A simple pulse sonoelectrochemical technique was used to synthesize highly dispersed spherical palladium particles and a dendritic Pd superstructure in the presence of cethyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) at room temperature. The shape and size of spherical nanocrystalline Pd can be controlled by varying current density, the interval between two continuous ultrasonic pulses, ultrasonic intensity, and the concentration of CTAB. The possible growth mechanism of dendritic-structured Pd is discussed.

The present study investigates a process for the selective production of hydrogen from the catalytic decomposition of formic acid in the presence of iridium and iridium–palladium nanoparticles under various conditions. It was found that a loading of 1 wt.% of 2% palladium in the presence of 1% iridium over activated charcoal led to a 43% conversion of formic acid to hydrogen at room temperature after 4 h. Increasing the temperature to 60 °C led to further decomposition and an improvement in conversion yield to 63%. Dilution of formic acid from 0.5 to 0.2 M improved the decomposition, reaching conversion to 81%. The reported process could potentially be used in commercial applications.

Abstract. Recently, there has been increasting interest in the doping of nano-/microcrystal hosts with Sm3+. However, very few examples of Sm3+doped YF3-based nanophosphors have been reported. In this paper, a variety of uniform YF3:Sm nano-/microcrystals have been successfully prepared by a facile, effective, and environmentally friendly hydrothermal method. The morphology evolution process has been investigated by quenching the reaction at different time. Based on the results, a possible growth mechanism is presented in detail. The as-obtained YF3:Sm nano-/microcrystals show strong yellow and red light emissions under room temperature, which is quite different from those reported previously and might find potential applications in fields such as light phosphor powers and advanced flat panel display devices.

Palladium nanoparticles were efficiently prepared in situ by sodium cyanoborohydride reduction of Pd(ii) at room temperature using calcium-cholate hydrogel fibers as templates. The PdNPs self-organize on the gel fibers, which supports the controlled growth as well as stabilization of PdNPs. The hybrid xerogel was used as an efficient catalyst for the Suzuki coupling reaction in water.
