Outline of Final Research Achievements

We studied that metal nanoparticles(NPs) were immobilized in the metal organic framework(MOF), and those samples catalytic activity were evaluated. This work presents surfactant free monometallic and bimetallic polyhedral metal nanocrystals immobilized to a metal organic framework (MIL-101) by CO directed reduction of metal precursors at the solid gas interface. These MOF supported metal nanocrystals exhibited high catalytic activities for CO oxidation.
Highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles deposited on nanoporous carbon MSC-30 have been successfully prepared with a sodium hydroxide assisted reduction approach. We have developed a non-noble metal sacrificial approach(NNMSA) for the first time to successfully immobilize highly dispersed AgPd nanoparticles on reduced graphene oxide.　Those catalysts are able to produce hydrogen from formic acid high selectively.
