Chemical transformation and morphology change of nickel–silica hybrid nanostructures via nickel phyllosilicates

Ji Chan Park, Hyun Ju Lee, Jung Up Bang, Kang Hyun Park and Hyunjoon Song

Ni@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles were transformed to Ni particles on silica spheres via a branched nickel phyllosilicate phase by hydrothermal and hydrogen reduction reactions; the final morphology was successfully employed as an active nanocatalyst for the hydrogen transfer reaction of acetophenone.
