    Palladium nanoparticles supported on low-melting polyester (Pd/LMPET) fabric were prepared through a microwave irradiation assisted method. In this way, in situ growth of Pd nanoparticles onto an easy to handle material was initiated and proceeded. The results of the characterization revealed that the palladium nanoparticles were well-dispersed on the surfaces of the polyester fibers. The Pd/LMPET fabrics were then employed in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. They exhibited excellent catalytic activity in ethanol/water under air atmosphere at 50 °C. Importantly, the Pd/LMPET fabrics could be separated from reaction mixture conveniently and they can still maintain good activity after 8 cycles without Pd leaching. © 2021 The Authors
