Abstract
Pure palladium membrane has been successfully fabricated by photocatalytic deposition in fluoride electrolysis bath on TiO2 nanotube arrays which was in situ grown by anodic oxidation on the surface of asymmetric home-made compressed porous titanium foils. Results of SEM, XRD and XPS show that the completed membrane is homogeneous and its thickness is about 0.5 μm. After 8 times thermal shock test, no shedding or crack is observed on this composite material, which shows the excellent hot crisp resistance.
