This paper reports a simple and low cost process for the synthesis of various Cu nanostructures by electroless deposition. Oxidation-stable Cu nanoparticles and nanowires were prepared in aqueous solution in the presence of protective agents. When gelatin is used as protective agent, only spherical Cu nanoparticles with a mean diameter in the range of 37 to 44 nm are formed in the solution. Smaller nanoparticles are prepared at a higher concentration of gelatin. When ethylene diamine is used instead of gelatin, one-dimensional growth of Cu nanowires is favored. Varying the amount of EDA and gelatin provides morphological control over the nanostructures.

The present paper describes a metal-metal bonding technique using Cu nanoparticles containing Ag nanoparticles (Ag/Cu nanoparticles). The Ag/Cu nanoparticles with particle sizes of 30-85 nm and crystal sizes of 9.3 nm for Cu and 8.1 nm for Ag were produced by reducing 5.0x10-3 M Ag+ (AgClO4) and 5.0x10-3 M Cu2+ (Cu(NO3)2) simultaneously with 1.0 M hydrazine in aqueous solution containing 1.0 g/L poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as dispersing agent and 5?10-3 M citric acid as stabilizer at room temperature. Discs of metallic Cu or metallic Ag were successfully bonded under annealing at 400?C and pressurizing at 1.2 MPa for 5 min in H2 gas with help of the Ag/Cu particles. The shear strengths required for separating the bonded discs were as large as 19.7 for the Cu discs and 16.0 MPa for the Ag discs.

AbstractSteam reforming of methanol (CH3OH + H2O -> 3H2 + CO2) has been performed on a number of Al-Cu-based stable quasicrystals and related alloys. Alloys leached in NaOH aqueous solution exhibit the highest activity for steam-reforming of methanol. Among the alloys, AlCuFe quasicrystal, after leaching treatment, reveals excellent activity. The production rate of H2 reaches 235 l/kgmin at 573K for steam reforming of methanol. The activity is due to Cu nanoparticles at the surfaces of quasicrystalline grains which are generated by leaching treatment. The quasicrystals have two advantages: one is their brittle nature, which allows them to be crushed efficiently; the other is the involvement of Fe, which suppresses the sintering of Cu particles.
