The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), fieldemission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The nanofibers are not cross-linked and arranged in order. The surface of Pd NPs/CNFs is smooth, and it can be observed that a large number of particles were loaded and well-dispersed in carbon fiber matrix, and the particle distribution is uniform. The activity center of catalyst is Pd^(0). The Pd NPs/CNFs exhibited a high efficiency, good reusability and stability in the Suzuki and Heck reactions. It can be used for at least five consecutive runs without significant loss of its catalytic activity. The good recyclability of Pd NPs/CNFs provides a way to greatly reduce the cost of the catalyst.展开更多

Various factors that influenced the NP morphologies, including reaction time, temperature, and precursor concentration were studied. The as-prepared Pd NPs/WNM showed good catalytic performance for Suzuki coupling reactions.展开更多

In this paper, Electrocatalytically active palladium nanoparticles(Pd NPs) on MWNTs with the high-performance and excellent solubility polymer, poly(dimethylbenzimidazolium) iodide(P(DMBI)-I-)as modifier and glue was first discussed. The results of transmission electron microscopy(TEM) demonstrate a better dispersion of MWNTs with the assist of P(DMBI)-I-. The Raman spectra indicate a strong π-π interaction between MWNTs and P(DMBI)-I-. Taking advantages of the coordination effect of imidazole groups and the electrostatic attraction to Pd NPs, the prepared Pd/MWNTs-P(DMBI)-I-(Pd/MPDI-) hybrid is of well electrocatalytic activity to the ethanol fuel cells by electrochemical measurements. So it is believed that P(DMBI)-Ican be further applied in the dispersion of different carbon-based materials and metal nanoparticles for fabricating more novel composites for catalyst and electrode material.展开更多
