Selective Hydrogen Production from Formate Using Nanoparticle with Homogeneously Polymer-dispersed Platinum Clusters
Selective hydrogen production from formic acid with platinum nano-cluster dispersed by various protective polymer based agents polyvinylpyrrolidone (Pt-PVP) or polyacrylic acid (Pt-PAA) is attempted. The ratio of hydrogen to CO2 was estimated to be c.a. 1.0 (stoichiometric ratio) under the argon-saturated buffer solution containing formic acid with Pt-PVP.
