Abstract:Cobalt‐based catalysts are well‐known to convert syngas into a variety of Fischer‐Tropsch (FTS) products depending on the various reaction parameters, in particular particle size. In contrast, the reactivity of these particles has been much less investigated in the context of CO2 hydrogenation. In that context, Surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC) was employed to synthesize highly dispersed cobalt nanoparticles (Co‐NPs) with particle sizes ranging from 1.6 to 3.0 nm. These SOMC‐derived Co‐NPs display signif… Show more
