Fund Project: This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant No. 29773037 and the opening project grant from the State Key Lab of Physical Chemistry on Solid Surfaces.

A novel ammonia-synthesis catalyst, potassium-promoted ruthenium supported on fullerene (K-Ru/C_60/70), was prepared and evaluated. It was found that K-Ru/C_60/70 was the most active catalyst for ammonia synthesis at atmospheric pressure and 623 K compared with other support materials such as silica, activated carbon, zeolite, γ-Al₂O3 and rare earth metal oxide.
