Pd/Co双金属纳米颗粒(BNPs)的催化活性远高于Pd与Co单金属纳米颗粒的活性; 当Pd/Co的理论原子比为1/9时, 双金属纳米颗粒的催化活性最高可达15570 mol·mol^-1·h^-1 (文中纳米颗粒的催化活性均为每摩尔Pd的活性). 密度泛函理论(DFT)的计算结果表明, Pd原子与Co原子之间发生电荷转移, 使得Pd原子带负电而Co原子带正电, 荷电的Pd和Co原子进而成为催化反应的活性中心. 所制备的Pd/Co双金属纳米颗粒具有很好的催化耐久性, 即使重复使用5次后, 该催化剂仍具有较高的催化活性, 且使用后的纳米颗粒催化剂也没有出现团聚现象. 双金属纳米颗粒催化NaBH₄水解反应的活化能约为54 kJ·mol^-1.     

Bimetallic Pd/Sn-based Nanoparticles and their Catalytic Properties in the Semihydrogenation of Diphenylacetylene

Multimetallic nanoparticles often enhance the catalytic performance of their monometallic counterparts by increasing reaction rates, catalyst selectivity, and/or stability. A prerequisite for understanding structure- and composition-associated properties, however, is the careful design of multimetallic nanoparticles with various structures and compositions. Here, bimetallic Pd/Sn-based nanoparticles are prepared with a tunable composition and structure exploiting ionic liquids (ILs) as reaction medium (i. e., methyltrioctylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide). The nanoparticles are obtained in a one-pot synthetic procedure by reducing the metal salt precursors with triethylborohydride in the IL. The results show that the reaction parameters, in particular the nature and ratio of the Pd²⁺/Sn²⁺ precursors as well as the reaction temperature, influence NP formation and composition. X-ray diffraction with Rietveld analysis and transmission electron microscopy are employed to determine NP size and phase composition. Under optimized reaction conditions Pd₂Sn or PdSn nanocrystals are formed as single-phase products after introducing an additional annealing step at 200 °C. Nanocrystals with intermetallic composition reveal enhanced catalytic properties in the semihydrogenation of diphenylacetylene which was used as a model reaction.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Bimetallic Copper-Gold Nanoparticles

We have synthesized copper-gold, core-shell nanoparticles by the microemulsion method. The particles were prepared in two steps, by first reducing copper ions and then gold ions in the aqueous domains of anionic microemulsions. Two surfactants have been used as emulsifiers, AOT and Cu(AOT)₂. The latter is the source of copper ions. Gold ions come from aqueous solutions of HAuCl₄. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy experiments show that copper nanoparticles are created in the first step of the synthesis, and that a gold layer covers them in the second step. Transmission electron microscopy and related techniques confirm the formation of copper (core)-gold (shell) nanocrystals.

Synthesis and Catalytic Applications of Dendrimer-Templated Bimetallic Nanoparticles

Dendrimers, well-defined hyper-branched macromolecules with characteristic globular structure, have emerged as an attractive material in the field of catalysis and have been considered as a new type of host for the accommodation of guest molecules by virtue of their three-dimensional structure having interior void space. In line with the prospect of dendrimer as a nanoreactor, various metal nanoparticles have been successfully prepared via encapsulation in or formation of particles surrounded by dendrimer branches. However, it is worth noting that most of the previous studies have been confined to the monometallic nanoparticles, and bimetallic nanoparticles have been scarcely exploited yet. In this article, we present the synthesis and characterization of dendrimer-templated bimetallic nanoparticles and their application to catalysis.     

Versatile Synthesis of Polyaniline/Pd Nanoparticles and Catalytic Application

Polyaniline/Pd nanoparticles were synthesized through two approaches. “Direct reduction approach” was revealed to be a simple method to prepare small (2–7 nm) and dispersed polyaniline/Pd nanoparticles via reduction with sodium borohydride. On the other hand, “template approach” was developed to provide a versatile route to small and well-dispersed nanoparticles (1–4 nm, average diameter = 2.4 nm) with high Pd density due to pre-organization of Pd(II) species on polyaniline into the corresponding d,π-conjugated complex. Thus-obtained nanoparticles worked as an efficient redox catalyst for oxidative coupling reaction of 2,6-di-t-butylphenol.

Reductive carbonylation of nitrobenzene over Pd/Fe/I2/Py and Pd/C/Fe/I2/Py catalytic systems

A simple catalytic system containing metallic palladium, iron and iodine has been shown to be very active in the carbonylation of nitrobenzene to carbamate. The influence of the components of the catalytic system studied on its selectivity and activity has been established. It has been found that the catalytic activity of palladium supported on carbon (using both lignite coal and bituminous coal) was not lower than the activity of metallic palladium. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Synthesis of Core-Shell (Pd-Au) Bimetallic Nanoparticles in Microemulsions

Palladium-gold core-shell nanoparticles were synthesized in the aqueous domains of water in oil microemulsions by the sequential reduction of H₂PdCl₄ and HAuCl₄. The nanoparticles were characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The UV-vis spectra confirm the presence of palladium nanoparticles after reducing H₂PdCl₄. These particles have been used as seeds for the core-shell particles. UV-vis spectra show that, after reducing HAuCl₄, the surface plasmon absorption of the nanoparticles is dominated by gold, revealing the encapsulation of the palladium seeds. These results agree with crystallographic analysis performed with high-resolution TEM pictures, as well as with selected area electron diffraction. The TEM pictures show the core-shell nanoparticles with an average diameter of 9.1 nm, as compared with 5 nm for the palladium seeds, in good agreement with the used Pd:Au molar ratio.     

Synthesis of Pd-Based Bimetallic Nanoparticles and Their Effective Electrocatalytic Properties

In this work, we developed a simple and effective one-pot method to synthesize the Pd-based bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). By using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS) mapping and X-ray diffraction (XRD), the morphologies and compositions of the as-prepared bimetallic NPs were investigated in detail. Furthermore, this approach was also used to achieve the highly dispersive Pd-based bimetallic NPs directly on the carbon black. Significantly, the as-obtained carbon-supported Pd-based bimetallic NPs showed excellent electrocatalytic activity for the methanol oxidation. Among the Pd-based bimetallic NPs and the commercial Pd–C, the PdPt–C displayed the best electrocatalytic activity and stability, which may be mainly attributed to the specific nanostructure and the synergetic effect between Pt and Pd atoms.
