▎ 摘　　要

A composite material of Pd-Ni nanoparticles supported on reduced graphene oxide (Pd-Ni/rGO) has been synthesised via an in situ reduction of PdO/Ni(OH)(2) nanoparticles on GO. This Pd-Ni/rGO material is characterised by powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The molar ratio of Pd/Ni in the alloy nanoparticles can be fine tuned by changing the starting ratio of Pd/Ni precursors during synthesis. The bimetallic Pd3Ni/rGO exhibits high catalytic activity, selectivity, and durability toward the hydrogen generation from hydrazine, while corresponding monometallic (Pd/rGO or Ni/rGO) counterparts are either inactive or poorly active under analogous reaction conditions.
