【摘要】Hydrogen production from formic acid decomposition（FAD） is a promising means of hydrogen energy storage and utilization in fuel cells. Development of efficient catalysts for dehydrogenation of formic acid is a challenging topic. The surface chemical and electronic structure of the active catalysis components is important in formic acid decomposition at room-temperature. Here, the pyrdinic-nitrogen doped catalysts from hyperbranched polyamide were prepared via in situ polymerization reaction process by using activated carbon as a support. Because of the introduction of the polymer, the particles of the catalysts were stabilized, and the average particle diameter was only 1.64 nm. Under mild conditions, the catalysts activities were evaluated for FAD. The optimized Pd-N30/C catalyst exhibited high performance achieving almost full conversion, with a turnover frequency of 3481 h-1 at 30 °C.
