ABSTRACT

Size-dependent nanostructural transformations occurring during the H(2)-mediated reduction of hollow and porous NiO nanoparticles were investigated for controlled nanoparticle sizes of ~10 to 100 nm. Transmission electron microscopy reveals that the location and number of reduction sites strongly depend on the nanoparticle size and structure.
