Preparation of Thin Palladium Membrane on Porous Stainless Stell Support Modified with Cerium Hydroxide

Abstract

A thin palladium membrane can be produced on a stainless steel porous support modified with cerium hydroxide. The membrane with the thickness of 8 μm, prepared by electroless plating, is almost defect-free, and the hydrogen permeation is as high as that with palladium membranes supported on porous ceramics.
