Synthesis of nanostructured composite particles using a polyol process

摘要: The present invention is a polyol method for making composite particles of two or more immiscible transition metals, where these are nanoscale dimensions, and the constituent metals essentially nanocrystalline morphology. has steps (1) dissolving suspending precursor metal compounds in an alcohol (diol, triol, etc.) solution, (2) taking solution suspension to temperature compound reduces, causing first second form composites. term “polyol solution” will be used herein describe solutions that contain either polyol.
