Isolated Pd Sites as Selective Catalysts for Electrochemical and Direct Hydrogen Peroxide Synthesis
Abstract
<p>Palladium nanoparticles have been studied extensively as catalysts for the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, where selectivity remains a key challenge. Alloying Pd with other metals and using acid and halide promoters are commonly employed to increase H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> selectivity; however, the sites that can selectively produce H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> have not been identified and the role of these additives remains unclear. Here, we report the synthesis of atomically dispersed PdCl<sub>x</sub>/C as a model catalyst for H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> production without the presence of extended Pd surfaces. We show that these isolated cationic Pd sites can form H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> with significantly higher selectivity than metallic Pd nanoparticles in both the reaction of H<sub>2</sub> and O<sub>2</sub> and the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction. These results demonstrate that catalysts containing high populations of isolated Pd sites are selective catalysts for this two-electron reduction reaction and that the performance of materials in the direct synthesis reaction and electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction has many similarities.</p>
