Bimetallic nickel-iridium nanocatalysts for hydrogen generation by decomposition of hydrous hydrazine.
Alloying Ni with Ir leads to the formation of highly active catalysts for complete decomposition of hydrous hydrazine with 100% H(2) selectivity at room temperature. Use of surfactants enhances the activity by suppressing the agglomeration of nanoparticles, but does not affect the bimetallic compositions of the nanoparticles.
