摘要
Developing high-activity catalysts for the hydrolysis of ammonia borane (NH3BH3; AB) is a crucial and urgent task, which is presently considered an effective strategy for hydrogen generation in the applications of portable proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were modified by self-growth of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on their surfaces. As self-sacrificial templates, the carbonization of cobalt and nitrogen containing MOFs led to the modification of CNT. Subsequently, cobalt was transformed into cobalt phosphide (Co2P) via phosphatization to form Co2P/N co-decorated CNTs (NCP-CNTs). Ru/NCP-CNT catalysts were obtained by loading ruthenium nanoparticles (NPs) using a chemical reduction method and their catalytic performance for H2 production via the hydrolysis of AB was systematically investigated. Ru/NCP-CNTs exhibited excellent catalytic activity, with an initial high turnover frequency (TOF) of 193.9 molH2·molRu-1·min-1 and a low activation energy of 32.4 kJ·mol-1. The incorporation of Ru NPs and their excellent synergistic effect with the NCP-CNT supports can explain the improved performance. This work provides an updated approach for fabricating low-cost and high-efficiency catalysts for the hydrolysis of AB.
