Abstract

Ru nanoclusters on Ni/Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles supported on carbon (Ru/Ni/Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub>/C) were successfully prepared and characterized. Ru/Ni/Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub>/C exhibited an unprecedented catalytic activity for naphthalene hydrogenation at room temperature due to synergetic catalysis.
