The catalysts are prepared by doping MgO- and CeO2-based solids with oxides from alkali (Li2O), alkaline earth (CaO), and transition metal groups (WO3 or MnO). The presence of the peroxide (O2-2) active sites on the Li2O2, revealed by Raman spectroscopy, may be the key factor in the enhanced performance of some of the Li2O/MgO catalysts. The high reducibility of the CeO2 catalyst, an important factor in the CO2-OCM catalyst activity, may be enhanced by the presence of manganese oxide species. The manganese oxide species increases oxygen mobility and oxygen vacancies in the CeO2 catalyst. Raman and Fourier Transform Infra Red (FT-IR) spectroscopies revealed the presence of lattice vibrations of metal-oxygen bondings and active sites in which the peaks corresponding to the bulk crystalline structures of Li2O, CaO, WO3 and MnO are detected. The performance of 5%MnO/15%CaO/CeO2 catalyst is the most potential among the CeO2-based catalysts, although lower than the 2%Li2O/MgO catalyst. The 2%Li2O/MgO catalyst showed the most promising C2+ hydrocarbons selectivity and yield at 98.0% and 5.7%, respectively.展开更多

High thermal stability of the textural properties is one of the most important requirements for practical application since temperatures up to 1273 K are easily experienced by these materials under real working conditions. In the present paper, we investigated how hydrothermal treatments applied to cakes of doped and undoped ZrO2-rich CeO2-ZrO2 precursors might improve the thermal stability of the final CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution. A rationale was developed that allowed to correlate the morphology of the hydrothermaUy treated cake with the thermal stability at 1273 K of the final product, which did not depend on the composition of the mixed oxides.展开更多

Acco...The structure and catalytic desulfurization characteristics of CeO2-TiO2 mixed oxides were investigated by means ofX-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and catalytic activity tests. According to the results, a CeO2-TiO2solid solution is formed when the mole ratio of cerium to titanium n(Ce):n(Ti) is 5:5 or greater, and the most suitable n(Ce):n(Ti) isdetermined as 7:3, over which the conversion rate of SO2 and the yield of sulfur at 500℃ reach 93% and 99%, respectively.According to the activity testing curve, Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 (n(Ce):n(Ti)=7:3) without any pretreatment can be gradually activated by reagentgas after about 10 min, and reaches a steady activation status 60 min later. The XPS results of Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 after different time ofSO2+CO reaction show that CeO2 is the active component that offers the redox couple Ce4+/Ce3+ and the labile oxygen vacancies, andTiO2 only functions as a catalyst structure stabilizer during the catalytic reaction process. After 48 h of catalytic reaction at 500℃,Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 still maintains a stable structure without being vulcanized, demonstrating its good anti-sulfur poisoning performance.展开更多

Samples were prepared from commercial Gd2O3-, Sm2O3- and Y2O3-doped CeO2 powders by calcination at different temperatures ranging between 400°C and 900°C and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and BET specific surface area. The reducibility of the samples was analyzed by temperature-programmed reduction and in situ dispersive X-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques. Our results clearly demonstrate that samples treated at lower temperatures, of smallest average crystallite size and highest specific surface areas, exhibit the best performance, while Gd2O3-doped ceria materials display higher reducibility than Sm2O3- and Y2O3-doped CeO2.展开更多

The Mn3+, Zr4+, Ti4+and Pb4+cations are incorporated into the lattice of tetragonal rutile SnO2 to form a solid solution structure. As a consequence, the surface area and thermal stability of the catalysts are improved. Moreover, the oxygen species of the modified catalysts become easier to be reduced. Therefore, the oxidation activity over the catalysts was improved, except for the one modified by Pb oxide. Manganese oxide demonstrates the best promotional effects for SnO2. Using an X‐ray diffraction extrapolation method, the lattice capacity of SnO2 for Mn2O3 was 0.135 g Mn2O3/g SnO2, which indicates that to form stable solid solution, only 21%Sn4+cations in the lattice can be maximally replaced by Mn3+. If the amount of Mn3+cations is over the capacity, Mn2O3 will be formed, which is not favorable for the activity of the catalysts. The Sn rich samples with only Sn‐Mn solid solution phase show higher activity than the ones with excess Mn2O3 species.展开更多

The partially reduced oxygen species O2, O , O (O<&<1 ) and even the lattice oxygen ion O2-can be detected on the surface of O2-pretreated La2O3-based catalysts. At lower temperatures (< 573 K) it is peroxide species O- or O- that is more essential for the coupling of methane,while at higher temperature. the superoxide O2 and lattice oxygen species O2-are rather important. It is easier for fluoride-containing La2O3-based catalysts to induce the oxygen species with fewer negative charges and the basicity of the cat- alyst surface is weakened , so that the C2 selectivity for OCM reaction is improved.展开更多

CeO2-MOx solid solutions could be formed with M cations doping into CeO2 lattice, while NiO and Co3O4 phases were detected on the surface of CeO2-NiO and CeO2-Co3O4 by Raman spectroscopy. The presence of M in CeO2 could obviously promote its catalytic activity for CH4 catalytic combustion and CO oxidation. Among the prepared samples, CeO2-CuO exhibited the best performance for CO oxidatio...展开更多

The catalyst samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The electrochemical properties were measured by a three electrode system on electrochemical workstation(IVIUM). The results showed that the presence of CeO_2-ZrO_2 might be associated with the presence of Pt, which indicated that possibly there was synergistic effect between CeO_2-ZrO_2 and Pt nanoparticles. The electrocatalytic activity and stability of Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr) for methanol and ethanol oxidation was better than that of Pt-CeO_2/C, which was attributed to that CeO_2-ZrO_2 composited oxides enhanced oxygen mobility and promoted oxygen storage capacity(OSC). Furthermore, the best performance was found when the molar ratio of CeO_2 to ZrO_2 was 2:1 for the oxidation of methanol and ethanol. The forward peak current density of Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr, Ce:Zr=2:1) towards the methanol electrooxidation was about 3.8 times that of Pt-CeO_2/C. Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr) appeared to be a promising and less expensive methanol oxidation anode catalyst.展开更多

The catalytic properties and characterization of CeO2, CuO/CeO2 and Cu/CeO2 catalysts were examined by means of a microreactor-GC system, HRTEM, XRD, TPR and XPS techniques. The results show that CuO has not catalytic activity and the activity of CeO2 is quite low for CO oxidation. However, the catalytic activity of CuO/CeO2 and Cu/ CeO2 catalysts increases significantly. Furthermore, the activity of CuO/CeO2 is higher than that of Cu/CeO2 catalysts.展开更多

The physicoch...A modified CuO/CeO2 catalyst was prepared by surfactant-assisted impregnation method and showed better catalytic activity for low temperature CO oxidation than that from conventional impregnation method. The physicochemical properties of different CuO/CeO2 catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetrie and differential scanning calorimetric measurements (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorpti0n-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), tern- perature-programmed desorption of 02 (O2-TPD), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The re- sults suggested that the addition of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) into the impregnation solution could improve the dispersion of CuO species, which could facilitate Cu2+ incorporating into CeO2 lattice and strengthened the synergistic effects between CuO and CeO2, making the lattice oxygen more active, and eventually resulting in enhanced activity for CO oxidation.展开更多

The effect of preparation condition of support on the catalyst activity was investigated. The catalytic combustion of HCHO was considered as the probe reaction for comparing the catalyst activity. The BET, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and reduction (TPR) were carried out to analyze the influence factor on the catalysts activity. The results showed that the addition of dispersant and use of microwave in the support preparation procedure could be beneficial for enhancing the interaction of supports and gold species and thus improved the catalytic activity. The total conversion temperature for HCHO was 146 ℃ over AC400. With the modification during supports preparation process, the catalytic activity increased with total conversion temperature decreasing to 98 ℃. The results of XPS indicated that Au^0 and Au^+1 species coexisted in these catalysts and the activity of catalyst correlated with Au^+1/Au^0 ratio. Temperature-programmed reduction results demonstrated that the reduction peak appeared between 100-170 ℃ with the inducing of gold. The dependence of activity on the reduction peak temperature implied that ionic gold was catalytic activity component for HCHO oxidation.展开更多

The influence of the solution concentration and the role of the additive were studied and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and temperature programmed reduction (TPR) techniques. The results showed that 200 g/L of the active solution was the most appropriate concentration for preparing the monolithic catalysts, and the additives of praseodymium and lanthanum improved the adhesion stability of the monolithic catalysts. The addition of Pr did not greatly affect the catalytic performance, but CO could not be totally converted into CO2 after the addition of La into the CuO-CeO2/Al2O3/FeCrAl catalysts.展开更多

摘要Some active metal oxides(Al2O3,TiO2,and Cr2O3)were selected as dopants to the Al2O3-based ceramic shells for investment casting of K417G superalloy.The effects of dopant types and contents(0,2,5,and 8 wt.%)on the wettability and interfacial reaction between the alloy and shell were investigated by a sessile-drop experiment.The results show that increasing the Al2O3 doping contents(0−8 wt.%)reduces the porosity(21.74%−10.08%)and roughness(3.22−1.34μm)of the shell surface.The increase in Cr2O3 dopant content(2−8 wt.%)further exacerbates the interfacial reaction,leading to an increase in the thickness of the reaction layer(2.6−3.1μm)and a decrease in the wetting angle(93.9°−91.0°).The addition of Al2O3 and TiO2 dopants leads to the formation of Al2TiO5 composite oxides in the reaction products,which effectively inhibits the interfacial reaction.The increase in TiO2 dopant contents(0−8 wt.%)further promotes the formation of Al2TiO5,which decreases the thickness of the interfacial reaction layer(3.9−1.2μm)and increases the wetting angle(95.0°−103.8°).The introduced dopants enhance the packing density of the shell surface,while simultaneously suppress the diffusion of active metal elements from the alloy matrix to the interface.

摘要The catalyst screening tests for carbon dioxide oxidative coupling of methane (CO2-OCM) have been investigated over ternary and binary metal oxide catalysts.

The high reducibility of the CeO2 catalyst, an important factor in the CO2-OCM catalyst activity, may be enhanced by the presence of manganese oxide species. The manganese oxide species increases oxygen mobility and oxygen vacancies in the CeO2 catalyst. Raman and Fourier Transform Infra Red (FT-IR) spectroscopies revealed the presence of lattice vibrations of metal-oxygen bondings and active sites in which the peaks corresponding to the bulk crystalline structures of Li2O, CaO, WO3 and MnO are detected. The performance of 5%MnO/15%CaO/CeO2 catalyst is the most potential among the CeO2-based catalysts, although lower than the 2%Li2O/MgO catalyst. The 2%Li2O/MgO catalyst showed the most promising C2+ hydrocarbons selectivity and yield at 98.0% and 5.7%, respectively.

摘要A series of SnO2‐based catalysts modified by Mn, Zr, Ti and Pb oxides with a Sn/M (M=Mn, Zr, Ti and Pb) molar ratio of 9/1 were prepared by a co‐precipitation method and used for CH4 and CO oxidation. The Mn3+, Zr4+, Ti4+and Pb4+cations are incorporated into the lattice of tetragonal rutile SnO2 to form a solid solution structure. As a consequence, the surface area and thermal stability of the catalysts are improved. Moreover, the oxygen species of the modified catalysts become easier to be reduced. Therefore, the oxidation activity over the catalysts was improved, except for the one modified by Pb oxide. Manganese oxide demonstrates the best promotional effects for SnO2. Using an X‐ray diffraction extrapolation method, the lattice capacity of SnO2 for Mn2O3 was 0.135 g Mn2O3/g SnO2, which indicates that to form stable solid solution, only 21%Sn4+cations in the lattice can be maximally replaced by Mn3+. If the amount of Mn3+cations is over the capacity, Mn2O3 will be formed, which is not favorable for the activity of the catalysts. The Sn rich samples with only Sn‐Mn solid solution phase show higher activity than the ones with excess Mn2O3 species.

The partially reduced oxygen species O2, O , O (O<&<1 ) and even the lattice oxygen ion O2-can be detected on the surface of O2-pretreated La2O3-based catalysts. At lower temperatures (< 573 K) it is peroxide species O- or O- that is more essential for the coupling of methane,while at higher temperature. the superoxide O2 and lattice oxygen species O2-are rather important. It is easier for fluoride-containing La2O3-based catalysts to induce the oxygen species with fewer negative charges and the basicity of the cat- alyst surface is weakened , so that the C2 selectivity for OCM reaction is improved.

摘要The interaction between Pt and its various supports can regulate the intrinsic electronic structure of Pt particles and their catalytic performance.Herein,Pt/CeO2 and Pt/SiC catalysts were successfully prepared via a facile Pt colloidal particle deposition method,and their catalytic performance in CO oxidation was investigated.XRD,TEM,XPS and H2-TPR were used to identify the states of Pt particles on the support surface,as well as their effect on the performance of the catalysts.Formation of the Pt-O-Ce interaction is one of the factors controlling catalyst activity.Under the oxidative treatment at low temperature,the Pt-O-Ce interaction plays an important role in improving the catalytic activity.After calcining at high temperature,enhanced Pt-O-Ce interaction results in the absence of metallic Pt0 on the support surface,as evidenced by the appearance of Pt2+species.It is consistent with the XPS data of Pt/CeO2,and is the main reason behind the deactivation of the catalyst.By contrast,either no interaction is formed between Pt and SiC or Pt nanoparticles remain in the metallic Pt0 state on the SiC surface even after aging at 800℃in an oxidizing atmosphere.Thus,the Pt/SiC shows better thermal stability than Pt/CeO2.The interaction between Pt and the active support may be concluded to be essential for CO oxidation at low temperature,but strong interactions may induce serious deactivation of catalytic activity.

摘要CeO2-MOx (M=Cu, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) mixed oxide catalysts were prepared by a citric acid complexation-combustion method. CeO2-MOx solid solutions could be formed with M cations doping into CeO2 lattice, while NiO and Co3O4 phases were detected on the surface of CeO2-NiO and CeO2-Co3O4 by Raman spectroscopy. The presence of M in CeO2 could obviously promote its catalytic activity for CH4 catalytic combustion and CO oxidation. Among the prepared samples, CeO2-CuO exhibited the best performance for CO oxidatio...

摘要The electrocatalytic activity and stability of Pt/C catalyst modified by using CeO_2-ZrO_2 mixed oxides for the alcohols electrochemical oxidation as probes were investigated. The catalyst samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The electrochemical properties were measured by a three electrode system on electrochemical workstation(IVIUM). The results showed that the presence of CeO_2-ZrO_2 might be associated with the presence of Pt, which indicated that possibly there was synergistic effect between CeO_2-ZrO_2 and Pt nanoparticles. The electrocatalytic activity and stability of Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr) for methanol and ethanol oxidation was better than that of Pt-CeO_2/C, which was attributed to that CeO_2-ZrO_2 composited oxides enhanced oxygen mobility and promoted oxygen storage capacity(OSC). Furthermore, the best performance was found when the molar ratio of CeO_2 to ZrO_2 was 2:1 for the oxidation of methanol and ethanol. The forward peak current density of Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr, Ce:Zr=2:1) towards the methanol electrooxidation was about 3.8 times that of Pt-CeO_2/C. Pt-MO_x/C(M=Ce, Zr) appeared to be a promising and less expensive methanol oxidation anode catalyst.

摘要CeO2 was synthesized via sol-gel process and used as supporter to prepare CuO/CeO2, Cu/CeO2 catalysts by impregnation method. The catalytic properties and characterization of CeO2, CuO/CeO2 and Cu/CeO2 catalysts were examined by means of a microreactor-GC system, HRTEM, XRD, TPR and XPS techniques. The results show that CuO has not catalytic activity and the activity of CeO2 is quite low for CO oxidation. However, the catalytic activity of CuO/CeO2 and Cu/ CeO2 catalysts increases significantly. Furthermore, the activity of CuO/CeO2 is higher than that of Cu/CeO2 catalysts.

摘要A modified CuO/CeO2 catalyst was prepared by surfactant-assisted impregnation method and showed better catalytic activity for low temperature CO oxidation than that from conventional impregnation method. The physicochemical properties of different CuO/CeO2 catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetrie and differential scanning calorimetric measurements (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorpti0n-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), tern- perature-programmed desorption of 02 (O2-TPD), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The re- sults suggested that the addition of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) into the impregnation solution could improve the dispersion of CuO species, which could facilitate Cu2+ incorporating into CeO2 lattice and strengthened the synergistic effects between CuO and CeO2, making the lattice oxygen more active, and eventually resulting in enhanced activity for CO oxidation.

摘要Aqueous precipitation and deposition-precipitation method were used to prepare CeO2 supports and Au/CeO2 catalysts, respectively. The effect of preparation condition of support on the catalyst activity was investigated. The catalytic combustion of HCHO was considered as the probe reaction for comparing the catalyst activity. The BET, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and reduction (TPR) were carried out to analyze the influence factor on the catalysts activity. The results showed that the addition of dispersant and use of microwave in the support preparation procedure could be beneficial for enhancing the interaction of supports and gold species and thus improved the catalytic activity. The total conversion temperature for HCHO was 146 ℃ over AC400. With the modification during supports preparation process, the catalytic activity increased with total conversion temperature decreasing to 98 ℃. The results of XPS indicated that Au^0 and Au^+1 species coexisted in these catalysts and the activity of catalyst correlated with Au^+1/Au^0 ratio. Temperature-programmed reduction results demonstrated that the reduction peak appeared between 100-170 ℃ with the inducing of gold. The dependence of activity on the reduction peak temperature implied that ionic gold was catalytic activity component for HCHO oxidation.

摘要This work described in situ combustion synthesis method for depositing CuO-CeO2 on the FeCrAI honeycomb supports. The influence of the solution concentration and the role of the additive were studied and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and temperature programmed reduction (TPR) techniques. The results showed that 200 g/L of the active solution was the most appropriate concentration for preparing the monolithic catalysts, and the additives of praseodymium and lanthanum improved the adhesion stability of the monolithic catalysts. The addition of Pr did not greatly affect the catalytic performance, but CO could not be totally converted into CO2 after the addition of La into the CuO-CeO2/Al2O3/FeCrAl catalysts.

摘要CeO2-TiO2 catalysts prepared by different methods were investigated for deep oxidation of 1,2-dichloroethane(DCE),as a typical representative of the chlorinated volatile organic compounds(CVOCs).Characterization analysis reveals that CeO2-TiO2 catalysts prepared by sol-gel and coprecipitation methods exhibit higher specific area,CeO2 and TiO2 particles are highly dispersed into each other and the reducibility and mobility of active oxygen species are obviously promoted due to the strong interaction between the two catalysts CeO2 and TiO2,resulting in higher catalytic activity for DCE oxidation to and less chlorinated byproduct.The high calcination temperature would lead to the formation of a new monoclinic phase Ce0.3Ti0.7O2 and sintering,which is the main reason for the catalytic activity for DCE oxidation markedly decreases.

摘要Pt/Ni catalysts modified with CeO2 nanoparticles were prepared by simple composite electrodeposition of Ni and CeO2,and spontaneous Ni partial replacement by Pt processes.The as-prepared CeO2-modified Pt/Ni catalysts showed enhanced catalytic performance for ethanol electro-oxidation compared with pure Pt/Ni,and acetate species were proposed to be the main products of the oxidation when using these catalysts.The content of CeO2 in the as-prepared catalysts influenced their catalytic activity,with Pt/NiCe2(obtained from an electrolyte containing 100 mg/L CeO2 nanoparticles) exhibiting higher activity and relatively better stability in ethanol electro-oxidation.This was mainly due to the oxygen storage capacity of CeO2,the interaction between Pt and CeO2/Ni,and the relatively small contact and charge transfer resistances.The results of this work thus suggest that electrocatalysts with low price and high activity can be rationally designed and produced by a simple route for use in direct ethanol fuel cells.

摘要Nickel catalysts supported on CeO2-ZrO2-CeO2,ZrO2-Al2O3 and Al2O3 were prepared and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD),BET areas,H2 temperature-programmed reduction(H2-TPR),and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).Through the test of catalytic partial oxidation of methane(CPOM),Ni/CeO2-ZrO2-Al2O3 displayed the highest activity,which resulted from its largest BET area and best NiO dispersion.Furthermore,Ni/CeO2-ZrO2-Al2O3 maintained a long-time stability in CPOM,which was attributed to its best coking resistance among all the prepared catalysts.
