Super-thermostable platinum nanoparticles on fluorinated clay†
Abstract
Pt/fluorinated clay nanocomposites were prepared by clay-mediated in situ reduction; these nanocomposites demonstrated ultrahigh Pt nanoparticle thermal stability (up to 1000 °C), large BET surface area (379 m2 g−1), uniform dispersion in aqueous media, and intriguing catalytic properties.
