The immobilization of palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) on stainless-steel mesh is described in two short steps via deposition of graphene oxide (GO) on the stainless-steel mesh (mesh-GO) by electrophoretic deposition (EPD), preparation of Pd NPs using laser ablation in liquids (LAL) and finally the immobilization of Pd NPs on the mesh-GO by immersion in a Pd NP colloidal solution. The novel, efficient and reusable mesh-GO/Pd catalyst was characterized by various techniques such as SEM, EDS, UV-Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy and its catalytic activity was investigated for the Suzuki–Miyaura and Stille coupling reactions in ethanolic water.
