Synthesis of highly active Pt-CeO2 hybrids with tunable secondary nanostructures for the catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane

We demonstrate a fast and facile ultrasound-assisted method to fabricate Pt-CeO2 hybrids with tunable secondary nanostructures. The influence of hybrid structures towards their catalytic properties has been studied in depth. As a result the Pt-CeO2 nanonecklace shows better catalytic performance than the nanoflower and the nanosatellite.
