Honeycomb-like hierarchical porous carbon was prepared and employed as substrate to support nickel nanparticles via an impregnation-chemical reduction method. The synthesized carbon-supported nickel (denoted as Ni/C) was used as catalysts for hydrogen generation from hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB). Results of XRD, BET, SEM, Raman, and TEM measurements showed that the synthesized carbon possessed high specific surface area of 737 m²·g^-1 and partially graphited structure; the supported amorphous Ni nanoparticles had an average particle size of 10 nm and were uniformly dispersed on the porous carbon substrate. The synthesized Ni/C exhibited high catalytic activity towards the hydrolysis of AB. At hydrolysis temperature of 298 K, Ni/C with 30wt% Ni loading was the most active, resulting in a high hydrogen release rate of 1304.67 mL·min^-1·g^-1 and a low activation energy of 29.1 kJ·mol^-1. In addition, the Ni/C catalyst could be repeatedly utilized with respectable activity reservation for several times. The results indicate that Ni/C is a promising low-cost catalyst for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB.
