The cobalt-catalyzed hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH(4)) has become an attractive process in view of the possibilities of using the hydride for hydrogen storage material and also for the production of amorphous and tunable-size magnetic nanoparticles. This process in which the metallic catalyst transforms into a Co- and B-based magnetic by-product when in contact with NaBH(4) has been modified in order to control the mechanism of formation, tune the final size and study the particular magnetic behavior of the Co-B alloy nanoparticles provided.
钴催化硼氢化钠(NaBH(4))的水解已成为一种很有吸引力的过程,因为可以将氢化物用作储氢材料,也可以用于制备非晶态和可调尺寸的磁性纳米颗粒。在这个过程中,当金属催化剂与 NaBH(4)接触时,会转化为含有 Co 和 B 的磁性副产物。为了控制形成机制、调整最终尺寸并研究提供的 Co-B 合金纳米颗粒的特殊磁性行为,对该过程进行了改进。
