Preparation and characterization of planetary ball milled Si-based clathrates and their spark plasma sintered materials

Nitrate and nitroarene hydrogenations catalyzed by alkaline-earth nickel phosphide clathrates

“…32 In fact, nanocrystalline clathrates were recently prepared by ball milling or through ionic liquid-assisted approaches. 33,34 Therefore, we decided to explore whether a similar, top-down approach based on hand-grinding or ball-milling could be used to increase the surface area and, with it, enhance the catalytic activity of AeNi 2 P 4 clathrates (Fig. 3).…”
