Abstract: In this work, palladium nanoparticles/graphene/SBA-15 (Pd/G/SBA-15) nanocomposites
were fabricated using a facile method and characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, and FT-IR, respectively.
The as-prepared Pd/G/SBA-15 exhibited high catalytic activity for the Suzuki coupling reaction.
The catalyst can be easily recycled and reused at least four times without a remarkable loss of its
catalytic activity.
