Reactant enrichment of nanoreactors boosts hydrogenation performance
The picture shows mechanism of nanoreactor. The hollow structure of the Pt NPs@MnOx nanoreactor affords a confined space in which reactants enter via directional diffusion driven by the concentration gradient. Then, selective adsorption reduces the internal reactant concentrations, which would promote the in-diffusion of reactants consistently. After the reaction with abundant hydrogen atoms, the weak adsorption of products forces them to leave the nanoreactor in time. Credit: Science China Press
