The resulting Ru(0)/TiO2 catalyze hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane with an initial turnover frequency value of 200 min−1 at 25 ± 0.1°C.

The influence of TiO2 nanoparticles in the polymer thermal degradation was determined by the Broido method and calculating the activation energy. The activation energy is higher for all nanocomposite compare with PC and it means higher thermal stability of nanocomposite.

The results show that the particle size of antimony nanoparticle has significant effect on its dispersibility in lubricating oil. When the mass fraction of antimony nanoparticles in lubricating oil is 0.5%, the steric hindrance effect of surface adsorption layer coating on particles surface increases with decreasing of particle size. Meanwhile, the aggregating probability decreases among nanoparticles under the action of the collision generated by Brownian motion. As a result, the sedimentation velocity of nanoparticles in lubricating oil becomes slower and the dispersion stability of antimony nanoparticles in lubricating oil becomes better.","PeriodicalId":22118,"journal":{"name":"Synthesis and Reactivity in Inorganic, Metal-Organic, and Nano-Metal Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80801444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
