Encapsulation of supported metal nanoparticles with an ultra-thin porous shell for size-selective reactions

A novel nanostructured catalyst with an ultra-thin porous shell obtained from the thermal decomposition of an aluminium alkoxide film deposited by molecular layer deposition for size-selective reactions was developed. The molecular sieving capability of the porous metal oxide films was verified by e...

Summary:A novel nanostructured catalyst with an ultra-thin porous shell obtained from the thermal decomposition of an aluminium alkoxide film deposited by molecular layer deposition for size-selective reactions was developed. The molecular sieving capability of the porous metal oxide films was verified by examining the liquid-phase hydrogenation of n -hexene versus cis -cyclooctene. A novel nanostructured catalyst with an ultra-thin porous shell deposited by molecular layer deposition for size-selective reactions is described.
