Article Synopsis
- The study discusses an effective method to immobilize noble metal nanoparticles (Ag, Au, Pd) on g-CN using ultrasonic techniques for enhanced catalytic activity.
- The Pd@g-CN composite showed the highest efficiency in converting 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol, achieving nearly 100% conversion within 4 minutes in the presence of sodium borohydride.
- The research highlights the dual role of g-CN as a stabilizer and a support for noble metals, enhancing the performance and stability of the catalysts for potential use in environmental applications.
