The catalytic activity of alumina supported Ru nanoparticles for NO/CH4 reaction

Chem Commun (Camb). 2002 Mar 21:(6):630-1. doi: 10.1039/b110602n.

Abstract

Alumina supported colloidal Ru nanoparticles, with an initial average size of 4.8 nm, show high activity for NO conversion for T > or = 450 degrees C and remarkably high selectivity (approximately 80%) to syngas at 600 degrees C.
