The study of hydrogen peroxide reduction in an alkaline aqueous medium on a composite of palladium particles dispersed in an amorphous carbon matrix (Pd@AC) was performed.Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray Lacquer Top spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD) were used to examine morphology, composition, and crystalline structure.The crystalline structure and size of palladium were analyzed using XRD.The reduction of hydrogen peroxide Loft Bed w/Bin was studied through cyclic and square-wave voltammetry in an alkaline solution in the absence and presence of dissolved oxygen.The overall electrocatalytic effect of Pd@AC toward hydrogen peroxide reduction strongly depends on the presence of oxygen and the hydrogen peroxide disproportionation reaction in the three-phase system of amorphous carbon, palladium particles, and electrolyte solution.
