Mesoporous palladium—the surface electrochemistry of palladium in aqueous sodium hydroxide and the cathodic reduction of nitrite
Mesoporous palladium—the surface electrochemistry of palladium in aqueous sodium hydroxide and the cathodic reduction of nitrite
The voltammetry of nanostructured palladium layers electrodeposited from a hexagonal liquid crystal phase onto platinum microdiscs show well defined peaks for the adsorption/desorption of hydrogen and surface oxidation/reduction in 2 M NaOH. These peaks are more clearly resolved than at smooth palladium and reveal the complications associated with hydrogen adsorption/desorption on palladium in aqueous alkaline solutions. The reduction of nitrite at the nanostructured palladium is also reported and it is shown that it occurs via a mechanism involving a chemical reaction between adsorbed hydrogen and adsorbed nitrite ion.

Abstract
The voltammetry of nanostructured palladium layers electrodeposited from a hexagonal liquid crystal phase onto platinum microdiscs show well defined peaks for the adsorption/desorption of hydrogen and surface oxidation/reduction in 2 M NaOH. These peaks are more clearly resolved than at smooth palladium and reveal the complications associated with hydrogen adsorption/desorption on palladium in aqueous alkaline solutions. The reduction of nitrite at the nanostructured palladium is also reported and it is shown that it occurs via a mechanism involving a chemical reaction between adsorbed hydrogen and adsorbed nitrite ion.
