A highly porous NiMoS₂/Clay catalyst with large specific surface area was synthesized using non-ionic surfactants for syngas to ethanol synthesis. Samples prepared without surfactant exhibited large agglomerates of NiMoS₂ particles. Introduction of a surfactant into clay structure resulted in well-dispersed NiMoS₂ particles within the exfoliated silicate framework.
