(a) Representative TEM images of the core-shell NPs Ru@SiO₂ with different Ru loadings: (A) 1 wt%, (B) 2 wt%, (C) 6 wt%, and (D) 10 wt%. (b) Hydrogen generation from hydrolysis of NH₃BH₃ (200 mM, 10 mL) by Ru@SiO₂ NPs (Ru loading = 6 wt% and (Ru) = 0.5 mM) at 298 K. The inset shows the reaction time versus the loading of ruthenium.
