Pd nanocrystals encapsulated in MOF-derived Ni/N-doped hollow carbon nanosheets for efficient thermal CO oxidation: unveiling the effect of porosity by Ipadeola, Adewale K.

“…Conspicuously, the T100 of Pd/Ni-MOF-HNC was lower than those of most previously reported Pd-based catalysts due to the high porosity, surface area, and electronic interaction of Pd/Ni-Nx, and Ni-metal defects, which promote the adsorption/activation of reactants (CO + O2), decrease the activation energy to 73.1 kJ mol−1 and enhance the reaction rate at the same CO conversion percentage. …”
