When hydrazine borane is added to the solution of nickel(II) chloride and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid), PSSMA, both reduction of nickel(II) ions to nickel(0) nanoparticles and hydrogen release from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane occur concomitantly at room temperature. Using the hydrogen evolution from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane as reporter reaction provides valuable insights to the formation kinetics of nickel(0) nanoparticles. Nickel(0) nanoparticles are in situ formed from the reduction of precursor nickel(II) chloride by hydrazine borane and stabilized by PSSMA present in the solution. The in-situ generated, PSSMA-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles (PSSMA-Ni) with an average particle size of 8.3 +/- 2.3 nm were isolated from reaction medium by centrifugation and characterized by UV-Vis., TEM, EDX, XRD, and XPS techniques. PSSMA-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles were found to be highly active and stable catalyst in hydrogen generation from the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of hydrazine borane releasing 2.6-3.0 mol H-2 per mol of hydrazine borane. They provide 1600 turnovers in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane over 18 h before deactivation with an initial TOF value of 3.05 min (1) at 25 +/- 0.5 degrees C. Carbon disulfide poisoning experiments show that the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of hydrazine borane catalyzed by PSSMA-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles is a heterogeneous catalysis. This report also includes the detailed kinetic study of the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of hydrazine borane catalyzed by PSSMA-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles depending on the catalyst concentration, substrate concentration and temperature. The apparent activation energy of the catalytic reaction was calculated from the evaluation of temperature dependent kinetic data: E-a(app) = 73 +/- 2 kJ/mol.

Ozhava, Derya; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2015-09-07)
Rhodium(0) nanoparticles, supported on nanosized hydroxyapatite (Rh(0)/nanoHAP), were prepared by ion exchange of Rh+3 ions with Ca+2 ions of hydroxyapatite, followed by reduction of the resulting Rh+3/nanoHAP precatalyst during the catalytic methanolysis of ammonia borane (AB) in the presence of tetrabutylammonium dihydrogen phosphate (TBAP) at room temperature. Rh(0)/nanoHAP were characterized by a combination of advance analytical techniques including ICP-OES, XRD, TEM, EDX, XPS, ATR-IR and N-2 adsorptio...

Tonbul, Yalcin; Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2019-05-01)
Rh3+ ions are first impregnated on Group 4 metal oxides (TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2) in aqueous solution and, then reduced with aqueous solution of NaBH4 to form rhodium(0) nanoparticles (NPs) on the oxide surface. The analyses reveal that Rh(0) NPs are highly dispersed on the surface of TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2. Rh-0/MO2 (M: Ti, Zr, Hf) NPs have high activity and reusability in releasing H-2 from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane with an initial turnover frequency of 643, 198, and 188 min(-1), respectively, at 25.0 +/- 0.1 d...

Water-dispersible nickel(0) nanoclusters are prepared from the reduction of nickel(II) acetylacetonate by sodium borchydride in aqueous solution and stabilized by hydrogerphosphate anion. Hydrogenphosphate-stabilized nickel(0) nanoclusters were characterized by using XPS, FT-IR, UV-Vis and NMR spectroscopic methods. As the first example of water-dispersible nickel(0) nanoclusters, they were employed as catalyst in the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride. Hydrogenphosphate-stabilized nickel(0) nanoclusters were...

The first principle calculations are used to investigate hydrogen storage properties of MgTiO3Hx and CaTiO3Hx (x = 0, 3, 6, and 8) perovskite compounds in cubic phase (Pm3 m). In order to examine the stability of these compounds, formation enthalpies are calculated and all compounds (except MgTiO3H6 and MgTiO3H8) are found to be stable. The second order elastic constants and related polycrystalline elastic moduli (e.g., shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, Debye temperature, sound velocities) ar...
