Özet
A plasma treatment of Co–W–B catalyst increases the rate of hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of NaBH4. The catalytic properties of Co–W–B prepared in the presence of plasma have been investigated as a function of NaBH4 concentration, NaOH concentration, temperature, plasma applying time, catalyst amount and plasma gases. The Co–W–B catalyst prepared with cold plasma effect hydrolysis in only 12 min, where as the Co–W–B catalyst prepared in known method with no plasma treatment in 23 min. The activation energy for first-order reaction is found to be 29.12 kJ mol-1.
