Palladium(II) oxide (PdO) is a p-type semiconductor with a band gap of 2.2-2.7 eV. It is widely used as an efficient catalyst for oxidation reactions of hydrocarbons and for fabrication of gas sensors.
Application
Ceria supported Palladium(II) oxide can be used as a catalyst for ozonation of oxalate, to enhance the degradation of recalcitrant organics in polluted water. PdO provides active sites for the decomposition of ozone to surface atomic oxygen. Itcan be used as a cocatalyst for partial oxidation of alcohols on the WO3catalyst.

The optical reflectance and transmittance of Platinum oxide (PtO(x)) and palladium oxide (PdO(x)) thin films for ultrahigh-density optical storage are investigated using Z-scan technique under irradiation of blue laser (442 nm). The power thresholds of the PtO(x) and PdO(x) decomposition
Removal of arsenic species from water by palladium-modified nitrogen-doped titanium oxide (TiON/PdO) nanoparticles was investigated with and without visible light. For the first time, a high degree of As(III) removal undervisible light illumination was demonstrated on oxide photocatalysts. Over 2
A novel composite photocatalyst of nitrogen (N) and fluorine (F) codoped titanium oxide (TiO(2)) nanotube arrays with dispersed palladium oxide (PdO) nanoparticles was developed by dispersing PdO nanoparticles into N and F codoped TiO(2) nanotube array template created by anodization
