Zirconium-Assisted Activation of Palladium To Boost Syngas Production by Methane Dry Reforming.

ABSTRACT: C-saturated Pd⁰ nanoparticles with an extended phase boundary to ZrO₂ evolve from a Pd⁰ Zr⁰ precatalyst under CH₄ dry reforming conditions. This highly active catalyst state fosters bifunctional action: CO₂ is efficiently activated at oxidic phase boundary sites and Pd_x C provides fast supply of C-atoms toward the latter.
