Novel synthesis of Fe2O3–Pt ellipsoids coated by double‐shelled La2O3 as a catalyst for the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol 下载免费PDF全文
Yan Gao Jiasheng Fang Yiwei Zhang Chao Zhang Shuo Zhao Yuming Zhou Mengqiu Huang Xiaoli Sheng 《应用有机金属化学》2018,32(3)
A facile strategy is reported for the fabrication of Pt‐loaded core–shell nanocomposite ellipsoids (Fe2O3‐Pt@DSL) consisting of ellipsoidal Fe2O3 cores, double‐layered La2O3 shells and deposited Pt nanoparticles (NPs). The formation of the doubled‐shelled structure uses Fe2O3‐Pt@mSiO2 as template sacrificial agent and it involves the re‐deposition of silica and self‐assembly of metal oxide units. The preparation methods of double‐shelled metal oxides avoid repeated coating and etching and could be utilized to fabricate other shaped double‐shelled composites. Characterization results indicated that the Fe2O3‐Pt@DSL nanocomposites possessed mesoporous structure and tunable shell thickness. Moreover, due to the formation of Fe2O3 and La2O3 composites, Pt NPs can also be stabilized via deposition on chemically active oxides with a synergistic effect. Therefore, as a catalyst for the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol, Fe2O3‐Pt@DSL showed superior catalytic activity and reusability due to structural superiority and enhanced composite synergy. Finally, well‐dispersed Pt NPs were encapsulated into the void between the shell layers to construct the Fe2O3‐Pt@DSL‐Pt catalyst. 相似文献

Fabrication and characterization of double‐shelled CeO2‐La2O3/Au/Fe3O4 hollow architecture as a recyclable and highly thermal stability nanocatalyst 下载免费PDF全文

A novel magnetic binary‐metal‐oxide‐coated nanocataly composing of a hollow Fe3O4 core and CeO2‐La2O3 shells with Au nanoparticles encapsulated has been created in this work. The structural features of catalysts were characterized by several techniques, including SEM, TEM, UV‐vis, FTIR, XRD, XPS and TGA analyses. After the coating of CeO2‐La2O3 layer, CeO2‐La2O3/Au/C/Fe3O4 microspheres showed a superior thermal stability and catalytic reactivity compared with a pure CeO2 or La2O3 layer. Accompanied by the burning of carbon layer, the specific surface could be increased by the formation of double‐shelled structure. Besides, the desired samples could be separated by magnet, implying the superior recycle performance. Using the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol by NaBH4 as a model reaction, the microspheres exhibited highly reusability, superior catalytic activity, thermal stability, which are attributed to the unique double‐shelled structure of the support, uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles, the highly thermal stability of CeO2‐La2O3 layer and mixed oxide synergistic effect. As a consequence, the unique nanocatalyst will open a promising way in the fabrication of the double‐shelled hollow binary‐metal‐oxide materials for future research and has great potential in other applications. 相似文献

We show that Pt nanoparticles synthesized on oxide nanocatalysts exhibit catalytic activity enhancement depending on the type of the oxide support. To synthesize the Pt/oxide nanocatalysts, we employed a versatile synthesis method using Pt nanoparticles (NPs) supported on various metal oxides (i.e., SiO2, CeO2, Al2O3, and FeAl2O4) utilizing ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. Catalytic CO oxidation was carried out on these catalysts, and it was found that the catalytic activity of the Pt NPs varied depending on the supporting oxide. While Pt/CeO2 exhibited the highest metal dispersion and active surface area, Pt/FeAl2O4 exhibited the lowest active surface area. Among the Pt/oxide nanocatalysts, Pt NPs supported on CeO2 showed the highest catalytic activity. We ascribe the enhancement in turnover frequency of the Pt/CeO2 nanocatalysts to strong metal–support interactions due to charge transport between the metal catalysts and the oxide support. Such Pt/oxide nanocatalysts synthesized via spray pyrolysis offer potential possibilities for large-scale synthesis of tailored catalytic systems for technologically relevant applications. 相似文献

General Synthesis of Multi‐Shelled Mixed Metal Oxide Hollow Spheres with Superior Lithium Storage Properties 下载免费PDF全文
Dr. Genqiang Zhang Prof. Xiong Wen Lou 《Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)》2014,53(34):9041-9044
Complex hollow structures of transition metal oxides, especially mixed metal oxides, could be promising for different applications such as lithium ion batteries. However, it remains a great challenge to fabricate well‐defined hollow spheres with multiple shells for mixed transition metal oxides. Herein, we have developed a new “penetration–solidification–annealing” strategy which can realize the synthesis of various mixed metal oxide multi‐shelled hollow spheres. Importantly, it is found that multi‐shelled hollow spheres possess impressive lithium storage properties with both high specific capacity and excellent cycling stability. Specifically, the carbon‐coated CoMn2O4 triple‐shelled hollow spheres exhibit a specific capacity of 726.7 mA h g?1 and a nearly 100 % capacity retention after 200 cycles. The present general strategy could represent a milestone in design and synthesis of mixed metal oxide complex hollow spheres and their promising uses in different areas. 相似文献

Metallosurfactant Ionogels in Imidazolium and Protic Ionic Liquids as Precursors To Synthesize Nanoceria as Catalase Mimetics for the Catalytic Decomposition of H2O2 下载免费PDF全文
Xiaolin Wang Qiao Yang Yixue Cao Haibin Hao Junhan Zhou Prof. Dr. Jingcheng Hao 《Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)》2016,22(49):17857-17865
The gelation behavior of cationic surfactants with different counterions, Br?, [FeCl3Br]?, and [CeCl3Br]?, in imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) and protic ethylammonium nitrate was investigated. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering measurements and freeze‐fracture transmission electron microscopy observations revealed the lamellar phases of metallosurfactant ionogels. The characteristics of imidazolium ILs, including the size and type, have effects on metallosurfactant ionogel properties, such as transformation temperatures, interlayer spacing, and mechanical strength. Cubic fluorite structured cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) were produced by using metallosurfactant ionogels as precursors. Cubic fluorite CeO2 exhibited good catalase mimetic activity toward H2O2 to generate O2, providing more multiple mimetic enzyme activities of CeO2 NPs for H2O2. 相似文献

A Facile Process for the Preparation of Three‐Dimensional Hollow Zn(OH)2 Nanoflowers at Room Temperature 下载免费PDF全文
Ren Cai Dan Yang Liqing Zhang Liping Qiu Hao Liang Xigao Chen Sena Cansiz Zuxiao Zhang Shuo Wan Kimberly Stewart Qingyu Yan Prof. Weihong Tan 《Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)》2016,22(32):11143-11147
A facile strategy has been developed to synthesize double‐shelled Zn(OH)2 nanoflowers (DNFs) at room temperature. The nanoflowers were generated via conversion of Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) using ZnCl2 and Na2S2O3 by a simple process. Outward diffusion of the Cu2+, produced by an oxidation process on the surface of NPs, and the inward diffusion of Zn2+ by coordination and migration, eventually lead to a hollow cavity in the inner NPs with a double‐shelled 3D hollow flower shapes. The thickness of the inner and outer shells is estimated to be about 20 nm, and the thickness of nanopetals is about 7 nm. The nanoflowers have large surface areas and excellent adsorption properties. As a proof of potential applications, the DNFs exhibited an excellent ability to remove organic molecules from aqueous solutions. 相似文献

An area‐selective atomic layer deposition (AS‐ALD) method is described to construct oxide nanotraps to anchor Pt nanoparticles (NPs) on Al2O3 supports. The as‐synthesized catalysts have exhibited outstanding room‐temperature CO oxidation activity, with a significantly lowered apparent activation energy (ca. 22.17 kJ mol−1) that is half that of pure Pt catalyst with the same loading. Furthermore, the structure shows excellent sintering resistance with the high catalytic activity retention up to 600 °C calcination. The key feature of the oxide nanotraps lies in its ability to anchor Pt NPs via strong metal–oxide interactions while still leaving active metal facets exposed. Our reported method for forming such oxide structure with nanotraps shows great potential for the simultaneous enhancement of thermal stability and activity of precious metal NPs. 相似文献

Delivery of Highly Active Noble‐Metal Nanoparticles into Microspherical Supports by an Aerosol‐Spray Method 下载免费PDF全文
Erjie Kan Long Kuai Wenhai Wang Prof. Dr. Baoyou Geng 《Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)》2015,21(38):13291-13296
Noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) with 1–5 nm diameter obtained from NaHB4 reduction possess high catalytic activity. However, they are rarely used directly. This work presents a facile, versatile, and efficient aerosol‐spray approach to deliver noble‐metal NPs into metal oxide supports, while maintaining the size of the NPs and the ability to easily adjust the loading amount. In comparison with the conventional spray approach, the size of the loaded noble‐metal nanoparticles can be significantly decreased. An investigation of the 4‐nitrophenol hydrogenation reaction catalyzed by these materials suggests that the NPs/oxides catalysts have high activity and good endurance. For 1 % Au/CeO2 and Pd/Al2O3 catalysts, the rate constants reach 2.03 and 1.46 min?1, which is much higher than many other reports with the same noble‐metal loading scale. Besides, the thermal stability of catalysts can be significantly enhanced by modifying the supports. Therefore, this work contributes an efficient method as well as some guidance on how to produce highly active and stable supported noble‐metal catalysts. 相似文献

The interaction between metal nanoparticles (NPs) and their substrate plays a critical role in determining the particle morphology, distribution, and properties. The pronounced impact of a thin oxide coating on the dispersion of metal NPs on a carbon substrate is presented. Al2O3‐supported Pt NPs are compared to the direct synthesis of Pt NPs on bare carbon surfaces. Pt NPs with an average size of about 2 nm and a size distribution ranging between 0.5 nm and 4.0 nm are synthesized on the Al2O3 coated carbon nanofiber, a significant improvement compared to those directly synthesized on a bare carbon surface. First‐principles modeling verifies the stronger adsorption of Pt clusters on Al2O3 than on carbon, which attributes the formation of ultrafine Pt NPs. This strategy paves the way towards the rational design of NPs with enhanced dispersion and controlled particle size, which are promising in energy storage and electrocatalysis. 相似文献

The replacement of platinum with non‐precious‐metal electrocatalysts with high efficiency and superior stability for the hydrogen‐evolution reaction (HER) remains a great challenge. Herein, we report the one‐step synthesis of uniform, ultrafine molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) nanoparticles (NPs) within a carbon matrix from inexpensive starting materials (dicyanamide and ammonium molybdate). The optimized catalyst consisting of Mo2C NPs with sizes lower than 3 nm encapsulated by ultrathin graphene shells (ca. 1–3 layers) showed superior HER activity in acidic media, with a very low onset potential of ?6 mV, a small Tafel slope of 41 mV dec?1, and a large exchange current density of 0.179 mA cm?2, as well as good stability during operation for 12 h. These excellent properties are similar to those of state‐of‐the‐art 20 % Pt/C and make the catalyst one of the most active acid‐stable electrocatalysts ever reported for HER. 相似文献

We have designed a new Pt/SnO2/graphene nanomaterial by using L ‐arginine as a linker; this material shows the unique Pt‐around‐SnO2 structure. The Sn2+ cations reduce graphene oxide (GO), leading to the in situ formation of SnO2/graphene hybrids. L ‐Arginine is used as a linker and protector to induce the in situ growth of Pt nanoparticles (NPs) connected with SnO2 NPs and impede the agglomeration of Pt NPs. The obtained Pt/SnO2/graphene composites exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity and stability for the ethanol oxidation reaction as compared with the commercial Pt/C catalyst owing to the close‐connected structure between the Pt NPs and SnO2 NPs. This work should have a great impact on the rational design of future metal–metal oxide nanostructures with high catalytic activity and stability for fuel cell systems. 相似文献

Hierarchical FeCoS2–CoS2 double‐shelled nanotubes have been rationally designed and constructed for efficient photocatalytic CO2 reduction under visible light. The synthetic strategy, engaging the two‐step cation‐exchange reactions, precisely integrates two metal sulfides into a double‐shelled tubular heterostructure with both of the shells assembled from ultrathin two‐dimensional (2D) nanosheets. Benefiting from the distinctive structure and composition, the FeCoS2–CoS2 hybrid can reduce bulk‐to‐surface diffusion length of photoexcited charge carriers to facilitate their separation. Furthermore, this hybrid structure can expose abundant active sites for enhancing CO2 adsorption and surface‐dependent redox reactions, and harvest incident solar irradiation more efficiently by light scattering in the complex interior. As a result, these hierarchical FeCoS2–CoS2 double‐shelled nanotubes exhibit superior activity and high stability for photosensitized deoxygenative CO2 reduction, affording a high CO‐generating rate of 28.1 μmol h?1 (per 0.5 mg of catalyst). 相似文献

We prepared Pt catalysts supported on various metal oxides, viz., ZrO2, CeO2, TiO2, yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), SiO2, SiO2–Al2O3, and γ-Al2O3, using an incipient wetness method and applied them to propane combustion. In the cases of ZrO2-, CeO2-, and TiO2-supported Pt catalysts, supports with different surface areas were also used. The Pt dispersion in Pt catalysts supported
on metal oxides increased with increasing surface area of the support for the same metal oxide. Pt catalysts on supports with
lower surface areas (ZrO2, CeO2, and TiO2) showed higher catalytic activities for propane combustion than did Pt catalysts on supports with higher surface areas. The
catalytic activity decreased in the following order: Pt/ZrO2 (2) > Pt/CeO2 (9) > Pt/TiO2 (1) = Pt/SiO2 (350) > Pt/ZrO2 (18) = Pt/YSZ > Pt/TiO2 (330) > Pt/SiO2–Al2O3 (350) > Pt/ZrO2 (73) > Pt/γ-Al2O3 (180) > Pt/CeO2 (160). The catalytic activity is inversely proportional to the amount of O2 chemisorbed up to the reaction temperature. It can be concluded that metallic Pt is essential for propane combustion and
is maintained for the Pt catalysts with large Pt metal particles, which can be prepared by using a support with a low surface
area. 相似文献

Preparation of disk‐like Pt/CeO2‐p‐TiO2 catalyst derived from MIL‐125(Ti) for excellent catalytic performance 下载免费PDF全文

A feasible strategy is reported for the synthesis of a disk‐like Pt/CeO2‐p‐TiO2 catalyst derived from the titanium‐based metal–organic framework (MOF) MIL‐125(Ti) through a few valid steps. To verify the successful synthesis and structural features of the Pt/CeO2‐p‐TiO2 catalyst, as‐prepared samples were characterized using several techniques. The characterizations demonstrated that MOF‐derived porous TiO2 was appropriate for application as a support owing to its moderate surface area (101 m2 g?1) and suitable pore size (6 nm). Moreover, to study the effect of calcination temperature on the catalytic performance, the obtained catalyst was calcined at various temperatures. It was found that Pt/CeO2‐p‐TiO2 calcined at 550 °C exhibited the highest catalytic performance, evaluated by means of the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol monitored by UV–visible spectra. Furthermore, this catalyst showed good reusability with a conversion of 94% even after six cycles. Finally, a possible reaction mechanism was proposed to explain the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol to 4‐aminophenol over the Pt/CeO2‐p‐TiO2 catalyst. 相似文献

The unique physicochemical properties of ordered mesoporous transition metal oxides have attracted more and more attention. The hydrolysis process of metal oxide precursors is difficult to control, and it is difficult to synthesize an ordered mesoporous transition metal oxide material using the conventional template method. Ordered mesoporous Pt/Fe3O4–CeO2 heterostructure gel materials with excellent catalytic properties were successfully prepared using aerogel technology and the chemical deposition method. The Pt/Fe3O4–CeO2 material was an n–n combined heterostructured semiconductor material which consisted of a magnetic Fe3O4 layer, a CeO2 core and Pt noble metal doped nanoparticles. A layer of Fe3O4 thin film was formed on the surface of ordered mesoporous Pt/CeO2 gel matrix material using the chemical deposition method. The intriguing heterostructural features could facilitate reactant diffusion and exposure of active sites which could enhance synergistic catalytic effects between the Pt nanoparticles and CeO2 nanoparticles. Compared with Pt/CeO2, the prepared Pt/Fe3O4–CeO2 showed enhanced catalytic activity in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol at room temperature. The catalytic activity of the heterostructure catalysts was systematically investigated using 4-nitrophenol reduction as a model reaction. The results showed that the Pt (0.1%)/Fe3O4–CeO2 sample exhibited the optimal catalytic performance toward catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol. The study provided a method for the preparation of heterostructure nanocatalysts with high efficiency, which would be effective for application in various catalytic reactions. 相似文献

Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) play a vital role in heterogeneous catalytic reactions. However, pristine Au NPs usually suffer from poor selectivity and difficult recyclability. In this work, Fe3O4‐Au@CeO2 hybrid nanofibers were prepared via a simple one‐pot redox reaction between HAuCl4 and Ce (NO3)3 in the presence of Fe3O4 nanofibers. CeO2 shell was uniformly coated on the surface of Fe3O4 nanofibers to form a unique core‐shell structure, while Au NPs were encapsulated inside the CeO2 shell. The as‐prepared Fe3O4‐Au@CeO2 hybrid nanofibers have been proved to be positively surface charged due to the formation of CeO2 shell, enabling them to be good candidates for predominant selective catalytic activity towards the degradation of negatively charged organic dyes. In addition, the Fe3O4‐Au@CeO2 hybrid nanofibers showed magnetic properties, offering them excellent recyclable usability. This work presents a facile and effective solution to prepare magnetic noble metal/metal oxide hybrid nanomaterials with unique chemical structure and surface characteristic for promising applications in heterogeneous catalysis. 相似文献

Facile Synthesis of Platinum–Cerium(IV) Oxide Hybrids Arched on Reduced Graphene Oxide Catalyst in Reverse Micelles with High Activity and Durability for Hydrolysis of Ammonia Borane 下载免费PDF全文

Highly dispersed Pt‐CeO2 hybrids arched on reduced graphene oxide (Pt‐CeO2/rGO) were facilely synthesized by a combination of the reverse micelle technique and a redox reaction without any additional reductant or surfactant. Under a N2 atmosphere, the redox reaction between Ce3+ and Pt2+ occurs automatically in alkaline solution, which results in the formation of Pt‐CeO2/rGO nanocomposites (NCs). The as‐synthesized Pt‐CeO2/rGO NCs exhibit superior catalytic performance relative to that shown by the free Pt nanoparticles, Pt/rGO, Pt‐CeO2 hybrid, and the physical mixture of Pt‐CeO2 and rGO; furthermore, the nanocomposites show significantly better activity than the commercial Pt/C catalyst toward the hydrolysis of ammonia borane (NH3BH3) at room temperature. Moreover, the Pt‐CeO2/rGO NCs have remarkable stability, and 92 % of their initial catalytic activity is preserved even after 10 runs. The excellent activity of the Pt‐CeO2/rGO NCs can be attributed not only to the synergistic structure but also to the electronic effects of the Pt‐CeO2/rGO NCs among Pt, CeO2, and rGO. 相似文献

Unique triple‐shelled Mo‐polydopamine (Mo‐PDA) hollow spheres are synthesized through a facile solvothermal process. A sequential self‐templating mechanism for the multi‐shell formation is proposed, and the number of shells can be adjusted by tuning the size of the Mo‐glycerate templates. These triple‐shelled Mo‐PDA hollow spheres can be converted to triple‐shelled MoO2/carbon composite hollow spheres by thermal treatment. Owing to the unique multi‐shells and hollow interior, the as‐prepared MoO2/carbon composite hollow spheres exhibit appealing performance as an anode material for lithium‐ion batteries, delivering a high capacity of ca. 580 mAh g?1 at 0.5 A g?1 with good rate capability and long cycle life. 相似文献

This article presents the influence of surface additions of nanocrystalline rare earth (RE) oxides CeO2, La2O3, and CeO2 + La2O3 on the isothermal oxidation behavior of Fe20Cr and Fe20Cr5Al at 1000 °C. Thermogravimetric studies revealed parabolic kinetics
in all cases and the scale thickness on specimen surfaces varied with the nature of RE oxide. The oxidation resistance of
specimens coated with two RE oxides was significantly higher than those coated with either one of the two oxides. The marked
increase in the oxidation resistance of the alloys coated with two RE oxides is due to optimization of RE ion radius and RE
oxide grain size/shape. 相似文献

Based on a few noteworthy features, cerium oxide nanoparticles have gained significance in nanotechnology. The effective microwave combustion method (MCM) and the conventional sol–gel (CRSGM) technologies are used in this study to successfully generate the crystalline CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs). Additionally, using a variety of spectroscopic and analytical methods, the synthesized CeO2 NPs are examined to assess to understand their structure and morphology. The XRD patterns of CeO2 NPs show that the structure exhibits a face-centered cubic lattice. Then, with demonstrated good conversion and selectivity, the impact of the epoxidation reaction of cyclohexene was examined. Finally, it can be said that using CeO2 nanoparticles is an efficient strategy to increase the catalytic activity toward the epoxidation reaction of cyclohexene. In the presence of acetonitrile as a solvent and H2O2 as an oxidant, the catalyst samples utilized in the cyclohexene epoxidation reaction were examined. In this study, the CeO2 catalyst outperformed all other catalysts in terms of cyclohexene maximal conversion and selectivity. After six prolonged cycles, the conversion of cyclohexene oxidation using CeO2 NPs shows reasonable recyclability and conversion efficiency, making it the best catalyst for an industrial production application.Additionally, the upgraded CeO2 nanoparticle electrode for nitrite detection has a linear concentration range (0.02–1200 M), a low detection limit (0.22 M), and a higher sensitivity (1.735 A M−1 cm−2). CeO2 NPs, on the other hand, have a quick response time, excellent sensitivity, and high selectivity. Additionally, the manufactured electrode is used to find nitrite in various water samples. Finally, it can be said that using CeO2 NPs is an efficient strategy to increase the catalytic activity toward cyclohexene oxidation and nitrite. 相似文献
