Formaldehyde-assisted synthesis of ultrathin Rh nanosheets for applications in CO oxidation

Abstract

Ultrathin Rh nanosheets with a thickness of approximately 1 nm were synthesized via a simple surfactant-free hydrothermal route, using Rh(II) acetylacetonate as the precursor and formaldehyde as the shape controller. CO and H2 originating from the formaldehyde decomposition played key roles in the formation of ultrathin Rh nanosheets.
