Nanostructured metal is known to have both physical and chemical properties, which has inspired scientific interest for this to be used for heterogeneous catalysis, biosensors and electrocatalysis. The fabrication process involved in creating this metal can influence the shape and size of the nanostructures that are generated during oxidation.<\/span><\/p>\n The electrochemical deposition technique is used to ensure clean metal nanostructures. It is this method that creates the many sharp edges like those on a Christmas tree, thus creating the palladium nanostructure that enhanced the catalytic activity for ascorbic acid oxidation. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
