Abstract

Abstract We report a nanocarbon material with nanodiamond (ND) core and graphene shell (ND@G) as a support for Pd nanocatalysts. The designed catalyst performed good selectivity of styrene (85.2%) at full conversion of phenylacetylene and superior stability under mild conditions. Supported Pd catalysts are characterized by means of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Raman, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR). The results clearly show that formation of the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) between Pd nanoclusters and the defective graphene shell helpfully modifies the selectivity and stability of the Pd-based catalysts.
