stabilizing metal nanoclusters on carbon at high temperatures

The sulfur is a documented poison reagent for metal catalysts. Here the authors show when doped in a carbon matrix, sulfur can enhance the adhesion strength and eventually suppress the metal sintering, which improve the performance of propane dehydrogenation by strong chemical/electronic interaction...
