AI Article Synopsis

  • * Advanced analytical techniques, including transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, were used to investigate the properties of these new nanoparticles.
  • * The engineered nanoparticles exhibit significant heating capabilities when exposed to an alternating magnetic field, enabling a novel method for conducting Fischer-Tropsch syntheses through magnetic heating.

Article Abstract

Addition of Co2(Co)9 and Ru3(CO)12 on preformed monodisperse iron(0) nanoparticles (Fe(0) NPs) at 150 °C under H2 leads to monodisperse core-shell Fe@FeCo NPs and to a thin discontinuous Ru(0) layer supported on the initial Fe(0) NPs. The new complex NPs were studied by state-of-the-art transmission electron microscopy techniques as well as X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements. These particles display large heating powers (SAR) when placed in an alternating magnetic field. The combination of magnetic and surface catalytic properties of these novel objects were used to demonstrate a new concept: the possibility of performing Fischer-Tropsch syntheses by heating the catalytic nanoparticles with an external alternating magnetic field.
