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))

hth,
Tom
