Synthesis of Co₂FeGe Heusler alloy nanoparticles and catalysis for selective hydrogenation of propyne.

ABSTRACT: Although intermetallic compounds are attracting attention of catalysis researchers, ternary intermetallic catalysts have scarcely been investigated due the difficulty of synthesizing supported nanoparticles. In this study, we successfully synthesized SiO₂ supported Co₂FeGe Heuslar alloy nanoparticles. This catalyst exhibited high catalytic performance for selective hydrogenation of propyne by nano-sizing.
