Unique reactivity in Pt/CNT catalyzed hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane

We demonstrate an unprecedented H-2 generation activity in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane over acid oxidation- and subsequent high temperature-treated CNT immobilized Pt nanocatalysts to combine the merits of defect-rich and oxygen group-deficient surfaces and unique textural properties of supports as well as optimum particle size of Pt.
