We have examined model systems for the recently reported Pd-Ga Supported Catalytically Active Liquid Metal Solutions (SCALMS) catalysts using near-ambient pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) under oxidizing conditions. Gallium is...
Supported liquid phase catalysis has great potential to unify the advantages from both, homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Recently, we reported Supported Catalytically Active Liquid Metal Solutions (SCALMS) as a new...
A facile route to prepare catalytically active materials from a liquid metal alloy is introduced. Sonication of liquid galinstan (GaInSn) in alkaline solution or treating it with reducing agents generates In : Sn rich microspheres that are catalytically active for electron transfer reactions such as potassium ferricyanide and 4-nitrophenol reduction.
