Direct IR observation of vibrational properties of carbonyl species formed on Pd nano-particles supported on amorphous carbon: comparison with Pd/SiO2–Al2O3

Abstract

By diluting optically opaque carbon-supported Pd particles in silica Aerosil® we succeeded in observing the IR bands of adsorbed carbonyls and extracting information on the particle dispersion. Comparison with literature single crystal data and with silicaalumina supported Pd allowed us to make an assignment in terms of linear and 2-fold bridged carbonyls formed on Pd(111) and Pd(100) faces. Two Pd/C samples have been investigated. The relative intensities of the two carbonyl families observed on the two samples are consistent with the Pd dispersion independently measured with CO chemisorption, TEM and EXAFS analysis.
