Deep debromination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) by visible light photocatalysis is still a challenge in the field of halogenated pollutants control. Here, an efficient photocatalyst (Pd/g-C 3 N 4 ) was prepared by a simple impregnation-chemical reduction method with bulk g-C 3 N 4 and PdCl 2 as precursors. Under preferred reaction conditions (visible light irradiation for 120 min), the use of the 0.5% Pd/g-C 3 N 4 composites (0.4 g L −1 ) yielded an almost complete debromination of BDE47 (10 μmol L −1 ) in methanol-water mixture, while the debromination of BDE47 did not occur on pure g-C 3 N 4 . A “Pd-promoted active H atom species attack and C-Br bond cleavage” route was proposed according to the identified degradation intermediates. A catalytic mechanism was further clarified: Pd nanoparticles exerted affinity interaction with bromine atoms, and the storing of electrons on Pd would increase the binding interaction. In the debromination process, methanol acts as both a hole scavenger and a hydrogen donor to provide active H atom species through the reaction of H + and photogenerated electrons on Pd nanoparticles. The initiation of BDE47 debromination on Pd nanoparticles required an induction period to enrich a critical amount of electrons for stretching the C-Br bond and its subsequent being attacked by active H atoms. The generated 2,2′-dibromodiphenyl ether (BDE4) would be further reduced to bromine-free products by hydro-debromination process or coupling reaction.

Rational design supporting material for palladium (Pd)-based catalyst can maximize its electrocatalytic performance for ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) catalyst in alkaline condition. Utilizing the unique two-dimensional structures and outstanding physicochemical property of graphene and black phosphorus (BP), herein, we proposed and designed a black phosphorus–graphene heterostructure for supporting Pd nanoparticles. Through merely ball-milling of activated graphene (AG) and black phosphorus (BP), the AG–BP hybrid with a linkage of P–C bonding is used as supports of Pd. The obtained Pd/AG–BP hybrid exhibits ultrahigh electrochemical activity toward EOR. Remarkably, it can achieve a high mass peak current density of ∼6004.53 and ∼712.03 mA mgPd–1 before and after the durability tests of 20 000s on EOR, which are ∼7.19 and 80 times higher than those of commercial Pd/C. The experimental analysis and density-functional-theory calculation show that Pd becomes more positive with electrons transfer from Pd to AG–BP supports and is liable to absorb the OH radicals for removing COads intermediate to release active sites on EOR, together with the excellent ability to generate additional OH militants after combining with the AG–BP heterostructure.

In this paper, a simple route for palladium (Pd) nanoparticles attached to the surface of hollow magnetic Fe 3 O 4 /P (GMA-DVB)-polyethyleneimine (PEI) microspheres was established. Due to the large amount of imidogen groups and tertiary amine groups presenting in the PEI, Pd 2+ ions could be anchored to the support by complexation with a polyfunctional organic ligand. Thereafter, a magnetic Pd catalyst having a high loading amount and good dispersibility was obtained by reducing Pd 2+ ions. Afterwards, the prepared catalyst was characterized by TEM, SEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA, VSM, and UV–vis in detail. Ultimately, their catalytic activity was evaluated using the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). Research showed that the Fe 3 O 4 /P (GMA-DVB)-PEI/Pd catalyst possessed high catalytic performances for the reduction of 4-NP with a conversion rate of 98.43% within 540 s. Furthermore, the catalyst could be easily recovered and reused at least for nine successive cycles.

One-pot synthesis Pt–Pd bimetallic nanostructure has become a promising way to get superior oxygen reduction reaction performance and cost-effective electrocatalyst for proton exchange membrane fuel cells. In this work, we report a facile one-pot method by tuning the feed ratio of Pt and Pd (Pt3Pd1, Pt2Pd1, and Pt1Pd1) in ethylene glycol solution at the effect of iodide ions and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) to synthesize three different Pt–Pd bimetallic nanodendrites structure. Transmission electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that the nanodendrites have a Pt-rich surface structure and numerous high-index facets at the branch’s surface, thus providing a great deal of catalytic sites. Carbon-supported Pt–Pd nanodendrite catalysts were investigated for oxygen reduction reaction performance and accelerated durability test. The Pt1Pd1/C catalyst shows the best activity and durability and with a mass activity of 1.164 A mgPt–1 and a specific activity of 1.33 mA cm–2, greatly enhanced compared with commercial TKK-Pt/C catalysts (0.15 A mgPt–1 for mass activity, and 0.25 mA cm–2 for a specific activity). The Pt1Pd1/C catalyst also exhibits remarkable durability with almost negligible decay in performance after 10 000 cycles. These results provide us an attractive strategy for designing catalysts with a simple route, lower cost, and remarkable catalytic activity and durability.

Carbon dioxide methanation is of great importance for both environment and energy because of the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and the utilization of carbon source. In this work, UiO-66 was employed as the support for palladium nanoparticles via a sol-gel method to enhance the activity of CO 2 methanation. The physical-chemical properties of as-prepared catalysts were characterized using N 2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It was found that there was a synergistic effect between UiO-66 and supported Pd. CO 2 could be activated in UiO-66 via its Zr 6 O 4 (OH) 4 nods, while H 2 molecules were dissociated at Pd for further hydrogenation of activated CO 2 . As a result, the catalyst with a Pd loading of 6 wt.% exhibited a high activity with 56.0% of CO 2 conversion and 97.3% of CH 4 selectivity, corresponding to a STY of 856 g·h −1 ·kg cat −1 at 4 MPa and 340 °C.

0.123%Pd encapsulated in nanosized silicalite-1 (MFI) zeolite catalysts has been prepared by direct hydrothermal conditions, and its catalytic performance at the low concentration methane combustion was studied. The temperatures for methane ignition ( T 10% ), the half-conversion temperature ( T 50% ) and the total conversion temperature ( T 90% ) over Pd/S-1-in (in-situ method) catalyst are 261, 329 and 382 °C, respectively, which are lower than the corresponding temperatures of Pd/S-1-im (incipient impregnation method) catalyst. Moreover, the properties are further enhanced by introducing CeO 2 into the Pd/S-1-in catalyst. The conversion rate decreased slightly from 91 to 85% when the reaction is carried out at 450 °C for 100 h at the gas hourly space velocities (GHSV) of 112500 mL g −1 h −1 . The XPS analysis showed that Pd clusters were encapsulated within the porous rather than on the surface of the crystal by in-situ method. The HRTEM studies demonstrated that the Pd particle encapsulated within Silicalite-1 zeolites are well dispersed and evenly distributed throughout the Silicalite-1 zeolites. The average size of in situ Pd particle encapsulated in Silicalite-1 zeolite is 1.7 nm, which is much smaller than the impregnated Pd/S-1-im catalyst (2.8 nm).

This paper reports a surfactant-free synthesis of clean-surface dendritic Pd nanostructures. The key of this synthetic strategy was using ethanol as a reductant to directly reduce Pd(OH) 2 . In terms of electrocatalytic methanol oxidation in alkaline media, the clean-surface and self-supported Pd nanostructures are beneficial to a high catalytic performance, including superior electrocatalytic activity and stability. The as-prepared dendritic Pd shows 2.57 and 4.39 times higher specific activity than palladium nanoparticles and a commercial Pd/C catalyst, respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the clean-surface nanoparticles exhibit higher performance than that of the surfactant-capped Pd nanostructures for methanol electro-oxidation. Therefore, the dendritic Pd nanostructures are potential candidates as the efficient electrode material in fuel cells.

Direct CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol provides a means of CO 2 fixation and a way of hydrogen storage in a more energy-dense and transportable form. Pd-ZnO catalysts can be active for this reaction, but their activities are strongly associated with the preparation methods which influence the dispersion and stability of Pd nanoparticle. Here we report a novel fabrication of highly effective PdZn alloy catalysts derived from Pd@zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) for the hydrogenation of CO 2 . The confinement of subnanometric Pd particles in the pore framework of ZIF-8 facilitates the formation of Pd-ZnO interfaces with strong-metal-support-interaction (SMSI) after a simple pyrolysis under air condition. The porous texture and high surface area of ZnO ensures a high dispersion of Pd nanoparticles. Different pyrolysis temperatures were studied in catalysis and the highest methanol yield reached 0.65 g g cat −1 h −1 at 270 °C, 4.5 MPa, with a TOF of 972 h −1 , over a PdZn catalyst prepared at 400 °C. Such excellent activity has ranked the top reported values over advanced Pd-based catalysts under comparable conditions. The crucial factors for such high methanol yield are the formation of small-sized PdZn alloy particles after H 2 reduction and abundant surface oxygen defects on ZnO. The SMSI between PdZn and ZnO also ensures a long term stability of our PdZn catalysts. At last, we propose the active site that was strongly associated with methanol formation is a PdZn alloy rather than metallic Pd.

Pd catalysts on mesoporous silica SBA-15 functionalized with alkyltriethoxysilane (alkyl = methyl, ethyl, propyl and isobutyl) were prepared. The effects of grafting sequence on the grafting amount were studied. The catalysts were characterized by XRD , FT-IR, elemental analysis , thermogravimetric analysis , nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM and XPS , and evaluated using catalytic hydrogenation of 2-ethyl-anthraquinone. The grafting amount increases with increasing the alkyl chain length of alkyltriethoxysilane. The highest grafting amount with the carbon content of 1.56% is obtained using an ante-grafting procedure where the grafting is performed prior to the removal of template, and this catalyst shows the highest activity and selectivity (98.3%). The accordant relationship between the activity of Pd/SBA-15 catalysts and their grafting amount indicates a positive effect of hydrophobicity of SBA-15 created by grafting on the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-ethyl-anthraquinone.

Hydrocinnamaldehyde (HCAL) is a crucial intermediate in the manufacture of perfumes and pharmaceuticals, but highly selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (CALD) to hydrocinnamaldehyde with a good conversion rate is a challenging. We report that the incorporation of Ag into Pd-based catalysts promotes their catalytic activity and HCAL selectivity (HCAL selectivity of 98.6% with >99.9% CALD conversion for Pd-0.3Ag/MCM-41) for CALD hydrogenation compared to those of catalysts with no Ag, e.g., HCAL selectivity of 84.5% for Pd/MCM-41and 77.3% for Pd/AC (activated carbon). The Pd-0.3Ag/MCM-41 catalyst shows an outstanding stability during five cycles of use. The excellent performance of the Pd-0.3Ag/MCM-41 catalyst in CALD hydrogenation is due to the ultra-small size of the Pd nanoparticles (Pd-Ag alloy, a geometric and electronic modification of Pd).

Graphical Effective synergy : The Pd−GaO x /Al 2 O 3 catalysts are prepared via the oxidative transformation of intermetallic Pd 5 Ga 3 nanocrystals supported on Al 2 O 3 . A synergistic effect between palladium and gallium oxide via formation of a bi-functional active Pd−O−Ga phase is observed, resulting in a highly active and exceptionally stable catalyst that can markedly suppress the sintering of noble metals under harsh conditions. Surface oxygen vacancies and the surface Pd−O−Ga phase are the catalytically active sites. Catalytic combustion of methane is widely used in industrial and transportation activities. The commonly used Pd-based catalysts, however, are easily deactivated under hydrothermal conditions. In this work, we adopted a novel strategy to prepare a GaO x -doped Pd/Al 2 O 3 catalyst via the oxidative transformation of intermetallic Pd 5 Ga 3 nanocrystals supported on γ -Al 2 O 3 . We observed a synergistic effect between palladium and gallium oxide via formation of a bi-functional active Pd−O−Ga phase, resulting in a highly active and exceptionally stable catalyst that could markedly suppress the sintering of noble metals under harsh conditions (hydrothermal treatment at 750 °C). Moreover, the presence of a large amount of surface oxygen vacancies and the surface Pd−O−Ga phase could promote methane combustion over the catalysts. It is believed that such a novel dual-metal catalyst is promising in practical applications for methane combustion.

In recent years, a significant challenge in material science has been to fabricate novel functional nanomaterials to mimic the function of natural enzymatic systems. Herein, ternary polyaniline (PANi)–MnO2–Pd nanowires (NWs) are synthesized through a two-step redox reaction process. The prepared PANi–MnO2–Pd NWs were explored to exhibit dual responsive enzyme-like efficiencies, e.g., peroxidase and oxidase-like activities. With the assistance of H2O2, the obtained ternary PANi–MnO2–Pd NWs were able to oxidize the typical peroxidase substrate of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to yield the oxidized TMB with a blue color, exhibiting a much better peroxidase-like activity than the synthesized PANi–MnO2 NWs alone and Pd nanoparticles owing to the interfacial electron transfer effect among the components. In addition, in the absence of H2O2, the prepared PANi–MnO2–Pd NWs could also oxidize TMB to display an excellent oxidase-like activity. Based on the dual responsive enzyme-like characteristic of the obtained ternary PANi–MnO2–Pd NWs, a rapid and applicative colorimetric way to sensitively determine l-cysteine and ascorbic acid (AA) has been developed. The limits of detection based on the two systems were estimated to be as low as 118 and 34 nM, respectively. We believe that the prepared ternary PANi–MnO2–Pd NWs with both peroxidase and oxidase-like activities will show broad potential applications in bioscience and bioengineering.
