- This work present a metal-organic framework (MOF) templated approach to synthesize highly active metal catalysts for the hydrogen production from ammonia decomposition. The catalysts with a particle size <3 nm present a turnover frequency (TOF) considerably higher than the state-of-the-art Ru/CNTs catalysts, defying the established believe of 3~5 nm as optimum Ru size for this reaction. It also discloses an underestimation of TOF values when using the calcination prepared catalysts where the metal nanoparticles can be possibly blocked access. This work has been presented in 2018 Gordon Research Conference on Green Chemistry.
