In this study, a new catalytic hybrid material (Pd@rGO-SO3H), comprising sulfonated reduced graphene oxide (rGO-SO3H) and palladium (Pd), was developed. This material serves as a highly efficient and reusable catalyst in the hydrogen production from EDB hydrolysis. The synthesized EDB, rGO-SO3H, and Pd@rGO-SO3H were characterized using ICP-OES, PXRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, and TEM/EDX tools. The initial TOF value of the Pd@rGO-SO3H catalyst in hydrogen production from EDB hydrolysis was calculated as 136 min- 1. This TOF value was found to be remarkably high compared to related studies in the literature. The reusability performance of Pd@rGO-SO3H was observed to be quite stable. Finally, activation parameters, such as activation energy (Ea), activation enthalpy (Delta H#), and activation entropy (Delta S#) for the hydrolysis reaction, were calculated by conducting catalytic reactions at different temperatures using relevant equations.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCatalysisEthylenediamine-BisboraneHydrogenPalladiumSulfonated Reduced Graphene OxideArticle67Q1Q1506515WOS:001298140800001
