title: Amine-borane assisted synthesis of wavy palladium nanorods on graphene as efficient catalysts for formic acid oxidation.
abstract: Wavy palladium (Pd) nanorods were obtained by controlled synthesis by using amine-boranes as the reducing agents. Thanks to the unique structure and strong interaction with graphene, the as-synthesized Pd nanorods supported on graphene exhibit much enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards formic acid oxidation as compared with Pd nanoparticles.
