Abstract
Porous palladium nanostructures were prepared on a copper sheet previously fixed over the plasma high-temperature area by H2+He arc plasma method. However, dispersed palladium nanoparticles with diameters in 50–90 nm were obtained on the inner wall of vacuum chamber. SEM, TEM, EDXA, XRD and BET were employed to characterize the palladium porous materials. SEM images show that porous palladium nanostructures are composed of spherical particles with diameters of 35 ± 3 nm. This special structure with large surface to volume ratio can be recycled easily for application in the field of catalysis.
