Spark Ablation: a dry, physical, and continuous method to prepare powdery metal nanoparticle-based catalysts†

Chem. Commun., 2024, Accepted Manuscript DOI: 10.1039/D4CC03469D, Communication Damien P Debecker, Tobias V. Pfeiffer, Bernardus Zijlstra, Yingrui Zhao, Plaifa Hongmanorom, Sandra Casale, Capucine Sassoye We report the first synthesis of a powdery heterogeneous catalyst using spark ablation technology. A TiO2 powder is aerosolized in a vortex and injected close to the electrode of a...
