A device for synthesising core-shell nanoparticles by laser pyrolysis is provided. The device includes a reactor having a first chamber for synthesising the core, which is provided with an inlet for a core precursor; a second chamber for synthesising the shell, which is provided with an inlet for a shell precursor; and at least one communication channel between the two chambers for transmitting the core of the nanoparticles to be formed in the first chamber towards the second chamber. The device also includes an optical device for illuminating each of the two chambers, and at least one laser capable of emitting a laser beam intended to interact with the precursors in order to form the core and the shell.

Device for synthesising core-shell nanoparticles by laser pyrolysis and associated method

A process for producing an unsupported molybdenum sulfide nanocatalyst comprising atomizing a molybdenum oxide solution to form a molybdenum oxide aerosol, pyrolyzing the molybdenum oxide aerosol with a laser beam to form the unsupported molybdenum-based nanocatalyst, and pre-sulfiding at least a portion of the unsupported molybdenum-based nanocatalyst to form an unsupported molybdenum sulfide nanocatalyst, wherein the unsupported molybdenum-based nanocatalyst, the unsupported molybdenum sulfide catalyst or both are in the form of nanoparticles with a diameter of 1-10 nm and in a distorted rutile crystalline structure. A method of selective deep hydrodesulfurization whereby a hydrocarbon feedstock having at least one sulfur-containing component and at least one hydrocarbon is contacted with the unsupported molybdenum sulfide nanocatalyst.

A method for producing an electrode comprising a core-shell nanocomposite material of which the core is made from silicon and the shell from carbon is provided. The method includes A) synthesising the nanocomposite material by pyrolysing a silicon core to form a core and then pyrolysing a a carbon shell precursor to form a carbon shell around the core, wherein the quantities of silicon and carbon precursor are injected in a proportion such that the mass percentage of carbon in the nanocomposite material is greater than or equal to 45%; B) dispersing the nanocomposite material synthesised in step A) in a solvent to form an ink; C) applying this ink to a support intended to form an electricity collector; D) eliminating the solvent from the ink applied to the support in step C) to obtain the electrode; E) pressing or calendaring the electrode.
