Abstract

Hydrogen sorption properties of ultrasmall Pd nanoparticles (2.5 nm) embedded in a mesoporous carbon template have been determined and compared to those of the bulk system. Downsizing the Pd particle size introduces significant modifications of the hydrogen sorption properties. The total amount of s...
