Abstract

This invention provides a fine particle composite comprising fine powder of a sulfide or sulfide complex comprising a given element. The fine particle composite is obtained by a method for producing a fine particle composite comprising fine powder of a sulfide or sulfide complex comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of molybdenum (Mo), rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), and rhenium (Re). Such method comprises steps of: preparing a solvent mixture from at least one compound containing an element selected from among molybdenum (Mo), rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), rhenium (Re), and sulfur (S); and subjecting the solvent mixture to a hydrothermal or solvothermal reaction. The resulting fine particle composite comprises fine particles of a sulfide or sulfide complex comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of molybdenum (Mo), rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), and rhenium (Re).
