Hydrogen in metals has possible applications in various energy storage devices. For the palladium-deuterium system, excess power production and other anomalous effects have been reported. This study focused on hydrogen and deuterium insertion into palladium and deuterium insertion into various palladium-boron alloys. The condition of the metal surface is a major factor in the insertion of hydro...

Carbon-supported gold nanoparticles (Au/C) are successfully decorated with monoor sub-monolayer palladium atoms with different Pd/Au atomic ratios by a chemically epitaxial seeded growth method. TEM, UV–vis spectrometry and XRD techniques are used to characterize the particle size, dispersion, palladium coverage on gold seeds and crystal structures of the prepared catalysts. Cyclic voltammetric...

Evidence for the emission of low intensity X-rays during cathodic polarization of the Pd/D system(s) is presented. The Pd/D system was prepared by charging with electrochemically generated deuterium either palladium foil or palladium electrodeposited from D2 0 electrolytes. Experimental and analytical procedures are described in detail.

an efficient synthetic method for successful synthesis of amine denderon on sba-15 and related pd (ii) complex has been developed. this modified mesoporous material was characterized by various techniques such as tem, xrd, atomic absorption spectroscopy, n2 adsorption-desorption, and ft-ir. the catalytic activities of the prepared catalysts were investigated by employing aerobic oxidation of al...

We report the application of palladium nanoparticles and thin films for hydrogen sensor. Electrochemically grown palladium particles with spherical shapes deposited on Si substrate and sputter deposited Pd thin films were used to detect hydrogen at room temperature. Grain size dependence of H(2) sensing behavior has been discussed for both types of Pd films. The electrochemically grown Pd nanop...

  In this work,copper/palladium (Cu/Pd) multilayer nanowires were successfully prepared by electrodeposition method using polycarbonate template. The fabrication of Pd/Cu multilayer nanowires was controlled by analyzing the current–time transient during electrodeposition using potentiostat. The morphological properties of the nanowires were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and resu...

Dihydroanthracene derivatives (1-6) containing imide (1-3) and amine (4-6) functions have been used for the stabilization of palladium nanoparticles, starting from Pd(0) and Pd(ii) organometallic precursors. Well-dispersed nanoparticles of mean size in the range ca. 1.9 to 3.6 nm could be obtained using Pd(0) precursors (PdLc and PdLd, where L = 1-6 and c and d mean the organometallic precursor...

an efficient separation-preconcentration procedure namely hollow fiber solid/liquid phase microextraction (hf-slpme) was developed for determination of trace amounts of palladium in water samples by differential pulse voltammetry. in this method, a hybrid sorbent utilizing functionalized nanoparticles incorporated in an organic solvent was used as the extractor phase. the nanoparticle dis­perse...

Formation of green coloured ternary complexes between palladium, chromeazurol S and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide or cetylpyridinium bromide is described over the pH range 4.6 to 5.6. The compositions, Pd(CAS)CTA2 and Pd(CAS)CP2 for the ternary complexes have been established by Job's method of continuous variations and by the mole ratio method using absorbance data. Strict control of experime...

Palladium containing EMT zeolite catalyst (Pd/EMT) was prepared and used for the indirect oxidative carbonylation of methanol to dimethyl carbonate (DMC). The employed as a new support compared with conventional Pd FAU (Pd/FAU). Pd/EMT in contrast Pd/FAU exhibited high intrinsic activity turnover frequency 0.25 s−1 vs. 0.11 s−1. showed CO conversion 82% DMC selectivity 79%, that maintained at l...
