Processes for making multinary bulk and thin film alloys with nanometer-scale grains are disclosed. An electroless process includes contacting a substrate with a bath within a sealed pressure vessel; and heating the sealed pressure vessel for a time and at a temperature under an autogeneous pressure effective for plating a film of an alloy with nanometer-scale grains onto a contacted portion of the substrate; wherein the bath is formed from one or more salts comprising each constituent element of the alloy, an organic medium, and a reducing agent.

Abstract:
Cryptomelane-type manganese oxide octahedral molecular sieves (OMS-2) supported Fe and Co catalysts are utilized in a method for producing hydrocarbons by a Fischer-Tropsch mechanism. The hydrocarbon producing method includes providing a catalyst of a manganese oxide-based octahedral molecular sieve nanofibers with an active catalyst component of at least one of iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, manganese, vanadium, zinc, and mixtures thereof, and further containing an alkali metal. The formation of iron carbides and cobalt carbides by exposing the catalyst to conditions sufficient to form those carbides is also taught. After the catalyst has been appropriately treated, a carbon source and a hydrogen source are provided and contacted with the catalyst to thereby form a hydrocarbon containing product. The catalyst have high catalytic activity and selectivity (75%) for C2+ hydrocarbons in both CO hydrogenation and C02 hydrogenation. Highly selective syntheses of high value jet fuel, C2-C6 alkenes, C2-C6 carboxylic acids; a-hydroxylic acids and their derivatives have been realized by tuning the oxidation ability of OMS-2 supports and by doping with Cu 2+ ions.
