Open AccessHydrogenation of Cinnamaldehyde Using Carbon Dots Reduced Palladium Nanoparticles
Carbon dots (CDs) with a size range of 0.2 to 2 nm were prepared using a hydrothermal treatment of sucrose and oleic acid. The as-synthesized CDs were used to reduce H2PdCl4 to metallic Pd nanoparticles with dPd ...

Platinum supported on pristine and nitrogen-doped bowl-like broken hollow carbon spheres as oxygen reduction reaction catalysts
The development of active and durable proton exchange membrane fuel cell catalysts with high loading (ca. 40%) is critical for the commercialization of hydrogen fuel cells. Herein we report on the synthesis of...

Polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) nanospheres for the synthesis of size-controlled cobalt nanoparticles encapsulated inside hollow carbon spheres
Metal particle agglomeration is known to be one of the factors responsible for the reduction in catalytic activity (even selectivity) when metal particles are supported on carbon. In this study, an approach us...
