Abstract

Incorporation of bromide anions (1.0 wt%) in supported Pd catalysts (viz. Pd supported on Al2O3, ZrO2, SiO2, H-β or Ga2O3) leads to a drastic increase in their selectivity for H2O2 formation in the direct oxidation of H2 to H2O2 by O2 (at room temperature) in an aqueous acidic (0.03 M H3PO4) reaction medium; the selectivity increase is accompanied by a large decrease in the H2O2 decomposition activity of the catalysts.
