Pd-Au bimetal supported on rutile-TiO2 for selective synthesis of hydrogen peroxide by oxidation of H-2 with O-2 under atmospheric pressure
Rutile TiO2 support is effective for increasing the formation rate as well as selectivity to H2O2. A great enhancement in the H2O2 formation rate and selectivity is achieved by controlling the particle size of Pd-Au (7:3 in weight ratio) alloy, and the average size of 18 nm exhibits the high selectivity to H2O2 under atmospheric pressure.
