Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Catalysts based on perovskite—fluorite nanocomposites with supported nickel 5%Ni/[Pr0.15Sm0.15Ce0.35Zr0.35O2 + LaMn0.9Ru0.1O3] were synthesized by three different methods. Structural and surface features of as-prepared samples were elucidated by N2 adsorption, XRD, HR TEM with EDX; reducibility and reactivity were estimated by H2-TPR, and catalytic properties were studied in ethanol steam reforming in the 500–700 °C temperature range. The best catalytic activity without coke accumulation was demonstrated for the 5%Ni/[Pr0.15Sm0.15Ce0.35Zr0.35O2+ LaMn0.9Ru0.1O3] catalyst with nanocomposite support obtained by a simple sequential polymeric preparation method. Highly dispersed particles of metallic nickel strongly fixed on the support after the reaction were shown by the HR-TEM and H2 –TPR data. The catalyst provides stable full conversion of ethanol and hydrogen yield above 60% at 600 °C for at least 6 h.
