Intensive efforts have been devoted to the development of new materials for safe and efficient hydrogen storage. Among them, ammonia-borane appears to be a promising candidate due to its high gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity. Ammonia-borane can release hydrogen on hydrolysis in aqueous solution under mild conditions in the presence of a suitable catalyst. Herein, we report the synthesis of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles stabilized by dihydrogenphosphate anions with an average particle size of 2.9 +/- 0.9 nm acting as a water-dispersible nanocatalyst in the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane. They provide an initial turnover frequency (TOF) value of 80 min(-1) in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane at room temperature. Moreover, the high stability of these ruthenium(0) nanoparticles makes them long-lived and reusable nanocatalysts for the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane. They provide 56,800 total turnovers and retain similar to 80% of their initial activity even at the fifth catalytic run in the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane at room temperature.

Catalytic methanolysis of hydrazine borane: a new and efficient hydrogen generation system under mild conditions Karahan, Senem; Zahmakıran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim (2012-01-01) Safe and efficient hydrogen storage is a major obstacle for using hydrogen as an energy carrier. Therefore, intensive efforts have been focused on the development of new materials for chemical hydrogen storage. Of particular importance, hydrazine borane (N2H4BH3) is emerging as one of the most promising solid hydrogen carriers due to its high gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity (15.4 wt%) and low molecular weight. Herein, we report metal catalyzed methanolysis of hydrazine borane (N2H4BH3, HB) as a fast h...
Catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane for chemical hydrogen storage: Highly efficient and fast hydrogen generation system at room temperature Karahan, Senem; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim (2011-04-01) There has been rapidly growing interest for materials suitable to store hydrogen in solid state for transportation of hydrogen that requires materials with high volumetric and gravimetric storage capacity. B-N compounds such as ammonia-triborane, ammonia-borane and amine-borane adducts are well suited for this purpose due to their light weight, high gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity and inclination for bearing protic (N-H) and hydridic (B-H) hydrogens. In addition to them, more recent study [261 has sho...
Zeolite confined copper(0) nanoclusters as cost-effective and reusable catalyst in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Durap, Feyyaz; Özkar, Saim (2010-01-01) Herein we report the development of a cost-effective nanocluster catalyst for the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane which is considered to be one among the new hydrogen storage materials. Zeolite confined copper(0) nanoclusters were prepared by the ion-exchange of Cu2+ ions with the extra framework Na+ ions in zeolite-Y followed by reduction of the Cu2+ ions within the cavities of zeolite with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution and characterized by HR-TEM, XRD, XPS, SEM, EDX, ICP-OES, Raman s...
Water soluble laurate-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoclusters catalyst for hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane: High activity and long lifetime DURAP, FEYYAZ; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim (2009-09-01) The simplest amine-borane, considered as solid hydrogen storage material, ammonia-borane (H(3)NBH(3)) can release hydrogen gas upon catalytic hydrolysis under mild conditions. Herein, we report the preparation of a novel catalyst, water dispersible laurate-stabilized ruthenium(0) nanoclusters from the dimethylamine-borane reduction of ruthenium(III) chloride in sodium laurate solution at room temperature. The ruthenium nanoclusters in average size of 2.6 +/- 1.2 nm were isolated from the solution and well c...
Rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on nano oxide crystalline materials: preparation, characterization and catalytic use in hydrogen generation from the methanolysis of ammonia borane / Özhava, Derya; Özkar, Saim; Department of Chemistry (2018) Ammonia borane (AB) has been considered as a chemical hydrogen storage materials, because of its high hydrogen storage capacity (19.6 wt%), nontoxicity, and stability under ordinary conditions. Hydrogen stored in AB can be liberated by thermolysis or solvolysis. Hydrolysis and methanolysis are the two solvolysis reactions producing hydrogen gas from AB. Although the hydrolysis of AB has been investigated for years extensively, the methanolysis of AB has been considered as an alternative way of releasing hyd...
