Pd nanoparticles supported on a microporous covalent triazine polymer for hydrogen production from formic acid decomposition

초록

*Pd nanoparticles (NPs) supported on a microporous covalent triazine-based polymer (Pd/MCTP-1) was prepared and applied for formic acid decomposition at 323 K. *The catalytic activity of Pd/MCTP-1 for H2 production was superior to those of Pd/MOFs (metal-organic frameworks), which was attributed to the two factors of i) monodisperse and smaller Pd NPs and ii) neutral pH of the reaction medium attained. *Pd/MCTP-1 was highly stable and the catalytic activity was maintained up to three recycle runs.
