A Detailed Insight into the Effects of Morphologies of Cerium Oxide on Fenton-like Reactions for Different Applications

As an exceptional Fenton-like reagent, cerium oxide (CeO₂) finds applications in biomedical science and organic pollutants treatment. The Fenton-like reaction catalyzed by CeO₂ typically encompasses two distinct processes: one resembling the classical Fenton reaction, wherein cerium (Ce³⁺) triggers the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) to yield reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the other involves the complexation of H₂O₂ on the Ce³⁺ surface, leading to the formation of peroxides. However, the influence of diverse CeO₂ morphologies on these two reaction pathways has not been comprehensively explored. In this study, CeO₂ exhibiting three typical morphologies, rods, cubes, and spheres, were prepared. The generation of ROS and peroxides was evaluated using the 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidation reaction and the reduction current of H₂O₂, respectively. Moreover, the impacts of pH variations and CeO₂/H₂O₂ concentrations on the production and conversion of these two reaction products were investigated. To corroborate the distinctions between the resultant products and their applicability, apoptosis assays and acid orange 7 (AO7) degradation analyses were performed. Notably, CeO₂ rods exhibited the highest proportion of Ce³⁺, predominantly engaging in complexation with H₂O₂ to foster peroxide formation, thereby facilitating the robust degradation of AO7. However, the generated peroxides appeared to occupy Ce³⁺ sites, thereby impeding the H₂O₂ decomposition process. Conversely, Ce³⁺ species on the surface of CeO₂ cubes were primarily involved in H₂O₂ decomposition, leading to heightened ROS production, and thus showcasing substantial potential for damaging A549 tumor cells. It is worth noting that the ability of these Ce³⁺ species to form peroxides through complexation with H₂O₂ was comparatively reduced. In summation, this study sheds light on the intricate interplay between distinct CeO₂ morphologies and their divergent impacts on Fenton-like reactions. These findings expand our comprehension of the influences on its reactivity of CeO₂ morphologies and open new insights for applications in diverse domains, from organic dye degradation to tumor therapy.     

Improvement of Visible-Light H2 Evolution Activity of Pb2Ti2O5.4F1.2 Photocatalyst by Coloading of Rh and Pd Cocatalysts

Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 modified with various metal cocatalysts was studied as a photocatalyst for visible-light H₂ evolution. Although unmodified Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 showed negligible activity, modification of its surface with Rh led to the best observed promotional effect among the Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 samples modified with a single metal cocatalyst. The H₂ evolution activity was further enhanced by coloading with Pd; the Rh−Pd/Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 photocatalyst showed 3.2 times greater activity than the previously reported Pt/Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2. X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy, photoelectrochemical, and transient absorption spectroscopy measurements indicated that the coloaded Rh and Pd species, which were partially alloyed on the Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 surface, improved the electron-capturing ability, thereby explaining the high activity of the coloaded Rh−Pd/Pb₂Ti₂O_5.4F_1.2 catalyst toward H₂ evolution.     

Enhanced activity and SO2 resistance of Co-modified CeO2-TiO2 catalyst prepared by facile co-precipitation for elemental mercury removal in flue gas

The Co-modified CeO₂-TiO₂ catalyst prepared by facile co-precipitation was used for efficient elemental mercury oxidation in flue gas. Results indicated that Co doping greatly enhanced the activity and SO₂ resistance of the CeO₂-TiO₂ catalyst. In the presence of 5% O₂, 500 ppm NO, 800 ppm SO₂ and 3% H₂O at 200 °C, the Hg⁰ removal efficiency of CeCo₃/Ti could maintain at about 87% for a relatively long time. Characterizations of catalysts (BET, XRD, Raman spectroscopy, TEM, H₂-TPR, O₂-TPD, XPS, TG-MS and SO₂-DRIFTS) were carried out to reveal the mechanism of Co modification on the redox ability, SO₂ resistance and resultant mercury oxidation removal performance of catalyst. It was found that an interaction of Ce with Co promoted the dispersion of CeO₂, increased chemisorbed oxygen concentration, and improved the oxygen storage capacity and the reducibility of catalyst, which was beneficial to the improvement of Hg⁰ oxidation removal. Hg⁰ would adsorb onto the catalyst and react with surface active oxygen species replenished by gas-phase O₂ to be oxidized via Mars-Maessen mechanism. SO₂ consumed the surface active oxygen species and resulted in the reduction of Ce⁴⁺ to Ce³⁺, which induced the deactivation of catalyst. The introduced Co in CeO₂-TiO₂ catalyst exerted the function of protecting Ce⁴⁺ from being poisoned by SO₂ and thus promoted the sulfur resistance and Hg⁰ removal performance of the catalyst in the presence of SO₂.     

Different Synthesis Protocols for Co3O4–CeO2 Catalysts—Part 1: Influence on the Morphology on the Nanoscale

Co₃O₄‐modified CeO₂ (Co/Ce 1:4) was prepared by a combination of sol–gel processing and solvothermal treatment. The distribution of Co was controlled by means of the synthesis protocol to yield three different morphologies, namely, Co₃O₄ nanoparticles located on the surface of CeO₂ particles, coexistent Co₃O₄ and CeO₂ nanoparticles, or Co oxide structures homogeneously distributed within CeO₂. The effect of the different morphologies on the properties of Co₃O₄–CeO₂ was investigated with regard to the crystallite phase(s), particle size, surface area, and catalytic activity for CO oxidation. The material with Co₃O₄ nanoparticles finely dispersed on the surface of CeO₂ particles had the highest catalytic activity.     

Effect of Calcination Temperature and Pretreatment with Reaction Gas on Properties of Co/γ‐Al2O3 Catalysts for Partial Oxidation of Methane

The effects of calcination temperature and feedstock pretreatment on the catalytic performance of Co/γ‐Al₂O₃ catalysts were studied for partial oxidation of methane (POM) to synthesis gas, with emphasis on the role of feedstock pretreatment. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by N₂ adsorption, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), H₂ temperature‐programmed reduction (H₂‐TPR), and Raman spectroscopy. The results showed that the pretreatment of the catalyst by reaction gas significantly improved the catalytic activity and stability for the POM reaction. On the other hand, the effect of calcination temperature was less significant. Although the initial activity was increased by an increased calcination temperature, the catalyst without the feedstock pretreatment suffered a rapid deactivation. The reaction‐atmosphere pretreatment was revealed as a process that mainly modified the surface structure of the catalyst. In that process, the formation of a CoAl₂O₄‐like compound led to high Co metal dispersion after reduction, and the transformation of the carrier into α‐Al₂O₃ occurred over the catalyst surface. Both the high dispersion of cobalt and the presence of α‐Al₂O₃ surface phase were assumed as the important factors resulting in an excellent catalytic performance in terms of high activity and high stability.

Palladium Nanoparticles Embedded into Graphene Nanosheets: Preparation,Characterization, and Nonenzymatic Electrochemical Detection of H2O2

A novel nonenzymatic H₂O₂ sensor based on a palladium nanoparticles/graphene (Pd‐NPs/GN) hybrid nanostructures composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was reported. The composites of graphene (GN) decorated with Pd nanoparticles have been prepared by simultaneously reducing graphite oxide (GO) and K₂PdCl₄ in one pot. The Pd‐NPs were intended to enlarge the interplanar spacing of graphene nanosheets and were well dispersed on the surface or completely embedded into few‐layer GN, which maintain their high surface area and prevent GN from aggregating. XPS analysis indicated that the surface Pd atoms are negatively charged, favoring the reduction process of H₂O₂. Moreover, the Pd‐NPs/GN/GCE could remarkably decrease the overpotential and enhance the electron‐transfer rate due to the good contact between Pd‐NPs and GN sheets, and Pd‐NPs have high catalytical effect for H₂O₂ reduction. Amperometric measurements allow observation of the electrochemical reduction of H₂O₂ at 0.5 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The H₂O₂ reduction current is linear to its concentration in the range from 1×10^?9 to 2×10^?3 M, and the detection limit was found to be 2×10^?10 M (S/N=3). The as‐prepared nonenzymatic H₂O₂ sensor exhibits excellent repeatability, selectivity and long‐term stability.
