Influence of synthesis conditions on the structure of nickel nanoparticles and their reactivity in selective asymmetric hydrogenation (2019)
Journal Article
Arrigo, R., Gallarati, S., Schuster, M., Seymour, J., Gianolio, D., da Silva, I., …Held, G. (2020). Influence of synthesis conditions on the structure of nickel nanoparticles and their reactivity in selective asymmetric hydrogenation. ChemCatChem, 12(5), 1491-1503. https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201901955

Unsupported and SiO2-supported Ni nanoparticles (NPs), were synthesised via hot-injection colloidal route using oleylamine (OAm) and trioctylphosphine (TOP) as reducing and protective agents, respectively. By adopting a multi-length scale structural... Read More about Influence of synthesis conditions on the structure of nickel nanoparticles and their reactivity in selective asymmetric hydrogenation.

On the high structural heterogeneity of Fe impregnated graphite-carbon catalysts from Fe nitrate precursor (2019)
Journal Article
Arrigo, R., & Schuster, M. (2019). On the high structural heterogeneity of Fe impregnated graphite-carbon catalysts from Fe nitrate precursor. Catalysts, 9(4), 303. https://doi.org/10.3390/catal9040303

Wet impregnation is broadly applied for the synthesis of carbon supported metal/metal oxide nanostructures because of its high flexibility, simplicity and low cost. By contrast, impregnated catalysts are typified by a usually undesired nanostructural...
