Solid catalyst supports of SiOx-RGO (Reduced Graphene Oxide) and UiO-67 (Universitet i Oslo) have been successfully synthesized and were loaded with palladium nanoparticles to test for a series of heterogeneous reactions. The SiOx/RGO catalysts were synthesized through laser ablation of silicon and graphite oxide micron powder and UiO-67 metal-organic framework (MOF) was synthesized through mixing of precursors with DMF/HCl solution and washing the resultant powder from impurities. The SiOx/RGO supports were later impregnated with palladium precursors which were then subject to Microwave Irradiation (MWI). The UiO-67 framework was impregnated with palladium precursors and was irradiated with pulsed Nd:YAG 532 nm …
