Platinum group metal (pgm) catalysts for automotive emissions treatment

TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic materials for exhaust gas purifying catalyst composites comprise platinum group metal (PGM)-containing catalysts whose PGM component(s) are provided as nanoparticles and are affixed to a refractory metal oxide, which may be provided as a precursor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Classroom-Scale Demonstrations Using Flash Ignition of Carbon Nanotubes

TL;DR: In this article, flash-initiated combustion of carbon nanotubes can be demonstrated in a large setting using a variety of demonstrations, which can also be used to illustrate the importance of surface area in chemical reactions.

Method of making polymer hollow particles with controllable holes in their surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for making a hollow polymer particle having a single, substantially circular opening in its surface is described, which is similar to the one we use in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Situ Growth of Pt-Co Nanocrystals on Different Types of Carbon Supports and Their Electrochemical Performance toward Oxygen Reduction.

TL;DR: In this article, a colloidal method for the in situ growth of Pt-Co nanocrystals on various commercial carbon supports was proposed, which resulted in not only variations in size and composition for the nanoparticles, but also their catalytic activity and durability.
