PdO nanoparticles decorated TiO2 film with enhanced photocatalytic and self-cleaning properties

TiO2/Cu2O/CuO Multi-Nanolayers as Sensors for H2 and Volatile Organic Compounds: An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation

“…These results provide evidence that the deposited thin TiO2 film protects the sensor, increasing its lifespan. Thus, the titania (TiO2) ultra-thin layers deposited on top of Cu2O/CuO using spray pyrolysis method can be used for long-term stabilization of functionalities of sensors to provide protection against corrosion at high temperatures [27][28][29][30]55,56 Cite this paper as : O.

Synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic efficiency of a new smart PdO oxide nanomaterials for using in the recycling and sustainable wastewater treatment

“…Recently, palladium metal (Pd) and its oxide (PdO) have received special attention and extensive investigation due to their unique properties as catalysts because they possess high catalytic potency at low temperatures and low volatility at high temperatures. They have wide applications [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] in methane combustion [25][26][27][28], carbon monoxide oxidation [29][30][31][32], catalyzing several organic conversions and reactions, like reduction reactions, hydrogenations of unsaturated olefins, and carbon-carbon cross-coupling formation [33][34][35], ethanol oxidation; it decomposes ethanol through decarbonylation and dehydrogenation, releasing CO and H species and environmental redemption applications when incorporating Pd or PdO with TiO 2 . This incorporation reduced the band gap of TiO 2 .…”

Enhancing composition control of alloy nanoparticles from gas aggregation source by in operando optical emission spectroscopy

“…To accommodate any potential effect of pressure, the fitting parameter c rel can be written in a linear approximation (Equation 3), which is used in the following evaluation. Inserting Equation (3) into Equation (2), the empirical fit model is obtained, as shown in Equation (4).…”

“…Over the last few decades, metal nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted huge attention due to their unique properties resulting from the high surface‐to‐volume ratio. Their properties can be tuned by size distribution, filling factors, and surrounding media (e.g., in the case of nanocomposites), which makes them applicable in many fields like catalysis, [ 1 ] photocatalysis, [ 2–6 ] optics, [ 7 ] resistive switching, [ 8–15 ] and sensors. [ 16–20 ] In particular, noble metal alloy NPs with the composition as an additional tunable parameter are nowadays in the focus of researchers in a broad variety of application scenarios.…”
