Hydrogen generation from methylamine using silicon carbide nanotubes as a dehydrogenation catalyst: A density functional theory study
The adsorption and decomposition of CH3NH2 on the SiCNT is studied. SiCNTs can be used as a metal-free catalyst for CH3NH2 dehydrogenation. For the dehydrogenation of CH3NH2 on the SiCNT surface, the rate-determining step is HCNH?HCN+H.
