Ultrafine and Ligand‐Free Precious Metal (Ru, Ag, Au, Rh and Pd) Nanoclusters Supported on Phosphorus‐Doped Carbon

Abstract: We report the use of phosphorus-doped carbon (P-C) as support to grow ultrasmall (1-3 nm) and ligand-free precious metal nanocrystals (PMNCs) via chemical reduction. We show that the valence states of surface phosphorus species are critical in tuning the affinity between the carbon support and metal precursors, which rationally controls the loading size and uniformity of resultant PMNCs. Five kinds of PMNCs, including Ru, Ag, Au, Rh, and Pd, were grown in situ to demonstrate the key role of surface phosphorus … Show more

“…Ag + is easier to be reduced into nanocrystals due to the higher reduction potential of Ag + /Ag, compared to Pd 2+ /Pd and Cu 2+ /Cu. 46 , 47 Our experimental observations implied that the quicker nucleation rate kinetically accelerated the growth of Pd-based nanocrystals into HMSs along vesicle and rod “dual”-template micelles simultaneously. By contrast, in the slower nucleation rate, thermodynamically stable rod micelles suppressed the vesicle one and resulted in the formation of solid MSs.…”

“…Owing to larger atom radius and lower electronegativity than N atom, the doping of P into the carbon skeleton was greatly hindered [70] . With unceasing attempts, phosphorus‐doped carbon‐supported metal catalysts have made some progress in catalysis [57,60,61,70–76] . The role of P can be divided into two aspects: forming new active species with metals (such as metal‐P species) [70–72] or playing an auxiliary role to adjust the physical and chemical properties of metals, such as increasing the dispersion and stability of metals, [57,61,72,75] adjusting the electronic state of metals, [71] or improving the acidity of carbon matrix [50] .…”

“…This may lead to the leaching of metal NPs in the catalytic process, resulting in the loss of catalytic performance. According to previous studies, through doping electron-rich heteroatoms like N, 95, 96 P, 97, 98 and S 99 elements into carbon nanomaterials, the electronic characteristics can be altered, thus producing more active sites and unexpected electrical and catalytic properties, such as high stability. 100 Zhang et al .…”
