General description
Ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate exhibits excellent catalytic activity, attributed to the redox properties of ruthenium suitable for fuel cells and other electrochemical devices. It has ability to facilitate charge transfer and exhibit photoactive behavior.
Application
Ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate can be used:
- As a precursor to prepare ultralow Ru loaded graphene aerogel that exhibits electrocatalytic performance in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).
- As a dopant to prepare Ru-doped TiO2 electron transport layer for mesoscopic perovskite solar cell by spin-coating technique. This helps to enhance photoconversion efficiency and air stability.
- To fabricate ultra-uniform Ru nanocluster catalyst via small-molecule self-assembly pyrolysis method. These catalysts exhibit excellent hydrogen evolution activity in Zinc air batteries under all pH conditions.

An efficient oxidant-free oxidation for a wide range of alcohols was achieved by a recyclable ruthenium catalyst. The catalyst was prepared from readily available reagents by a one-pot synthesis through nanoparticle generation and gelation. [structure: see text]
