Abstract
), and high-entropy phase, HMC@NC can function as a promising catalyst for the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. Unexpected activity (EB conv.: 73%) and thermal stability (>100 h on steam) at 450 °C are observed. Such a facile synthetic strategy may inspire the fabrication of other types of HMCs for more specific tasks.
