The Koma scripts for LaTeX use sans-serif headings. Try this:
#+name: koma-article
#+header: :results silent
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'ox-latex)
(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
'("koma-article"
"\\documentclass{scrartcl}
\\usepackage{microtype}
\\usepackage{tgtermes}
\\usepackage[scale=.9]{tgheros}
\\usepackage{tgcursor}"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}")))
#+end_src
This uses the beautiful TeX-Gyre fonts. I haven't checked if they have a
Palatino clone--if so, I'd be inclined to use it. If not, then you'll
want to replace tgtermes with mathpazo and give a bit more leading with
\\linespread{1.05}.
You can put this code block in your local library of Babel and then load
it on a buffer-local basis, like this:
# Local Variables:
# eval: (org-sbe "koma-article")
# End:
Beware of org-sbe, which used to be just sbe. You might need something
like this:
# eval: (and (fboundp 'org-sbe) (not (fboundp 'sbe)) (fset 'sbe 'org-sbe))
