COMPOSITION FOR SYNTHESISING BIMETALLIC NANOPARTICLES IN AN IONIC LIQUID AND ASSOCIATED METHOD

摘要

Composition comprises a first organometallic precursor and a second organometallic precursor and a solution of the ionic liquid containing the first and second precursor, where the first and the second organometallic precursors are selected so as to have different decomposition rates. Independent claims are included for: (1) synthesizing bimetallic nanoparticles, comprising transforming a composition for the synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles, where the first and second organometallic precursors are selected so as to have different decay rates, at a temperature of 0-150[deg] C and under hydrogen pressure of 0.1-10 MPa for a time of 0.5-72 hours to give a suspension of bimetallic nanoparticles; and (2) a bimetallic nanoparticle suspension obtained by the above process, where the nanoparticles are synthesized as bimetallic ruthenium-tantalum or copper or ruthenium-platinum-ruthenium or nickel-copper or manganese-copper.
