Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A catalyst composition includes a liquid metal alloy having a melting point from about 20° C. to about 25° C., the liquid metal alloy including a primary metal and a secondary metal, the primary metal being aluminum and the secondary metal is selected from the group consisting of gallium, indium, and bismuth.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A catalyst composition comprising gallium and aluminum at an atomic ratio from about 2:1 to about 5:1 of gallium to aluminum, wherein aluminum includes particles having an average size from about 5 nm to about 30 nm diameter dispersed in gallium. 2. The catalyst composition of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst composition has a melting point from about 20° C. to about 25° C. 3. The catalyst composition of claim 1 , wherein gallium and aluminum are present at an atomic ratio of from about 2.5:1 to about 4:1 of gallium to aluminum. 4. The catalyst composition of claim 3 , wherein gallium and aluminum are present at an atomic ratio of from about 2.5:1 to about 3.5:1 of gallium to aluminum. 5. The catalyst composition of claim 1 provided as a pellet of at least 0.1 g, at least 1 g, at least 10 g, at least 100 g, or at least 1000 g in mass. 6. The catalyst composition of claim 5 where the pellet is stored under an alkane.
