In situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Study of Fe@FexOy/Pd and Fe@FexOy/Cu Nanoparticle Catalysts Prepared by Galvanic Exchange Reactions
(American Chemical Society, 2015)
Fe@FexOy core–shell nanoparticles have been previously shown to be a versatile support for catalytic metals such as Pd and Cu. However, the resulting structure, metal speciation, and performance of such catalysts in catalytic ...
Watching Iron Nanoparticles Rust: An In Situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Study
(American Chemical Society, 2014)
Iron nanoparticles and iron oxide nanoparticles are among the most commonly studied nanomaterials because of their applications in fields ranging from catalysis to ferrofluids. However, many synthetic methods give iron ...
Water shifts PdO-catalyzed lean methane combustion to Pt-catalyzed rich combustion in Pd-Pt catalysts: In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2017)
The addition of platinum to palladium is known to provide bimetallic catalysts that are relatively active in lean methane combustion in the presence of water at temperatures below 773 K, which is of practical interest for ...
in situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Analysis of Gold-Palladium Bimetallic Nanoparticle Catalysts
(American Chemical Society, 2013)
Gold–palladium core–shell nanoparticles have been previously shown to be extremely effective catalysts for a number of oxidation reactions including the aerobic oxidation of alcohols. However, the novel activity and ...
Following the Reactivity of Au25(SC8H9)18 - Clusters With Pd2+ and Ag+ Ions Using in Situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy: A Tale of Two Metals
(American Chemical Society, 2015)
This work examines the reaction between Au25(SC8H9)18– clusters with palladium acetate (Pd2+) and silver nitrate (Ag+) using UV–vis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS), ...
Rational Design and Characterization of Bimetallic Gold-Palladium Nanoparticle Catalysts
(Wiley, 2015)
This feature article covers a long‐term project in our laboratory at the University of Saskatchewan towards the rational synthesis of controlled‐architectures of gold‐palladium bimetallic nanoparticle catalysts for use as ...
In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies of magnetic Fe@FexOy/Pd nanoparticle catalysts for hydrogenation reactions
(Elsevier, 2017)
Core@shell Fe@FexOy nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted a great deal of interest as potential magnetic supports for catalytic metals via galvanic exchange reactions. In this study Fe@FexOy/Pd bimetallic NPs were synthesized ...
Platinum Inhibits Low‐Temperature Dry Lean Methane Combustion through Palladium Reduction in Pd−Pt/Al2O3: An In Situ X‐ray Absorption Study
(Wiley, 2017)
Palladium–platinum bimetallic catalysts supported on alumina with palladium/platinum molar ratios ranging from 0.25 to 4 are studied in dry lean methane combustion in the temperature range of 200 to 500 °C. Platinum addition ...
X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Studies of the Penetrability of Hollow Iron Oxide Nanoparticles by Galvanic Exchange Reactions
(American Chemical Society, 2017)
Hollow Fe oxide nanoparticles have many applications in catalysis, drug delivery, and energy storage. Hollow Fe oxide shells can also be used for preventing the sintering of catalytically active cores and for magnetic ...
