Abstract:
Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) is a crucial strategy for modulating the activity. Finely tailoring the size of the support to the nanoscale still faces significant challenges. Herein, for the first time, C60 carbon cluster is utilized as a nano-support to anchor ultrafine Ru nanoclusters to create a Ru-C60 cluster-cluster co-catalyst. The unique geometric structure of the nano-support C60 enables the construction of a strong cluster-cluster interaction (SCCI), quite different from traditional SMSI. La-modified Ru-C60 presents a surprising discovery that NH3 can even be synthesized at 150 degrees C, and exhibits an unprecedentedly high NH3 synthesis rate at 400 degrees C. C60 not only acts as an electron buffer to balance the charge density of Ru sites, but also stabilizes more metallic Ru active sites with a smaller size due to its spatial and SCCI effect, thereby achieving superior catalytic performance over a wide range of temperatures and pressures.
