Abstract:High concentrations of Ni in bimetallic sulfide catalysts lead to the formation of segregated Ni sulfides (NiS x ), which are rather inactive alone as large crystallites and even impede the accessibility of active sites at the sulfide slab edges that catalyze a multitude of hydrogenation reactions and H 2 and CO 2 activation processes. Treatment of Ni-WS 2 /γ-Al 2 O 3 catalysts in aqueous acids, particularly concentrated HCl, results in a significant reduction of NiS x and ≤5-fold enhancement of the phenanthre… Show more
“…Quite interestingly, the hydrogenation of aliphatic and aromatic systems could be achieved with these materials as well. For instance, cyclohexene could be hydrogenated with MoS 2 nanoflowers 61 while phenanthrene required a Ni-WS 2 /γ-Al 2 O 3 composite 62 for the same.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
