Oxidation of Reduced Ceria by Incorporation of Hydrogen.

ABSTRACT: The interaction of hydrogen with reduced ceria (CeO_2-x ) powders and CeO_2-x (111) thin films was studied using several characterization techniques including TEM, XRD, LEED, XPS, RPES, EELS, ESR, and TDS. The results clearly indicate that both in reduced ceria powders as well as in reduced single crystal ceria films hydrogen may form hydroxyls at the surface and hydride species below the surface. The formation of hydrides is clearly linked to the presence of oxygen vacancies and is accompanied by the transfer of an electron from a Ce³⁺ species to hydrogen, which results in the formation of Ce⁴⁺ , and thus in oxidation of ceria.

Stabilization of reduced copper on ceria aerogels for CO oxidation.

Project description:Photodeposition of Cu nanoparticles on ceria (CeO2) aerogels generates a high surface area composite material with sufficient metallic Cu to exhibit an air-stable surface plasmon resonance. We show that balancing the surface area of the aerogel support with the Cu weight loading is a critical factor in retaining stable Cu0. At higher Cu weight loadings or with a lower support surface area, Cu aggregation is observed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Analysis of Cu/CeO2 using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy finds a mixture of Cu2+, Cu+, and Cu0, with Cu+ at the surface. At 5 wt% Cu, Cu/CeO2 aerogels exhibit high activity for heterogeneous CO oxidation catalysis at low temperatures (94% conversion of CO at 150 °C), substantially out-performing Cu/TiO2 aerogel catalysts featuring the same weight loading of Cu on TiO2 (20% conversion of CO at 150 °C). The present study demonstrates an extension of our previous concept of stabilizing catalytic Cu nanoparticles in low oxidation states on reducing, high surface area aerogel supports. Changing the reducing power of the support modulates the catalytic activity of mixed-valent Cu nanoparticles and metal oxide support.

Hydrogen Incorporation in Plagioclase.

Project description:We conducted experiments at high pressure (P) and temperature (T) to measure hydrogen solubility in plagioclase (Pl) with a range of compositions (An15 to An94). Experiments were run at 700-850 °C, 0.5 GPa, and f O 2 close to either the Ni-NiO (NNO) or iron-wüstite (IW) oxygen buffers. Experiments at 700 °C on An15 (containing 0.03 wt% FeO) reveal no dependence of H solubility on f O 2 between IW and NNO, but experiments at 800-850 °C on other compositions (with 0.3-0.5 wt% FeO) demonstrate that H solubility is enhanced by a factor of ~2 to 3 at IW compared to NNO, consistent with previous experiments by Yang (2012a) on An58. By analogy with synthetic hydrogen feldspar (HAlSi3O8), we infer that the predominant mechanism for H incorporation in Pl is through bonding to O atoms adjacent to M-site vacancies, and we propose likely O sites for H incorporation based on M-O bond lengths in anhydrous Pl structures. Increased uptake of structurally bound H at low f O 2 is explained by the formation of defect associates resulting from the reduction of Fe3+ in tetrahedral sites to Fe2+, allowing additional H to be incorporated in adjacent M-site vacancies. This mechanism counteracts the expected effect of water fugacity on H solubility. We also speculate on possible substitutions of H on tetrahedral vacancies, as well as coupled H-F substitution. Enhanced incorporation of H in Pl at low f O 2 may have implications for estimating the water content of the lunar magma ocean. However, mechanisms unrelated to low f O 2 are needed to explain high H contents in terrestrial Pl xenocrysts, such as those found in basalts from the Basin and Range.

Transition-Metal Doped Ceria Microspheres with Nanoporous Structures for CO Oxidation.

Project description:Catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) is of great importance in many different fields of industry. Until now it still remains challenging to use non-noble metal based catalysts to oxidize CO at low temperature. Herein, we report a new class of nanoporous, uniform, and transition metal-doped cerium (IV) oxide (ceria, CeO2) microsphere for CO oxidation catalysis. The porous and uniform microsphere is generated by sacrificed polymer template. Transition-metals, like Cu, Co, Ni, Mn and Fe, were doped into CeO2 microspheres. The combination of hierarchical structure and metal doping afford superior catalytic activities of the doped ceria microspheres, which could pave a new way to advanced non-precious metal based catalysts for CO oxidation.

Stable Pd-Doped Ceria Structures for CH4 Activation and CO Oxidation.

Project description:Doping CeO2 with Pd atoms has been associated with catalytic CO oxidation, but current surface models do not allow CO adsorption. Here, we report a new structure of Pd-doped CeO2(111), in which Pd adopts a square planar configuration instead of the previously assumed octahedral configuration. Oxygen removal from this doped structure is favorable. The resulting defective Pd-doped CeO2 surface is active for CO oxidation and is also able to cleave the first C-H bond in methane. We show how the moderate CO adsorption energy and dynamic features of the Pd atom upon CO adsorption and CO oxidation contribute to a low-barrier catalytic cycle for CO oxidation. These structures, which are also observed for Ni and Pt, can lead to a more open coordination environment around the doped-transition-metal center. These thermally stable structures are relevant to the development of single-atom catalysts.

Water-Assisted Homolytic Dissociation of Propyne on a Reduced Ceria Surface.

Project description:The emergence of ceria (CeO2 ) as an efficient catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of alkynes has attracted great attention. Intensive research effort has been devoted to understanding the underlying catalytic mechanism, in particular the H2 -CeO2 interaction. Herein, we show that the adsorption of propyne (C3 H4 ) on ceria, another key aspect in the hydrogenation of propyne to propene, strongly depends on the degree of reduction of the ceria surface and hydroxylation of the surface, as well as the presence of water. The dissociation of propyne and the formation of methylacetylide (CH3 CC-) have been identified through the combination of infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) and DFT calculations. We demonstrate that propyne undergoes heterolytic dissociation on the reduced ceria surface by forming a methylacetylide ion on the oxygen vacancy site and transferring a proton to the nearby oxygen site (OH group), while a water molecule that competes with the chemisorbed methylacetylide at the vacancy site assists the homolytic dissociation pathway by rebounding the methylacetylide to the nearby oxygen site.

Ceria/cobalt borate hybrids as efficient electrocatalysts for water oxidation under neutral conditions.

Project description:Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts are of importance for electrochemical water splitting and fuel generation. Despite enormous efforts, the design and development of OER catalysts with high catalytic activities under neutral conditions are highly desired but still remain a great challenge. Herein, we report a room temperature chemical route to prepare xceria/cobalt borate (xCeO2/Co-Bi) hybrids as efficient OER catalysts by tuning the molar ratio of Ce/Co (x represents the amount of CeO2). The optimised catalyst (20CeO2/Co-Bi hybrid) was found to exhibit remarkable OER catalytic activity with an overpotential of 453 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2, Tafel slope of 120 mV dec-1 and long-term stability in neutral medium due to its good conductivity, mass transportation and strong synergetic coupling effects, showing the potential of Co-based electrochemical materials for practical application in energy storage devices.

Experimental evidence for hydrogen incorporation into Earth's core.

Project description:Hydrogen is one of the possible alloying elements in the Earth's core, but its siderophile (iron-loving) nature is debated. Here we experimentally examined the partitioning of hydrogen between molten iron and silicate melt at 30-60 gigapascals and 3100-4600 kelvin. We find that hydrogen has a metal/silicate partition coefficient DH ≥ 29 and is therefore strongly siderophile at conditions of core formation. Unless water was delivered only in the final stage of accretion, core formation scenarios suggest that 0.3-0.6 wt% H was incorporated into the core, leaving a relatively small residual H2O concentration in silicates. This amount of H explains 30-60% of the density deficit and sound velocity excess of the outer core relative to pure iron. Our results also suggest that hydrogen may be an important constituent in the metallic cores of any terrestrial planet or moon having a mass in excess of ~10% of the Earth.

In situ Raman analyses of the soot oxidation reaction over nanostructured ceria-based catalysts.

Project description:To reduce the emissions of internal combustion engines, ceria-based catalysts have been widely investigated as possible alternatives to the more expensive noble metals. In the present work, a set of four different ceria-based materials was prepared via hydrothermal synthesis, studying the effect of Cu and Mn as dopants both in binary and ternary oxides. In situ Raman analyses were carried out to monitor the behaviour of defect sites throughout thermal cycles and during the soot oxidation reaction. Despite ceria doped with 5% of Cu featured the highest specific surface area, reducibility and amount of intrinsic and extrinsic defects, a poor soot oxidation activity was observed through the standard activity tests. This result was confirmed by the calculation of soot conversion curves obtained through a newly proposed procedure, starting from the Raman spectra collected during the in situ tests. Moreover, Raman analyses highlighted that new defectiveness was produced on the Cu-doped catalyst at high temperature, especially after soot conversion, while a slight increase of the defect band and a total reversibility were observed in case of the ternary oxide and pure/Mn-doped ceria, respectively. The major increment was related to the extrinsic defects component; tests carried out in different atmospheres suggested the assignment of this feature to vacancy-free sites containing oxidized doping cations. Its increase at the end of the tests can be an evidence of peroxides and superoxides deactivation on catalysts presenting excessive oxygen vacancy concentrations. Instead, ceria doped with 5% of Mn exhibited the best soot oxidation activity, thanks to an intermediate density of oxygen vacancies and to its well-defined morphology.

Determining the maximum lanthanum incorporation in the fluorite structure of La-doped ceria nanocubes for enhanced redox ability.

Project description:Ceria nanocubes have been doped with increasing amounts of lanthanum to enhance their redox ability. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques provide a consistent picture indicating that there is an upper limit to the lanthanum that can be incorporated in the fluorite structure of ceria nanocubes, which is close to 7.5 mol% La. This limited loading is nevertheless able to produce a significant enhancement of the ceria redox ability as evidenced by use of X-ray absorption spectroscopy to determine the Ce3+/Ce4+ ratio in samples submitted to a degassing treatment at room temperature.

Reduced Oxygen Permeability upon Protein Incorporation Within Phospholipid Bilayers.

Project description:Intracellular oxygenation is key to energy metabolism as well as tumor radiation therapy. Although integral proteins are ubiquitous in membranes, few studies have considered their effects on molecular oxygen permeability. Published experimental work with rhodopsin and bacteriorhodopsin has led to the hypothesis that integral proteins lessen membrane oxygen permeability, as well as the permeability of the lipid region. The current work uses atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to test the influence of an ungated potassium channel protein on the oxygen permeability of palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC) bilayers with and without cholesterol. Consistent with experiment, whole-membrane oxygen permeability is cut in half upon adding 30 wt% potassium channel protein to POPC, and the apparent permeability of the lipid portion of the membrane decreases by 40%. Unexpectedly, oxygen is found to interact directly with the protein surface, accompanied by a 40% reduction of the apparent whole-membrane diffusion coefficient. Similar effects are seen in systems combining the potassium channel with 1:1 POPC/cholesterol, but the magnitude of permeability reduction is smaller by ~30%. Overall, the simulations indicate that integral proteins can reduce oxygen permeability by altering the diffusional path and the local diffusivity. This effect may be especially important in the protein-dense membranes of mitochondria.
