| Research Abstract |
The proponents of this study have discovered a catalytic activity for hydrogen production via methanol decomposition. In this study we examined the effect of alloying elements on the catalytic activity. It was found that Fe enhances the activity and lowers the active temperature. Silicon and titanium were also found to show a similar effect, but have a disadvantage of accelerating carbon deposition. Chromium and vanadium were found to significantly decrease the activity.
