Description
Jiefa Shen and co-authors report in 2024 a way to make flower shaped platinum and palladium catalysts on reduced graphene oxide. These tiny metal forms speed up alcohol oxidation, a reaction of use in fuel cells and chemical work. A soap like helper guides the metals into petal like shapes on the graphene sheets.
The flower shaped catalyst is compared with one made by a direct redox route between the metal sources and graphene oxide. In the authors' tests, the flower form showed stronger catalytic activity for alcohol oxidation. Repeated voltage cycling and steady current tests both pointed to strong stability over time. The paper is short, so its main claim is narrow: shape and support together can lift both activity and staying power for these two metal catalysts.
