Abstract Palladium oxide was detected by XPS and IR (Attenuated Total Reflection) analysis of the surface of a Pd electrode which was polarized in the medium 1 M KOH. This oxide set a peak of Pd 3d 5/2 shifted 3.5 eV with respect to the metal which is a much higher value than those reported and obtained for PdO and PdO 2 . An IR absorption band of 535 cm −1 was found to be different from those reported in the literature of PdO and PdO 2 . The presence of this oxide is in agreement with results obtained using electrochemical methods where the existence of PdO 3 has been assumed.
