Abstract

Dispersed palladium catalysts supported on carbon were prepared using different strong oxidants for preliminary treatment of the support. The surface properties of carbon and its ability to give place to highly dispersed Pd were discussed. Oxidative pre-treatment was shown to promote the dispersion significantly increasing the catalytic activity.
