Owing to their highly open structure and a large number of low-coordination sites on the surface, noble-metal nanoframes are intriguing for catalytic applications. Here, we demonstrate the rational synthesis of Ru cuboctahedral nanoframes with enhanced catalytic performance toward hydrazine decomposition.
