Abstract
AuPd bimetallic nanoflowers synthesized by a microorganism-mediated method show excellent catalytic performance and durability toward the hydrogenation of 1,3-butadiene.
Highlights
Metals have found extensive use in many diverse applications ranging from catalysis to electronics, photonics, information storage, sensing, imaging, medicine, and photography, as well as the generation, conversion, and storage of energy.[1]
For Mode A, Au and Pd precursors were simultaneously added into the mixture, and a 50 min interaction between the cells and metal ions was allowed before the addition of ascorbic acid (AA)
Following our previous work on the synthesis of Au nanohorns (Au NHs),[22,23] the MSD approach was expanded to bimetallic nanostructures in this work
Summary
Metals have found extensive use in many diverse applications ranging from catalysis to electronics, photonics, information storage, sensing, imaging, medicine, and photography, as well as the generation, conversion, and storage of energy.[1]. Various methods, including co-reduction,[2,3] pyrolysis,[4] seed-mediated method,[5] hydrothermal method,[6] and galvanic replacement,[7,8,9] have been developed for fabricating bimetallic nanostructures with various shapes.[2,3,6,7,9,10,11,12,13,14] shape control of bimetallic nanostructures based on a versatile strategy still remains challenging.
