Abstract

Alloyed bimetallic Pd-Ru nanocatalysts prepared by in situ reduction of a mixture of a Ru(iii) source and a Pd(ii)@alkyne-PVA aerogel and characterized by TEM and XPS exhibit very highly catalytic activity towards hydrogen release from ammonia borane hydrolysis with a TOF value of 578.2 mol<sub>H2</sub> mol<sub>cat</sub><sup>-1</sup> min<sup>-1</sup>.
