Facile one-pot synthesis of multi-yolk–shell Bi@C nanostructures by the nanoscale Kirkendall effect†
Abstract
Multi-yolk–shell Bi@C nanostructures were prepared via a facile one-pot template-free hydrothermal approach. The prepared Bi@C nanostructures can act as a solid catalyst in the thermal decomposition of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) and display excellent catalytic activity, which highlights their application in the field of energetic materials.
