Electron penetration triggering interface activity of Pt-graphene for CO oxidation at room temperature.

ABSTRACT: Achieving CO oxidation at room temperature is significant for gas purification but still challenging nowadays. Pt promoted by 3d transition metals (TMs) is a promising candidate for this reaction, but TMs are prone to be deeply oxidized in an oxygen-rich atmosphere, leading to low activity. Herein we report a unique structure design of graphene-isolated Pt from CoNi nanoparticles (PtǀCoNi) for efficiently catalytic CO oxidation in an oxygen-rich atmosphere. CoNi alloy is protected by ultrathin graphene shell from oxidation and therefore modulates the electronic property of Pt-graphene interface via electron penetration effect. This catalyst can achieve near 100% CO conversion at room temperature, while there are limited conversions over Pt/C and Pt/CoNiO_x catalysts. Experiments and theoretical calculations indicate that CO will saturate Pt sites, but O₂ can adsorb at the Pt-graphene interface without competing with CO, which facilitate the O₂ activation and the subsequent surface reaction. This graphene-isolated system is distinct from the classical metal-metal oxide interface for catalysis, and it provides a new thought for the design of heterogeneous catalysts.

Hierarchically macro-mesoporous Pt/?-Al2O3 composite microspheres for efficient formaldehyde oxidation at room temperature.

Project description:Room temperature catalytic oxidation by noble metals is considered to be the most promising strategy for the removal of HCHO, which is one of the major indoor air pollutants. Hierarchically macro-mesoporous structured Pt/?-Al2O3 hollow spheres with open and accessible pores were synthesized and used for catalytic oxidative decomposition of HCHO at room temperature. The prepared composite hollow spheres showed higher catalytic activity than the conventional nanoparticle supports, which is mainly due to their hierarchical macro-mesoporous structure facilitating diffusion of reactants and products, and the high dispersion of accessible catalytic Pt nanoparticles. This work may contribute to the development of hierarchically structured materials and high-performance catalysts for indoor air purification and related catalytic processes.

Pt/CeO2 and Pt/CeSnOx Catalysts for Low-Temperature CO Oxidation Prepared by Plasma-Arc Technique.

Project description:We applied a method of plasma arc synthesis to study effects of modification of the fluorite phase of ceria by tin ions. By sputtering active components (Pt, Ce, Sn) together with carbon from a graphite electrode in a helium ambient we prepared samples of complex highly defective composite PtCeC and PtCeSnC oxide particles stabilized in a matrix of carbon. Subsequent high-temperature annealing of the samples in oxygen removes the carbon matrix and causes the formation of active catalysts Pt/CeOx and Pt/CeSnOx for CO oxidation. In the presence of Sn, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) show formation of a mixed phase CeSnOx and stabilization of more dispersed species with a fluorite-type structure. These factors are essential for the observed high activity and thermic stability of the catalyst modified by Sn. X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) reveals the presence of both Pt2+ and Pt4+ ions in the catalyst Pt/CeOx, whereas only the state Pt2+ of platinum could be detected in the Sn-modified catalyst Pt/CeSnOx. Insertion of Sn ions into the Pt/CeOx lattice destabilizes/reduces Pt4+ cations in the Pt/CeSnOx catalyst and induces formation of strikingly high concentration (up to 50% at.) of lattice Ce3+ ions. Our DFT calculations corroborate destabilization of Pt4+ ions by incorporation of cationic Sn in Pt/CeOx. The presented results show that modification of the fluorite lattice of ceria by tin induces substantial amount of mobile reactive oxygen partly due to affecting geometric parameters of ceria by tin ions.

Room-temperature carbon monoxide oxidation by oxygen over Pt/Al2O3 mediated by reactive platinum carbonates.

Project description:Room-temperature carbon monoxide oxidation, important for maintaining clean air among other applications, is challenging even after a century of research into carbon monoxide oxidation. Here we report using time-resolved diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy, X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and mass spectrometry a platinum carbonate-mediated mechanism for the room-temperature oxidation of carbon monoxide. By applying a periodic reduction-oxidation mode of operation we further show that this behaviour is reversible and can be formed into a catalytic cycle that requires molecular communication between metallic platinum nanoparticles and highly dispersed oxidic platinum centres. A new possibility for the attainment of low-temperature oxidation of carbon monoxide is therefore demonstrated.

Large room temperature spin-to-charge conversion signals in a few-layer graphene/Pt lateral heterostructure.

Project description:Electrical generation and detection of pure spin currents without the need of magnetic materials are key elements for the realization of full electrically controlled spintronic devices. In this framework, achieving a large spin-to-charge conversion signal is crucial, as considerable outputs are needed for plausible applications. Unfortunately, the values obtained so far have been rather low. Here we exploit the spin Hall effect by using Pt, a non-magnetic metal with strong spin-orbit coupling, to generate and detect pure spin currents in a few-layer graphene channel. Furthermore, the outstanding properties of graphene, with long-distance spin transport and higher electrical resistivity than metals, allow us to achieve in our graphene/Pt lateral heterostructures the largest spin-to-charge output voltage at room temperature reported so far in the literature. Our approach opens up exciting opportunities towards the implementation of spin-orbit-based logic circuits and all electrical control of spin information without magnetic field.Spintronic devices with full electrical control rely on electrical generation and detection of spin currents in the absence of magnetic materials. Here, the authors use Pt, a non-magnetic metal, to generate and detect pure spin currents in a few-layer graphene channel, achieving a remarkable spin-to-charge voltage signal at room temperature.

Gold oxide formation on Au(111) under CO oxidation conditions at room temperature.

Project description:Although gold-based catalysts are promising candidates for selective low-temperature CO oxidation, the reaction mechanism is not fully understood. On a Au(111) model catalyst, we observe the formation of gold oxide islands under exposure to atmospheric pressures of oxygen or CO oxidation reaction conditions in an in situ scanning tunneling microscope. The gold oxide formation is interpreted in line with the water-enabled dissociation of O2 on the step edges of Au(111). Contaminants on the gold surface can strongly promote the gold oxide formation even on the terraces. On the other hand, TiO2 nanoparticles on the Au(111) do not show any influence on the formation of the gold oxide and are thus not providing a significant amount of atomic oxygen to the gold at room temperature. Overall, the presence of gold oxide is likely under industrial conditions.

Hierarchically Assembled Gigantic Fe/Co Cyanometallate Clusters Exhibiting Electron Transfer Behavior Above Room Temperature.

Project description:The construction of large and complex supramolecular architectures through self-assembly is at the forefront of contemporary coordination chemistry. Notwithstanding great success in various systems using anionic bridges (e.g., O2- or S2-) or organic ligands (e.g., pyridine or carboxylate ligands), the assembly of large cyanide-bridged clusters with increasing nuclearity remains a formidable synthetic challenge. In this study, it is achieved in preparing two heterometallic cyanometallate clusters with unprecedented complexity, [Fe20Co20] (1) and [Fe12Co15] (2), by creating the "flexibility" through a versatile ligand of bis((1H-imidazol-4-yl)methylene)hydrazine (H2L) and low-coordinate cobalt. Complex 1 features a super-square array of four cyanide-bridged [Fe4Co4] cube subunits as the corners that are interconnected by four additional [FeCo] units, resulting in a torus-shaped architecture. Complex 2 contains a lantern-like core-shell cluster with a triple-helix kernel of [Co3L3] enveloped by a [Fe12Co12] shell. The combined structure analysis and mass spectrometry study reveal a hierarchical assembly mechanism, which sheds new light on constructing cyanometallate nanoclusters with atomic precision. Moreover, complex 1 undergoes a thermally induced electron-transfer-coupled spin transition (ETCST) between the diamagnetic {FeII LS(µ-CN)CoIII LS} and paramagnetic {FeIII LS(µ-CN)CoII HS} configurations (LS = low spin, HS = high spin) above room temperature, representing the largest molecule displaying electron transfer and spin transition characteristic.

Voltage-induced penetration effect in liquid metals at room temperature.

Project description:Room-temperature liquid metal is discovered to be capable of penetrating through macro- and microporous materials by applying a voltage. The liquid metal penetration effects are demonstrated in various porous materials such as tissue paper, thick and fine sponges, fabrics, and meshes. The underlying mechanism is that the high surface tension of liquid metal can be significantly reduced to near-zero due to the voltage-induced oxidation of the liquid metal surface in a solution. It is the extremely low surface tension and gravity that cause the liquid metal to superwet the solid surface, leading to the penetration phenomena. These findings offer new opportunities for novel microfluidic applications and could promote further discovery of more exotic fluid states of liquid metals.

Room-temperature magnetic ordering in functionalized graphene.

Project description:Despite theoretical predictions, the question of room-temperature magnetic order in graphene must be conclusively resolved before graphene can fully achieve its potential as a spintronic medium. Through scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and point I-V measurements, the current study reveals that unlike pristine samples, graphene nanostructures, when functionalized with aryl radicals, can sustain magnetic order. STM images show 1-D and 2-D periodic super-lattices originating from the functionalization of a single sub-lattice of the bipartite graphene structure. Field-dependent super-lattices in 3-nm wide "zigzag" nanoribbons indicate local moments with parallel and anti-parallel ordering along and across the edges, respectively. Anti-parallel ordering is observed in 2-D segments with sizes of over 20 nm. The field dependence of STM images and point I-V curves indicates a spin polarized local density of states (LDOS), an out-of-plane anisotropy field of less than 10 Oe, and an exchange coupling field of 100 Oe at room temperature.

Promotion of Pt/CeO<sub>2</sub> catalyst by hydrogen treatment for low-temperature CO oxidation.

Project description:Low temperature CO oxidation reaction is known to be facilitated over platinum supported on a reducible cerium oxide. Pt species act as binding sites for reactant CO molecules, and oxygen vacancies on surface of cerium oxide atomically activate the reactant O2 molecules. However, the impacts of size of Pt species and concentration of oxygen vacancy at the surface of cerium oxide on the CO oxidation reaction have not been clearly distinguished, thereby various diverse approaches have been suggested to date. Here using the co-precipitation method we have prepared pure ceria support and infiltrated it with Pt solution to obtain 0.5 atomic% Pt supported on cerium oxide catalyst, and then systematically varied the size of Pt from single atom to ∼1.7 nm sized nanoparticles and oxygen vacancy concentration at surface of cerium oxide by controlling the heat-treatment conditions, which are temperature and oxygen partial pressure. It is found that Pt nanoparticles in range of 1-1.7 nm achieve 100% of CO oxidation reaction at ∼100 °C lower temperature compared to Pt single atom owing to the facile adsorption of CO but weaker binding strength between Pt and CO molecules, and the oxygen vacancy in the vicinity of Pt accelerates CO oxidation below 150 °C. Based on this understanding, we show that a simple hydrogen reduction at 550 °C for the single atom Pt supported on CeO2 catalyst induces the formation of highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles with size of 1.7 ± 0.2 nm and the higher concentration of surface oxygen vacancies simultaneously, enabling 100% conversion from CO to CO2 at 200 °C as well as 16% conversion even at 150 °C owing to the synergistic effects of Pt nanoparticles and oxygen vacancies.

One-Step Hydrothermal/Solvothermal Preparation of Pt/TiO<sub>2</sub>: An Efficient Catalyst for Biobutanol Oxidation at Room Temperature.

Project description:The selective oxidation of biobutanol to prepare butyric acid is an important conversion process, but the preparation of low-temperature and efficient catalysts for butanol oxidation is currently a bottleneck problem. In this work, we prepared Pt-TiO2 catalysts with different Pt particle sizes using a simple one-step hydrothermal/solvothermal method. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction results showed that the average size of the Pt particles ranged from 1.1 nm to 8.7 nm. Among them, Pt-TiO2 with an average particle size of 3.6 nm exhibited the best catalytic performance for biobutanol. It was capable of almost completely converting butanol, even at room temperature (30 °C), with a 98.9% biobutanol conversion, 98.4% butyric acid selectivity, and a turnover frequency (TOF) of 36 h-1. Increasing the reaction temperature to 80 and 90 °C, the corresponding TOFs increased rapidly to 355 and 619 h-1. The relationship between the electronic structure of Pt and its oxidative performance suggests that the synergistic effect of the dual sites, Pt0 and Pt2+, could be the primary factor contributing to its elevated reactivity.
