Continuous Fabrication of Novel Polyimide Nanoparticles Confining Highly Dispersed Gold Nanoparticles by a Multistep Microfluidic Reaction System and Their Catalytic Application

Abstract

Abstract Novel polyimide nanoparticles confining maximum 12.5 wt % of highly dispersed Au nanoparticles (size: 5.6 nm) were continuously fabricated by using a multistep microfluidic reaction system; the particles show good activity for the hydrogenation in scCO2 with excellent yields and selectivity without leaching and agglomeration of Au nanoparticles.
