Fabrication of AuPd bimetallic nanoparticles and their effects on hydrogenation reactions

As catalytic reactions reach nearly 40 % of the world GDP, enhancing the catalytic properties of scarce metals, generating highly active, selective and durable catalysts is critical. Bimetallic AuPd NPs present enhanced activity and selectivity in hydrogenation reactions. However, the mechanisms beh...
