Popis: Low-cost single phase NiSb and CoSb nanoparticles were synthesized via rapid polyol and facile solvothermal methods. Both compounds showed better activity for the hydrogenation of p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol compared to the best reported noble metal systems. The improved catalytic activity is explained based on the active site isolation mechanism.
