Abstract:
Hydrazine hydrate is the most promising hydrogen storage material with a hydrogen content of 8.0%. In this paper, after Ti
2O
3 support was prepared by H
2 reduction, NiPt/Ti
2O
3 nanocatalyst was prepared by wet chemistry impregnation reduction method and used to catalyze hydrazine hydrate. The research shows that an alloy is formed between Ni and Pt during the preparation of the catalyst, and the formation of the alloy increases the catalytic activity of the catalyst. The interaction between Ti
2O
3 and NiPt alloy is helpful for the catalytic performance and cyclic stability of the catalyst. The TOF value of the Ni
5Pt
5/Ti
2O
3 catalyst for hydrogen production from hydrazine hydrate is 1076.1 h
−1, which is superior to the reported catalyst performance.
