From Pd nanoparticles to single crystals: 1,3-butadiene hydrogenation on well-defined model catalysts

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/b513030a

Although 1,3-butadiene hydrogenation is known to be a structure-sensitive reaction, correlation of the catalytic activity with the exact Pd particle surface structure shows that the reaction is in fact particle size independent. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2006.
