非晶态ZrO2镶嵌的超细CeO2催化HCl氧化

采用不同方法制备了铈锆复合氧化物催化剂用于催化HCl氧化反应。自发沉积策略制备的CeO₂@ZrO₂催化剂中,超细CeO₂纳米粒子均匀的镶嵌于非晶态ZrO₂中。CeO₂粒子显著的“尺寸效应”使得该催化剂具有更高的Ce³⁺和氧空位浓度,而较高的Ce³⁺和氧空位浓度使得催化剂具有优异的低温氧化还原性能和储释氧能力。催化性能测试表明,CeO₂@ZrO₂催化剂展现出最好的催化活性（1.90 g_Cl2·g_cat^-1·h^-1）,同时CeO₂粒子周围非晶态的ZrO₂阻碍CeO₂的高温烧结,提高了该催化剂的稳定性。

报道了一种HCl存在时温和条件下的乙烷氧化脱氢制乙烯催化转化新途径. 研究发现,在多种金属氧化物催化剂中,CeO₂呈现最佳乙烯生成的催化性能. 与纳米粒子相比,具有棒状和立方体状形貌的CeO₂纳米晶具有较高的乙烷转化率和乙烯选择性. 以MnO_x修饰CeO₂可进一步提高催化性能. 在8 wt% MnO_x-CeO₂催化剂上,723K反应2 h时乙烷转化率和乙烯选择性分别为94%和69%. 该催化剂性能稳定,反应100 h乙烯收率可保持在65%-70%. HCl的存在对乙烯的选择性生成起着至关重要的作用,一部分乙烯来自于氯乙烷的脱HCl反应.     

改进液相还原法制备的Pd/C催化剂对甲酸氧化的电能

用液相还原法制备炭载Pd(Pd/C)催化剂时,先用Na₂CO₃调节溶液pH值至8～9,然后加入还原剂还原PdCl₂,由于PdCl₂能与Na₂CO₃形成配合物,降低了得到的Pd粒子聚集倾向,使制得的Pd/C催化剂中Pd粒子的平均粒径和相对结晶度都较小,分别为3.57 nm和1.37。而没有加Na₂CO₃制得的Pd/C催化剂中Pd粒子的     

少量CeO2的添加对Pd/La-Al2O3密偶催化剂三效性能的影响

以La改性的Al₂O₃为载体,采用共吸附浸渍法制备了一系列不同CeO₂含量的单Pd密偶催化剂,并对其进行了表征. PdO_x和CeO₂之间的强相互作用改善了Pd⁰再氧化为PdO的能力,同时增强了反应条件下硝酸盐,亚硝酸盐和异氰酸盐在载体上的吸附. 因此适量CeO₂的添加明显改善了新鲜催化剂对HC和NO_x的催化性能,且当CeO₂添加量为2%时催化效果最佳. Pd-Ce界面上PdO_x和CeO₂间强相互作用也使得PdO_x物种在高温时仍能以小颗粒的形式分散在载体上,从而显著地提高催化剂的热稳定性. 经1100 ℃高温老化后,CeO₂ （2%-4%）的存在明显拓宽了HC和NO_x的操作窗口,这对于提高单Pd密偶催化剂在汽车尾气处理上的催化性能有重要意义.

利用ALD制备了TiO₂限域的Pd催化剂, 研究了限域空间内Pd纳米颗粒与TiO₂的界面作用对1,4-丁炔二醇(BYD)加氢性能的影响. 相比于管外负载型催化剂, 限域催化剂在催化1,4-丁炔二醇选择性加氢反应中体现出非常高的催化活性和1,4-丁烯二醇的选择性. HR-TEM、 EDX-Mapping、 XRD、 XPS和H₂-TPR表征说明, 限域体系中Pd-TiO₂的界面相互作用强于传统TiO₂表面负载型Pd催化剂, 这种强界面作用不仅能够提高BYD的加氢活性, 也可抑制半加氢产物1,4-丁烯二醇的异构化和深度加氢, 提高1,4-丁烯二醇的选择性, 而且限域结构也可阻止管内壁Pd纳米颗粒的脱落, 提高催化剂的稳定性.     

Au/CeO2中强金属-载体相互作用的形貌效应

以Au/CeO₂为研究对象,通过构建不同形貌的CeO₂载体来研究强金属-载体相互作用（SMSI）的形貌效应。分别以纳米立方块和纳米棒作为载体,通过高分辨（扫描）透射电子显微、光电子能谱、氢程序升温还原等一系列表征方法揭示了CeO₂纳米立方块表面更易发生质量传输并形成CeO_2-x包覆层。此包覆层大幅抑制了催化剂对小分子气体的吸附能力,并减少了催化活性位点的暴露,对探针反应（丁二烯选择性催化加氢）的催化活性影响显著。以上研究结果表明CeO₂纳米立方块比CeO₂纳米棒更易构建SMSI体系。

Enhanced electro-oxidation of formic acid by a PdPt bimetallic catalyst on a CeO2-modified carbon support

PdPt bimetallic catalysts that employ CeO2-modified carbon black as a support have been prepared using an organic colloidal method.PdPt/CeO2-C shows excellent performance toward the anodic oxidation of formic acid.The effects of varying both Pd to Pt ratio and CeO2 content have been investigated.The optimal Pd to Pt atomic ratio is 15,indicating that addition of small amounts of Pt can significantly enhance the activity of the catalyst.When the CeO2 content in the catalyst reaches as high as ～15 wt.%,the catalyst shows the maximum activity.Adding CeO2 not only enhances the catalytic activity of the material,but may also change the mechanism of its catalysis of the anodic oxidation of formic acid.Pd15Pt1/15CeO2-C exhibited 60% higher activity than Pd/C,and had a negative shift in onset potential of more than 0.1 V.Based on characterization by X-ray diffraction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,thermogravimetric analysis and transmission electron microscopy,the interactions between the components are revealed and discussed in detail.     

Controllable Synthesis of Nearly Monodisperse Spherical Aggregates of CeO2 Nanocrystals and Their Catalytic Activity for HCHO Oxidation

Herein, we report a facile surfactant‐assisted solvothermal synthetic method to prepare nearly monodisperse spherical CeO₂ nanocrystals. A good control of the size of CeO₂ nanocrystals in the range of 100–500 nm was achieved by simply varying the synthetic parameters such as reaction time, volume ratio of ethanol to water (R), molar ratio of PVP, and concentration of Ce(NO₃)₃?6 H₂O in solution. A possible mechanism for the growth of spherical CeO₂ nanocrystals is proposed. The obtained CeO₂ nanocrystals with a surface area of up to 47 m²g^?1 were then employed as a catalyst support. By loading Au‐Pd nanoparticles (about 3 wt. %) onto the CeO₂ support, an Au‐Pd/CeO₂ catalyst was prepared that exhibited high catalytic activity for HCHO oxidation. At the low temperature of 50 °C, the percentage of HCHO conversion was 100 %, suggesting potential applications in preferential oxidation and other catalytic reactions. These Au‐Pd/CeO₂ catalysts may also find applications in indoor formaldehyde decontamination and industrial catalysis. The facile solvothermal method can be extended to the preparation of other metal oxide nanocrystals and provides guidance for size‐ and morphology‐controlled synthesis.     

Hydrodeoxygenation of Vicinal OH Groups over Heterogeneous Rhenium Catalyst Promoted by Palladium and Ceria Support

Heterogeneous ReO_x–Pd/CeO₂ catalyst showed excellent performance for simultaneous hydrodeoxygenation of vicinal OH groups. High yield (>99 %), turnover frequency (300 h^?1), and turnover number (10 000) are achieved in the reaction of 1,4‐anhydroerythritol to tetrahydrofuran. This catalyst can be applied to sugar alcohols, and mono‐alcohols and diols are obtained in high yields (≥85 %) from substrates with even and odd numbers of OH groups, respectively. The high catalytic performance of ReO_x–Pd/CeO₂ can be assigned to rhenium species with +4 or +5 valence state, and the formation of this species is promoted by H₂/Pd and the ceria support.     

Confined Ultrathin Pd‐Ce Nanowires with Outstanding Moisture and SO2 Tolerance in Methane Combustion

An efficient strategy (enhanced metal oxide interaction and core–shell confinement to inhibit the sintering of noble metal) is presented confined ultrathin Pd‐CeO_x nanowire (2.4 nm) catalysts for methane combustion, which enable CH₄ total oxidation at a low temperature of 350 °C, much lower than that of a commercial Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst (425 °C). Importantly, unexpected stability was observed even under harsh conditions (800 °C, water vapor, and SO₂), owing to the confinement and shielding effect of the porous silica shell together with the promotion of CeO₂. Pd‐CeO_x solid solution nanowires (Pd‐Ce NW) as cores and porous silica as shells (Pd‐CeNW@SiO₂) were rationally prepared by a facile and direct self‐assembly strategy for the first time. This strategy is expected to inspire more active and stable catalysts for use under severe conditions (vehicle emissions control, reforming, and water–gas shift reaction).     

Photocatalytic Free Radical-Controlled Synthesis of High-Performance Single-Atom Catalysts

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have emerged as crucial players in catalysis research, prompting extensive investigation and application. The precise control of metal atom nucleation and growth has garnered significant attention. In this study, we present a straightforward approach for preparing SACs utilizing a photocatalytic radical control strategy. Notably, we demonstrate for the first time that radicals generated during the photochemical process effectively hinder the aggregation of individual atoms. By leveraging the cooperative anchoring of nitrogen atoms and crystal lattice oxygen on the support, we successfully stabilize the single atom. Our Pd₁/TiO₂ catalysts exhibit remarkable catalytic activity and stability in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, which was 43 times higher than Pd/C. Furthermore, we successfully depose Pd atoms onto various substrates, including TiO₂, CeO₂, and WO₃. The photocatalytic radical control strategy can be extended to other single-atom catalysts, such as Ir, Pt, Rh, and Ru, underscoring its broad applicability.     

Light-off Performance of Three-Way Catalysts Before and After Accelerated Aging Test with an Engine-Dynamometer

This study demonstrates the reaction behavior during the purification of model automotive exhaust gases over Pd catalysts before and after thermal degradation. In particular, to investigate the relationship between the Pd state and the reaction behavior of Pd/Al₂O₃ and Pd/CeO₂−ZrO₂ (CZ), operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements were performed during purifying exhaust gases over real and model catalysts mimicking the degradation of Pd particles and CZ supports after accelerated aging tests. The NO reduction activity of the aggregated Pd metal species was as high as that of the highly dispersed Pd species, but hydrocarbon (HC) poisoning was significantly enhanced by the aggregation of Pd metal particles caused by thermal aging. The existence of a three-phase boundary (TPB) between the CZ, the Pd particles, and the gas phase strongly affected the catalytic activity at low temperatures, and the presence of a sufficient TPB facilitated the combustion of unburned HCs owing to the oxygen storage performance of CZ. Thus, the TPB reduced the poisoning of the precious metal surface by HC species at low temperatures. Therefore, the findings of this study will facilitate the development of next-generation gas purification catalysts with high activity and durability.     

l‐Arginine‐Triggered Self‐Assembly of CeO2 Nanosheaths on Palladium Nanoparticles in Water

Pd@CeO₂ core–shell nanostructures with a tunable Pd core size, shape, and nanostructure as well as a tunable CeO₂ sheath thickness were obtained by a biomolecule‐assisted method. The synthetic process is simple and green, as it involves only the heating of a mixture of Ce(NO₃)₃, l ‐arginine, and preformed Pd seeds in water without additives. Importantly, the synthesis is free of thiol groups and halide ions, thus providing a possible solution to the problem of secondary pollution by Pd nanoparticles in the sheath‐coating process. The Pd/CeO₂ nanostructures can be composited well with γ‐Al₂O₃ to create a heterogeneous catalyst. In subsequent tests of catalytic NO reduction by CO, Pd@CeO₂/Al₂O₃ samples based on Pd cubes (6, 10, and 18 nm), Pd octahedra (6 nm), and Pd cuboctahedra (9 nm) as well as a simply loaded Pd cube (6 nm)–CeO₂/Al₂O₃ sample were used as catalysts to investigate the effects of the Pd core size and shape and the hybrid nanostructure on the catalytic performance.     

Effects of precipitants and surfactants on catalytic activity of Pd/CeO<Subscript>2</Subscript> for CO oxidation

A series of precipitants and commercial surfactants (soft templates) were employed to synthesize mesoporous/nano CeO₂ by a hydrothermal method. As-prepared CeO₂ was impregnated with palladium and employed for low-temperature catalytic oxidation of CO. It was found that both soft templates and precipitants had significant effects on the morphology, particle size, crystallinity, and porous structure of the CeO₂, having a significant effect on the surface palladium abundance, molar ratios of surface species, and catalytic activity of the final impregnated Pd/CeO₂. Using ammonia as precipitant could facilitate increased surface palladium abundance and surface molar ratios of PdO/Pd _SMSI , Ce³⁺/(Ce³⁺ + Ce⁴⁺), and O_surface/O_lattice. The catalytic activity of the final Pd/CeO₂ catalysts could be enhanced as well. The optimal P123-assisted ammonia-precipitated Pd/CeO₂ catalyst exhibited over 99% catalytic conversion of CO at 50 °C.     

Graphene‐Supported Ultrafine Metal Nanoparticles Encapsulated by Mesoporous Silica: Robust Catalysts for Oxidation and Reduction Reactions

Graphene nanosheet‐supported ultrafine metal nanoparticles encapsulated by thin mesoporous SiO₂ layers were prepared and used as robust catalysts with high catalytic activity and excellent high‐temperature stability. The catalysts can be recycled and reused in many gas‐ and solution‐phase reactions, and their high catalytic activity can be fully recovered by high‐temperature regeneration, should they be deactivated by feedstock poisoning. In addition to the large surface area provided by the graphene support, the enhanced catalytic performance is also attributed to the mesoporous SiO₂ layers, which not only stabilize the ultrafine metal nanoparticles, but also prevent the aggregation of the graphene nanosheets. The synthetic strategy can be extended to other metals, such as Pd and Ru, for preparing robust catalysts for various reactions.     

Catalytic Hydrodechlorination of 1,2,4,5‐Tetrachlorobenzene over Various Supports Loaded Palladium Catalysts

Water pollution by polychlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons has always been a global issue. In this work, we reported a synthesis of supported palladium catalysts Pd/C, Pd/CeO₂, Pd/SBA‐15, Pd/ZrO₂,Pd/SiO₂, and Pd/Al₂O₃ as well as their catalytic activities on hydrodechlorination (HDC) of 1,2,4,5‐tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB). These Pd catalysts were characterized by Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller (BET) specific surface area, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), energy Dispersive X‐ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), CO‐chemisorption, and H2‐temperature programmed reduction (H2‐TPR) analysis. Pd/C, Pd/CeO₂ and Pd/SBA‐15 catalysts showed relatively high catalytic activities. The catalytic activities were associated with dispersion of Pd, metal surface area, and reaction temperature, etc.
