PVA-co-PE nanofibrous membrane supported noncrystalline Ni-P was prepared.
Rate constant of Ni-P0.25/NFM4.55 is 26.84 × 10−3 s−1 at 20 °C for hydrogenation of PNP.
Ni-Px/NFM4.55 (x = 0.25, 0.50) present cyclic PNP conversion over 98% after 6 times.
3D nanofibrous membrane is confirmed to influence greatly the catalytic reaction.
This catalysis is determined by the synergistic effect of Ni-P and NFM structures.
