Abstract
Electrophysical and catalytic properties of poly(p-xylylene) films containi ng palladium nanoparticles were studied. For the samples containing 8 vol % of palladium, the ratio between trans- and cis-1,4-dichlorobutene formed b y 3,4-dichlorobutene isomerization is similar to 2, whereas for the samples with lower concentration of palladium, this ratio is 8. These facts correl ate with the attainment of the percolation threshold of the sample conducti vity, and this is associated with the formation of palladium nanoparticle e nsemble.
