Over the 4% Ru /CNTs catalys,t 100% o fNH3 - decomposition w as a ttained at 870 K; w hile over 5% Ru /CNTs prepared by conventional incipient wetness method, the reaction temperature as high as 900 K w as requ ired for the same (100%) conversion. At 870 K, the observed NH3 - decomposit ion conversion w as only 81. 7% over the 5. 7% Ru /γ-Al2O3 catalys.t It was experimentally also found that using the CNTs in place of γ-Al2O3 as support of them etalRu- catalyst did not cause amarked change in the apparent activation energy (Ea) for the reaction of NH3- decomposition to yieldH2.国家重点基础研究发展规划“973”项目(2005CB221400); 国家自然科学基金项目(20473063和20590364
