Özet

Here, carbon quantum dot (CQD) supported Ru nanoparticles from the caffeine in methanol or water by the hydrothermal method were synthesized for the first time to produce hydrogen (H-2) by hydrolysis of ammonia borane(NH3BH3) and their catalytic activities were investigated. The chemical compositions and morphology structures of this caffeine carbon dot-supported Ru catalysts were carefully characterized by UV, PL, TEM, FTIR, and ICP/OES analyses. Well-dispersed Ru nanoclusters with similar to 1.81 nm particle size on CQD by the hydrothermal method in methanol medium showed very good catalytic performance. The turnover frequency (TOF) obtained for H-2 production from the catalytic hydrolysis of 5% NH3BH3 with CQD supported Ru catalyst obtained by the hydrothermal method in methanol and water was found to be 361 and 1895 mol H-2 min(-1) mol(-1), respectively. The activation energies (Ea) for NH3BH3 hydrolysis with the same catalysts were measured as 33.32 and 27.80 kJmol(-1), respectively.
