Research Abstract |
We developed a new one-pot method for producing bimetallic nanoparticles containing Pt and M (Ru, Cu, Co, Ni, Sn etc.) of a few nm supported on ceramics or carbon particles. Aqueous solution containing ions of two metals and support particles was irradiated with an accelerated electron beam. Radicals generated from the water radiolysis reduce these ions to form metallic nanoparticles stabilized on the support. Since the reduction proceeds quickly, alloy nanoparticles may be produced overcoming the redox potential gap between the two elements. The bimetallic structure varied from core-shell to alloy. Base metal precipitates as oxide, but less base metal formed both of alloy and oxide, giving more complex structures. We examined structures and evaluated catalytic activities of the samples to demonstrate their advantages as the catalysis.
