不同Ce/Mn摩尔比对CeO_2-MnO_x催化剂低温NH_3选择性催化还原NO的影响

以高锰酸钾和硝酸锰为锰源,采用改进的共沉淀法制备了不同Ce/Mn摩尔比的Ce O2-Mn Ox催化剂.以NH3为还原剂,考察了催化剂低温(小于150℃)NH3选择性催化还原NO的性能.并采用XRD,BET,H2-TPR,NH3-TPD和XPS等手段对催化剂的物理化学性质进行表征.结果表明,Ce O2-Mn Ox催化剂在50~150℃温度区间内表现出了良好的催化活性.引入适量的Ce可以有效地改变催化剂的晶粒大小,增强其氧化还原能力;而Mn的加入,促进了其低温SCR活性.当Ce/Mn摩尔比为1∶3时(C1M3),低温活性最佳,在82~150℃温度区间内NO去除率达到90%以上,这主要是由于C1M3催化剂有较高含量的表面吸附氧、大量的弱酸性位点、良好的氧化还原性能以及表面较高含量的Mn4+物种.     

Step‐by‐Step Growth of Complex Oxide Microstructures

The synthesis of complex and hybrid oxide microstructures is of fundamental interest and practical applications. However, the design and synthesis of such structures is a challenging task. A solution‐phase process to synthesize complex silica and silica–titania hybrid microstructures was developed by exploiting the emulsion‐droplet‐based step‐by‐step growth featuring shape control. The strategy is robust and can be extended to the preparation of complex hybrid structures consisting of two or more materials, with each having its own shape.     

Conductivity‐Dependent Completion of Oxygen Reduction on Oxide Catalysts

The electric conductivity‐dependence of the number of electrons transferred during the oxygen reduction reaction is presented. Intensive properties, such as the number of electrons transferred, are difficult to be considered conductivity‐dependent. Four different perovskite oxide catalysts of different conductivities were investigated with varying carbon contents. More conductive environments surrounding active sites, achieved by more conductive catalysts (providing internal electric pathways) or higher carbon content (providing external electric pathways), resulted in higher number of electrons transferred toward more complete 4e reduction of oxygen, and also changed the rate‐determining steps from two‐step 2e process to a single‐step 1e process. Experimental evidence of the conductivity dependency was described by a microscopic ohmic polarization model based on effective potential localized nearby the active sites.     

A Strategy to Control the Reactivation of Frustrated Lewis Pairs from Shelf‐Stable Carbene Borane Complexes

N‐Phosphine oxide substituted imidazolylidenes (PoxIms) have been synthesized and fully characterized. These species can undergo significant changes to the spatial environment surrounding their carbene center through rotation of the phosphine oxide moiety. Either classical Lewis adducts (CLAs) or frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are thus formed with B(C₆F₅)₃ depending on the orientation of the phosphine oxide group. A strategy to reactivate FLPs from CLAs by exploiting molecular motions that are responsive to external stimuli has therefore been developed. The reactivation conditions were successfully controlled by tuning the strain in the PoxIm–B(C₆F₅)₃ complexes so that reactivation only occurred above ambient temperature.     

Perovskites with the Framework‐Forming Xenon

The Group 18 elements (noble gases) were the last ones in the periodic system to have not been encountered in perovskite structures. We herein report the synthesis of a new group of double perovskites KM(XeNaO₆) (M=Ca, Sr, Ba) containing framework‐forming xenon. The structures of the new compounds, like other double perovskites, are built up of the alternating sequence of corner‐sharing (XeO₆) and (NaO₆) octahedra arranged in a three‐dimensional rocksalt order. The fact that xenon can be incorporated into the perovskite structure provides new insights into the problem of Xe depletion in the atmosphere. Since octahedrally coordinated Xe^VIII and Si^IV exhibit close values of ionic radii (0.48 and 0.40 Å, respectively), one could assume that Xe^VIII can be incorporated into hyperbaric frameworks such as MgSiO₃ perovskite. The ability of Xe to form stable inorganic frameworks can further extend the rich and still enigmatic chemistry of this noble gas.     

Synthesis of Nanoporous Ni‐Co Mixed Oxides by Thermal Decomposition of Metal‐Cyanide Coordination Polymers

A straightforward strategy to prepare nanoporous metal oxides with well‐defined shapes is highly desirable. Through thermal treatment and a proper selection of metal‐cyanide coordination polymers, nanoporous nickel‐cobalt mixed oxides with different shapes (i.e., flakes and cubes) can be easily prepared. Our nanoporous materials demonstrate high electrocatalytic activity for oxygen evolution reaction.     

Circumventing the OCl versus OOH scaling relation in the chlorine evolution reaction: Beyond dimensionally stable anodes

The development of selective electrocatalysts for the chlorine evolution reaction (CER) is majorly restrained by a scaling relation between the OCl and OOH adsorbates, rendering that active CER catalysts are also reasonably active in the competing oxygen evolution reaction (OER). While theory predicts that the OCl versus OOH scaling relation can be circumvented as soon as the elementary reaction steps in the CER comprise the Cl rather than the OCl adsorbate, it was demonstrated recently that PtN₄ sites embedded in a carbon nanotube follow this theoretical prediction. Advanced experimental analyses illustrate that the PtN₄ sites also reveal a different reaction kinetics compared to the industrial benchmark of dimensionally stable anodes (DSA). A reverse Volmer–Heyrovsky mechanism was identified, in which the rate-determining Volmer step for small overpotentials is followed by the kinetically limiting Heyrovsky step for larger overpotentials. Since the PtN₄ sites excel DSA in terms of activity and chlorine selectivity, we suggest the Cl intermediate as well as the reverse Volmer–Heyrovsky mechanism as the design criteria for the development of next-generation electrode materials beyond DSA.     

ZrCdOx/SAPO-18双功能催化剂催化CO2加氢合成低碳烯烃性能

采用并流共沉淀法制备了不同Zr/Cd原子比(n_Zr/n_Cd)的ZrCdO_x金属氧化物,并与水热法制备的不同硅铝比(n_{SiO_(2})/n_{Al_(2}O₃))的片状SAPO-18分子筛物理混合制得ZrCdO_x/SAPO-18双功能催化剂,研究了其催化CO₂加氢直接合成低碳烯烃性能。采用透射电子显微镜(TEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)、N2吸附-脱附、CO₂程序升温脱附(CO₂-TPD)、NH3程序升温脱附(NH3-TPD)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对催化剂进行了分析。与单一ZrO2相比,引入CdO使得ZrCdO_x比表面积下降,当n_Zr/n_Cd=8时制备的Zr8Cd1氧化物呈现出无定形小颗粒状,Zr与Cd之间较强的协同作用使得Zr Cd Ox氧化物产生了更多的氧空位,有利于CO₂的吸附活化。通过对Zr8Cd1金属氧化物与SAPO-18(硅铝比0.1)的质量比、工艺反应温度、压力和空速对催化性能影响的考察,获得了最佳反应条件。研究还发现,当SAPO-18的硅铝比从0.1降为0.01时,Br?nsted酸含量降低,产物中烯烃/烷烃物质的量之比从18.6提高至37.2,但副产物CO含量迅速增加,低碳烯烃时空收率明显下降。
