Effect of Ce on Palladium Deposition by Electroless Plating

Abstract:

Palladium composite membranes have been prepared using an electroless plating technique with rare earth element of Ce was added into the plating solution. The effects of the rare earth element on the Pd deposition rate, plating temperature and H₂ permeation flux were studied. The experimental results show that the additions of mixed rare earth element of Ce into the plating solution can increase Pd deposition rates by 15%. The resistance to sulfidation was examined and the membrane sulfur resistance was confirmed by exposure to a combined gas of H₂ and H₂S.
