We find that the high activity of nanoparticles of hcp metals (Ru, Os, and Re) for ammonia synthesis is due to the N-induced formation of atomically-rough {134̄2} facets.

<p>Ruthenium is an excellent catalyst for ammonia synthesis and recently shows quite high activity when supported on materials with high electron-donating and hydrogen-absorbing properties. The high activity is generally considered to originate from the two effects: the electron-donating property of the support, which reduces its apparent activation energy (<sup>app</sup>E<sub>a</sub>) to half of pure Ru’s <sup>app</sup>E<sub>a</sub>, and the hydrogen-absorbing property, which increases the active site by suppressing hydrogen poisoning, a drawback of ruthenium catalysts. Here, we investigated the catalytic performance of ruthenium loaded on TiMn<sub>2</sub>, a hydrogen storage material without electron-donating property to ruthenium. Ruthenium on TiMn<sub>2</sub> showed the <sup>app</sup>E<sub>a</sub> reduced by half despite the lack of electron-donating property. It is plausible that the decreased <sup>app</sup>E<sub>a</sub> is due to the elimination of hydrogen over Ru by TiMn<sub>2</sub>. The hydrogen storage capacity is also an essential factor in discussing the <sup>app</sup>E<sub>a</sub>.</p>
