“…Some organic molecules, including N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), n-butylamine, formaldehyde or acetaldehyde, can be catalyzed by Pd materials to produce H 2 , which is then dissociated on the Pd surface to generate H adatoms that can permeate into the Pd lattice and finally occupy the interstitial sites to form PdH x . 21,34,[52][53][54] Based on this, PdH x nanomaterials can be obtained by heating Pd nanomaterials or Pd(II) in the above organic solvent, which acts as both a H source and a solvent. Importantly, the formation of trace oxide during this process can passivate the original PdH x surface, thus endowing PdH x with excellent stability.…”
