Atomic level fluxional behavior and activity of CeO₂-supported Pt catalysts for CO oxidation.

ABSTRACT: Reducible oxides are widely used catalyst supports that can increase oxidation reaction rates by transferring lattice oxygen at the metal-support interface. There are many outstanding questions regarding the atomic-scale dynamic meta-stability (i.e., fluxional behavior) of the interface during catalysis. Here, we employ aberration-corrected operando electron microscopy to visualize the structural dynamics occurring at and near Pt/CeO₂ interfaces during CO oxidation. We show that the catalytic turnover frequency correlates with fluxional behavior that (a) destabilizes the supported Pt particle, (b) marks an enhanced rate of oxygen vacancy creation and annihilation, and (c) leads to increased strain and reduction in the CeO₂ support surface. Overall, the results implicate the interfacial Pt-O-Ce bonds anchoring the Pt to the support as being involved also in the catalytically-driven oxygen transfer process, and they suggest that oxygen reduction takes place on the highly reduced CeO₂ surface before migrating to the interfacial perimeter for reaction with CO.

Metal Phosphate-Supported Pt Catalysts for CO Oxidation.

Project description:Oxides (such as SiO?, TiO?, ZrO?, Al?O?, Fe?O?, CeO?) have often been used to prepare supported Pt catalysts for CO oxidation and other reactions, whereas metal phosphate-supported Pt catalysts for CO oxidation were rarely reported. Metal phosphates are a family of metal salts with high thermal stability and acid-base properties. Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO?)?(OH)?, denoted as Ca-P-O here) also has rich hydroxyls. Here we report a series of metal phosphate-supported Pt (Pt/M-P-O, M = Mg, Al, Ca, Fe, Co, Zn, La) catalysts for CO oxidation. Pt/Ca-P-O shows the highest activity. Relevant characterization was conducted using N? adsorption-desorption, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) atomic emission spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), CO? temperature-programmed desorption (CO?-TPD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and H? temperature-programmed reduction (H?-TPR). This work furnishes a new catalyst system for CO oxidation and other possible reactions.

Catalytic Oxidation of n-Decane, n-Hexane, and Propane over Pt/CeO2 Catalysts.

Project description:Pt species with different chemical states and structures were supported on CeO2 by solution reduction (Pt/CeO2-SR) and wet impregnation (Pt/CeO2-WI) and investigated in catalytic oxidation of n-decane (C10H22), n-hexane (C6H14), and propane (C3H8). Characterization by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, H2-temperature programming reduction, and oxygen temperature-programmed desorption showed that Pt0 and Pt2+ existed on Pt nanoparticles of the Pt/CeO2-SR sample, which promoted redox, oxygen adsorption, and activation. On Pt/CeO2-WI, Pt species were highly dispersed on CeO2 as the Pt-O-Ce structure, in which surface oxygen decreased significantly. The Pt/CeO2-SR catalyst presents high activity in oxidation of C10H22 with a rate of 0.164 μmol min-1 m-2 at 150 °C. The rate increased with oxygen concentration. Moreover, Pt/CeO2-SR presents high stability on feed stream containing 1000 ppm C10H22 at gas hour space velocity = 30,000 h-1 as low as 150 °C for 1800 min. The low activity and stability of Pt/CeO2-WI were probably related to its low availability of surface oxygen. In situ Fourier transform infrared results showed that the adsorption of alkane occurred through the interaction with Ce-OH. The adsorption of C6H14 and C3H8 was much weaker than that of C10H22, which resulted in the decrease in activity for C6H14 and C3H8 oxidation of Pt/CeO2 catalysts.

Activation of subnanometric Pt on Cu-modified CeO2 via redox-coupled atomic layer deposition for CO oxidation.

Project description:Improving the low-temperature activity (below 100?°C) and noble-metal efficiency of automotive exhaust catalysts has been a continuous effort to eliminate cold-start emissions, yet great challenges remain. Here we report a strategy to activate the low-temperature performance of Pt catalysts on Cu-modified CeO2 supports based on redox-coupled atomic layer deposition. The interfacial reducibility and structure of composite catalysts have been precisely tuned by oxide doping and accurate control of Pt size. Cu-modified CeO2-supported Pt sub-nanoclusters demonstrate a remarkable performance with an onset of CO oxidation reactivity below room temperature, which is one order of magnitude more active than atomically-dispersed Pt catalysts. The Cu-O-Ce site with activated lattice oxygen anchors deposited Pt sub-nanoclusters, leading to a moderate CO adsorption strength at the interface that facilitates the low-temperature CO oxidation performance.

Oxidation of Dichloromethane over Au, Pt, and Pt-Au Containing Catalysts Supported on ?-Al2O3 and CeO2-Al2O3.

Project description:Au, Pt, and Pt-Au catalysts supported on Al2O3 and CeO2-Al2O3 were studied in the oxidation of dichloromethane (DCM, CH2Cl2). High DCM oxidation activities and HCl selectivities were seen with all the catalysts. With the addition of Au, remarkably lower light-off temperatures were observed as they were reduced by 70 and 85 degrees with the Al2O3-supported and by 35 and 40 degrees with the CeO2-Al2O3-supported catalysts. Excellent HCl selectivities close to 100% were achieved with the Au/Al2O3 and Pt-Au/Al2O3 catalysts. The addition of ceria on alumina decreased the total acidity of these catalysts, resulting in lower performance. The 100-h stability test showed that the Pt-Au/Al2O3 catalyst was active and durable, but the selectivity towards the total oxidation products needs improvement. The results suggest that, with the Au-containing Al2O3-supported catalysts, DCM decomposition mainly occurs via direct DCM hydrolysis into formaldehyde and HCl followed by the oxidation of formaldehyde into CO and CO2.

Understanding the Impact of Defects on Catalytic CO Oxidation of LaFeO3-Supported Rh, Pd, and Pt Single-Atom Catalysts.

Project description:Understanding the intrinsic catalytic properties of perovskite materials can accelerate the development of highly active and abundant complex oxide catalysts. Here, we performed a first-principles density functional theory study combined with a microkinetics analysis to comprehensively investigate the influence of defects on catalytic CO oxidation of LaFeO3 catalysts containing single atoms of Rh, Pd, and Pt. La defects and subsurface O vacancies considerably affect the local electronic structure of these single atoms adsorbed at the surface or replacing Fe in the surface of the perovskite. As a consequence, not only the stability of the introduced single atoms is enhanced but also the CO and O2 adsorption energies are modified. This also affects the barriers for CO oxidation. Uniquely, we find that the presence of La defects results in a much higher CO oxidation rate for the doped perovskite surface. A linear correlation between the activation barrier for CO oxidation and the surface O vacancy formation energy for these models is identified. Additionally, the presence of subsurface O vacancies only slightly promotes CO oxidation on the LaFeO3 surface with an adsorbed Rh atom. Our findings suggest that the introduction of La defects in LaFeO3-based environmental catalysts could be a promising strategy toward improved oxidation performance. The insights revealed herein guide the design of the perovskite-based three-way catalyst through compositional variation.

Structural Evolution of Bimetallic PtPd/CeO2 Methane Oxidation Catalysts Prepared by Dry Milling.

Project description:Bimetallic Pt-Pd catalysts supported on ceria have been prepared by mechanochemical synthesis and tested for lean methane oxidation in dry and wet atmosphere. Results show that the addition of platinum has a negative effect on transient light-off activity, but for Pd/Pt molar ratios between 1:1 and 8:1 an improvement during time-on-stream experiments in wet conditions is observed. The bimetallic samples undergo a complex restructuring during operation, starting from the alloying of Pt and Pd and resulting in the formation of unprecedented "mushroom-like" structures consisting of PdO bases with Pt heads as revealed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) analysis. On milled samples, these structures are well-defined and observed at the interface between palladium and ceria, whereas those on the impregnated catalyst appear less ordered and are located randomly on the surface of ceria and of large PdPt clusters. The milled catalyst prepared by first milling Pd metal and ceria followed by the addition of Pt shows better performances compared to a conventional impregnated sample and also to a sample obtained by inverting the Pd-Pt milling order. This has been ascribed to the intimate contact between Pd and CeO2 generated at the nanoscale during the milling process.

Relationship between hydrothermal temperatures and structural properties of CeO2 and enhanced catalytic activity of propene/toluene/CO oxidation by Au/CeO2 catalysts.

Project description:A simple hydrothermal synthesis of CeO2 was implemented to obtain a series of CeO2-supported gold (Au) catalysts, used for the total oxidation of propene/toluene/CO gas mixtures and the oxidation of CO. CeO2 preparation started from a cerium hydrogen carbonate precursor using a range of different hydrothermal temperatures (HT) from 120 to 180°C. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and H2-temperature-programmed reduction data indicated that CeO2 morphology varied with the HT, and was composed of the more active (200) surface. Following Au deposition onto the CeO2 support, this active crystal plane resulted in the most widely dispersed Au nanoparticles on the CeO2 support. The catalytic performance of the CeO2-supported Au catalysts for both oxidation reactions improved as the reducibility increased to generate lattice oxygen vacancies and the number of adsorbed peroxide species on the CeO2 support increased due to addition of Au. The Au catalyst on the CeO2 support prepared at 120°C was the most active in both propene/toluene/CO oxidation and independent CO oxidation.

The Dynamic Structure of Au38(SR)24 Nanoclusters Supported on CeO2 upon Pretreatment and CO Oxidation.

Project description:Atomically precise thiolate protected Au nanoclusters Au38(SC2H4Ph)24 on CeO2 were used for in-situ (operando) extended X-ray absorption fine structure/diffuse reflectance infrared fourier transform spectroscopy and ex situ scanning transmission electron microscopy-high-angle annular dark-field imaging/X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies monitoring cluster structure changes induced by activation (ligand removal) and CO oxidation. Oxidative pretreatment at 150 °C "collapsed" the clusters' ligand shell, oxidizing the hydrocarbon backbone, but the S remaining on Au acted as poison. Oxidation at 250 °C produced bare Au surfaces by removing S which migrated to the support (forming Au+-S), leading to highest activity. During reaction, structural changes occurred via CO-induced Au and O-induced S migration to the support. The results reveal the dynamics of nanocluster catalysts and the underlying cluster chemistry.

Bifunctional CO oxidation over Mn-mullite anchored Pt sub-nanoclusters via atomic layer deposition.

Project description:CO oxidation is a widely used model system for understanding fundamental aspects of heterogeneous catalysis. While platinum (Pt) continues to be a reference material for CO oxidation catalysis, poisoning of Pt catalysts presents a critical issue that blocks reaction sites and impedes subsequent reaction steps. Fabrication of CO poison-free Pt catalysts remains a great challenge due to its CO-philic nature. Herein, we report a Pt based catalyst to effectively tackle CO poisoning by tightly anchoring Pt sub-nanoclusters onto Mn-mullite oxide (SmMn2O5) via atomic layer deposition. Superior CO oxidation activity has been observed with a significantly lowered light-off temperature and apparent activation energy. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy analysis, oxygen isotope experiments and density functional theory calculations confirm that the low-temperature activity originates from active oxygen atom sources at the bifunctional interface structure.

Thermal control of the defunctionalization of supported Au25(glutathione)18 catalysts for benzyl alcohol oxidation.

Project description:Au25(SG)18 (SG - glutathione) clusters deposited on ZrO2 nanoparticles have been used as a catalyst for benzyl alcohol oxidation. Calcination was performed at different temperatures to study the ligand and particle size effect on the catalytic activity. In contrast to most gold nanoclusters which have to be completely defunctionalized for maximum catalytic activity, the partially defunctionalized Au25(SG)18@ZrO2 catalyst, thermally treated at 300 °C, exhibits full conversion of benzyl alcohol within 15 h under atmospheric pressure with 94% selectivity towards benzaldehyde.
