Palladium nanoparticles supported on carbon black powder (Vulcan XC-72) nanocomposite (Pd/C) are synthesized as the catalyst for the anodic oxidation of glucose for use in a direct glucose alkaline fuel cell (DGAFC). Characterization of the catalyst is carried out using physical and electrochemical methods. It is observed that Palladium nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed onto the carbon blac...

Palladium (Pd)-based catalysts are essential to drive high-performance Suzuki coupling reactions, which powerful tools for the synthesis of functional organic compounds. Herein, we developed a solution-rapid-annealing process stabilize nitrogen-mesoporous carbon supported Pd single-atom/cluster (Pd/NMC) material, provided catalyst with superior performance reactions. In comparison commercial pa...

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...

The oxidation state of palladium in a model Pd/ ACZ three-way catalyst was monitored by synchronous XANES and mass spectrometry during two consecutive heating (to 850 C) and cooling (to 100 C) cycles under stoichiometric conditions simulating exhaust after treatment of a natural gas engine. During heating in the first cycle, PdO reduction occurred around 500 C and the initial fully oxidized sta...

Sustainable methods are needed to recycle precious metals and synthesize catalytic nanoparticles. Palladium nanoparticles can be produced via microbial reduction of soluble Pd(II) to Pd(0), but in previous tests using dissimilatory metal reducing bacteria (DMRB), the nanoparticles were closely associated with the cells, occupying potential reductive sites and eliminating the potential for cell ...

© 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim 1 wileyonlinelibrary.com applications, metal nanoparticles, oxides, polymers, and many other materials were inkjet-printed.[1] However, the inkjet printing of an essential material for electrochemical applications, palladium (Pd), is less commonly reported. Pd is of significant importance for electrochemical applications due to its high electroc...

The present work is focused on the investigation of the performance and long-term stability of two composite palladium membranes under different operating conditions. One membrane (Pd/porous stainless steel (PSS)) is characterized by a ~10 µm-thick palladium layer on a porous stainless steel substrate, which is pretreated by means of surface modification and oxidation; the other membrane (Pd/Al...

Tungsten trioxide has been prepared by using P-PTA as a precursor on alumina substrates by spin coating method. Palladium introduced on WO3 film via electrolysis deposition by using palladium chloride as catalytic precursor. The catalytic precursor was introduced on the series of films with different morphologies. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and XPS were appli...

In developing environmentally benign chemistries, it is most important to use dioxygen directly in lieu of toxic and/or corrosive stoichiometric oxidants. Unfortunately, for many processes such direct oxidations have not yet become practical. To help develop such processes, we elucidate here the mechanism for the reaction of molecular oxygen with toluene-solvated palladium-hydride complex using...
