 note = {To identify the reasons why Ti–Pd alloys for hydrogen storage materials show good hydrogenation properties, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction were used to investigate a small amount of Pd added Ti–Pd alloys. Pd in or on Ti oxide films is in a valence state of 0 (Pd0). Catalytic activity was shown by Pd0 in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Therefore, the enhanced hydrogenation properties of Ti–Pd alloys for hydrogen storage materials is due to Pd0's catalytic activity in dissociating hydrogen molecules. In addition, the potential catalytic activity of Ti–Pd alloys was shown to be based on a Pd catalyst., This research was financially supported by the Japan Science  and  Technology  Agency's  Matching  PlannerProgram, the Kansai University Fund for Supporting Young Scholars (2015) and  JSPS  KAKENHI  Grant  Number 17K14837.},
