Improved performance through milling: A method for enhancing the catalytic activity of supported metal nanoparticles is reported. This method enhances the activity for the ethanol electro-oxidation of a supported palladium catalyst (see picture). The much higher catalytic performance is ascribed to the increased electrochemically active surface area as well as the generation of high-index facets at the milled nanoparticle surface.

Abstract

Improved performance through milling: A method for enhancing the catalytic activity of supported metal nanoparticles is reported. This method enhances the activity for the ethanol electro-oxidation of a supported palladium catalyst (see picture). The much higher catalytic performance is ascribed to the increased electrochemically active surface area as well as the generation of high-index facets at the milled nanoparticle surface.
