摘要：In the study, activated carbon (AC) supported palladium/cobalt (Pd/Co) nanocatalyst was synthesized to achieve hydrogen release from dimethylamine boron (DMAB). Nanocatalyst were produced by the reduction of Pd2 and Co2 cations by the ultrasonic double reduction method. Analytical studies of the synthesized nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), electron energy loss spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy. In this research, nanomaterials exhibited high catalytic activity and reusability, and great performance at low temperatures and concentrations. For the dehydrogenation reaction of dimethylamine borane, TOF and Ea were calculated as 379.5 h−1 and 75.86 kJ mol−1, respectively. The PdCo@AC nanocatalyst can be used as a promising catalyst for the hydrogen production reaction from DMAB.
