Abstract

Ultrafine cobalt–nickel bimetallic phosphides were prepared by mild hydrothermal method and characterized by techniques, such as XRD, EDS, and TEM. The results showed that the as-prepared products were well crystallized and particle sizes ranged from 10 to 20 nm. With the increasing amount of Ni2+ in the suspensions, the crystallinity of obtained products was improved gradually and the crystallite sizes increased accordingly.

Highlights

  • Transition metal phosphide compounds have great application prospects in the catalytic agent (Brock and Senevirathne 2008; Rodriguez et al 2003) due to their excellent antisulfurpoisoning property and superior catalytic activity

  • Ultrafine cobalt–nickel bimetallic phosphides were prepared by mild hydrothermal method and characterized by techniques, such as X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), EDS, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM)

  • When the ratio of Ni/Co/P was 1:25:125 (Group 6), the main peaks were hardly observed which should be attributed to small crystallite sizes
