Preparation and catalytic properties of single phase Ni–Sn intermetallic compound particles by CVD of Sn(CH3)4 onto Ni/silica

Ayumu Onda and Takayuki Komatsu

Particles of each of the single phase Ni–Sn intermetallic compounds Ni3Sn, Ni3Sn2 and Ni3Sn4 have been formed on silica by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of Sn(CH3)4 onto Ni/SiO2 and used as catalysts for cyclohexane dehydrogenation.
