Characterization of palladium nanoparticles protected with polymer as hydrogenation catalyst

Effect of size and oxidation state of size-controlled rhodium nanoparticles on the aqueous-phase hydrodechlorination of 4-chlorophenol

“…No reaction was detected in any of the control runs and thus synergistic or inhibitory effects of PVP can be discarded. This fact is in good agreement with previous works in the literature where it has been reported that the presence of PVP in the reaction medium does not affect significantly to the catalytic activity of Pd nanoparticles [13,33]. On the other hand, different concentrations of catalyst and stirring rates were checked in the experiments of 4-CP HDC in order to address that the process takes place under chemical control.…”

Investigation of transmittance property of Palladium thin films fabricated by pulsed laser deposition with polarization using single layer model

“…Palladium (Pd) in thin film form has drawn renewed interest in recent years because of its potential applications in the area of hydrogen sensors, and additionally pure palladium is often used as a catalytic coating [9][10][11] in thin film systems. The effect of transmittance and the reflectance of a light beam through a thin palladium film can be exploited in a sensor application [12].…”

Synthesis and self-organization of soluble monodisperse palladium nanoclusters

“…Due to their catalytic properties [9][10][11], palladium nanoclusters soluble in organic solvents have also attracted much attention. These nanoparticles have been synthesized in a nonionic inverse micelle [6], a biphasic system [12], and a single-organic-phase system [13,14].…”
