Pt/Co3O4/3DOM Al2O3：甲苯燃烧的高效催化剂

与硫氧化物、氮氧化物、一氧化碳以及悬浮颗粒一样,大部分挥发性有机物(VOCs)污染大气环境.控制 VOCs排放有多种方法,其中催化氧化法是一种有效技术,关键在于获得高效催化剂.
　　近年来,负载过渡金属和贵金属催化剂因具有比单纯负载贵金属和单纯负载过渡金属氧化物更好的催化性能而备受关注.在负载贵金属催化剂中,高比表面积载体负载 Pt, Pd或 Rh催化剂得到广泛而深入的研究,尽管这些催化剂成本较高,但是其对 VOCs氧化反应显示了很高的低温催化活性.众所周知,催化活性取决于贵金属和 VOCs的种类,不同负载贵金属催化剂对特定反应会表现出不同的催化活性.负载 Pt催化剂对长链碳氢化合物和芳香族化合物氧化反应表现出更高的活性.相对于负载贵金属催化剂,负载过渡金属氧化物催化剂不仅具有良好的氧化活性,而且价格低廉.迄今已发现许多过渡金属氧化物(如 Co3O4, Cr2O3和 MnO2等)对典型 VOCs氧化反应具有催化活性,其中 Co3O4的催化活性尤为突出.研究表明, Co3O4的性质和分散度是决定其性能的关键因素,制备方法、载体性质和过渡金属氧化物负载量对 Co3O4的物化性质具有重要影响,而且在负载 Pt催化剂中添加金属氧化物能改善其催化性能.尽管多孔氧化铝是一种常用的载体材料,但目前尚无文献报道三维有序大孔-介孔氧化铝负载 Co3O4和 Pt纳米粒子催化剂的制备及其对甲苯氧化反应的催化性能.
　　本文采用聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯微球胶晶模板法、等体积浸渍法和聚乙烯醇保护的硼氢化钠还原法制备了三维有序大孔-介孔(3DOM Al2O3)负载 Co3O4和 Pt (xPt/yCo3O4/3DOM Al2O3, Pt的质量分数(x%)为0-1.4%, Co3O4的质量分数(y%)为0-9.2%)纳米催化剂.通过电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱、X射线衍射、氮气吸附-脱附、扫描电子显微镜、透射电子显微镜、选区电子衍射、X射线光电子能谱及氢气程序升温还原等技术表征了催化剂的物化性质,利用固定床微型石英反应器评价了催化剂对甲苯氧化反应的催化活性.结果表明,xPt/yCo3O4/3DOMAl2O3催化剂具有多级孔结构(大孔孔径为180–200 nm,介孔孔径为4–6 nm),比表面积为94?102 m2/g.粒径为18.3 nm的 Co3O4纳米粒子和粒径为2.3?2.5 nm的 Pt纳米粒子均匀分散在3DOM Al2O3表面.在xPt/yCo3O4/3DOM Al2O3催化剂中,1.3Pt/8.9Co3O4/3DOM Al2O3拥有最高的 Oads浓度、最好的低温还原性和最高的甲苯氧化反应催化活性(当空速为20000mL g–1 h–1时,甲苯转化率达90%的反应温度为160oC).基于催化剂的活性数据和结构表征,我们认为,1.3Pt/8.9Co3O4/3DOM Al2O3优异的催化性能与其高分散的 Pt纳米粒子、高的 Oads浓度、好的低温还原性、Pt和 Co3O4纳米粒子间的强相互作用以及多级孔结构相关.

Co3O4纳米催化剂催化CO的形貌效应：合成过程和催化活性

通过催化剂将CO转化为无毒气体仍然是目前减少CO污染的主要手段.随着纳米技术的快速发展,纳米催化剂因其在催化反应中呈现出的独特结构效应（如形貌效应、尺寸效应等）而受到人们的广泛关注.已有大量研究表明,纳米Co3O4作为一种非贵金属氧化物催化剂具有强烈的催化形貌效应,展现出优异的CO低温催化活性.因此,通过合理的设计来调控催化剂粒子的形貌,从而进一步改善催化剂的性能已成为近年来催化剂领域的重要研究方向.对于Co3O4纳米催化剂的可控制备,水热法具有反应温和、操作简便和产品形貌易控等特点.早期的研究主要围绕于Co3O4形貌的可控合成以及不同形貌Co3O4催化剂对其催化活性产生的影响,较少有对其形貌形成机制的报道.特别是在水热反应中,系统研究各反应参数对催化剂各异形貌的形成影响鲜有报道.
　　本文在前人的研究基础上,重点研究了水热反应过程中各主要反应参数对产品形貌控制的影响,绘制了一副不同形貌Co3O4材料的合成过程图,并研究了Co3O4纳米催化剂催化CO氧化的形貌效应.通过水热法先成功合成了三种不同形貌(纳米棒、纳米片和纳米立方)的碱式碳酸钴纳米粒子,然后将其焙烧得到了Co3O4纳米粒子.采用扫描电子显微镜(SEM),透射电子显微镜(TEM), X射线粉末衍射仪(XRD),程序升温还原(H2-TPR和CO-TPR),氮气吸附-脱附比表面积测试(BET),氧气程序升温脱附(O2-TPD), X射线光电子能谱(XPS)等表征手段研究了不同反应参数对纳米碱式碳酸钴前驱体形貌形成的作用和各异形貌Co3O4纳米粒子在催化CO氧化反应中催化性能的差异及原因.
　　结果表明, Co3O4较好地继承了碱式碳酸钴的形貌,在较低温度条件下(≤140°C),钴源(CoCl2或Co(NO3)2)是影响前驱体形貌的关键因素,反应时间只对粒子的尺寸产生较大影响.低温下, CoCl2作为钴源易诱导生产纳米棒状碱式碳酸钴,而Co(NO3)2则有利于纳米片状生成.当温度高于140°C后,无论何种钴源,最终均制得纳米立方体.表面活性剂CTAB对前驱体的均一性和粒子的分散性产生重要影响,加入CTAB后得到的产品尺寸更均一,形貌更加规整.对比于其他两种形貌的样品, Co3O4纳米片显示出更好的CO催化氧化活性.
　　 XPS结果表明,各形貌Co3O4纳米材料的表面组成存在明显差异,活性物种Co3+含量的不同是影响催化活性差异的重要原因. Co3O4纳米片具有更多的Co3+活性位,立方纳米Co3O4表面吸附氧含量较高, Co3O4纳米棒则暴露出相对更多的Co2+.因此,在三种形貌催化剂上CO氧化反应中, Co3O4纳米片表现出最优的催化活性,纳米立方次之,而纳米棒最差. H2-TPR, CO-TPR和O2-TPD等结果也表明, Co3O4纳米片拥有更强的还原性能和脱附氧能力,其次是纳米立方Co3O4.这与XPS结果一致,证实了不同形貌Co3O4纳米催化剂上暴露活性位的数量和表面氧物种的不同是造成彼此间催化CO氧化活性差异的重要原因.此外,通过稳定性测试发现Co3O4纳米片具有较高的催化稳定性,在水蒸气存在的情况下Co3O4纳米片逐渐失活,但随后在干燥条件下其催化活性又逐渐得到恢复.

模板法制备的有序介孔Co3O4的电化学电容行为

One-step Growth of Hierarchical Nanotreelike TiO_2 on ITO without Template and Its Application in Gas Sensor

In this work, a distinctive hierarchical tree-like rutile TiO_2 architecture growing directly on the conductive surface of indium tin oxide(ITO) conductive glass substrates was successfully prepared via a facile one-step hydrothermal process, where titanium butoxide used as Ti source and HCl as an acidic medium solution. The as-obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), selected area electron diffraction(SAED) and applied in gas sensor. The characterization of FE-SEM indicates that the morphology of the products can be controlled by regulating solution acidity, the amount of titanium butoxide, reaction time, addition agents, and so on. The gas sensing test shows that the sensor fabricated with 3D nanotree-like rutile TiO_2 has higher gas response towards CH3 COCH3 gas than those with 1 D rod-like TiO_2 or common TiO_2 precipitate, indicating that the 3D nanotree-like architectures may be promising gas sensitive materials.     

NiO@ZnO heterostructured nanotubes: coelectrospinning fabrication, characterization, and highly enhanced gas sensing properties

Novel NiO@ZnO heterostructured nanotubes (NTs) were fabricated by the coelectrospinning method, consisting of external hexagonal ZnO shell and internal cubic NiO NTs. They are carefully investigated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques. A reasonable formation mechanism of the hierarchical NiO@ZnO NTs is proposed, which is discussed from the view of degradation temperature of different polymers and the amount of inorganic salts. They were then explored for fabrication of H(2)S gas sensors. The gas sensing test reveals that compared with the pure ZnO, NiO, and the ZnO-NiO mixed gas sensors, hierarchical gas sensor exhibits highly improved sensing performances to dilute hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) gas. The response of the optimum NiO@ZnO NTs sensor to 50 ppm H(2)S increases as high as 2.7-23.7 times compared to the other sensors, whereas the response and recovery times also become shorter considerably. These enhanced gas sensing properties are closely related to the change of nanostructure and activity of ZnO and NiO nanocrystals as well as combination of homo- and heterointerfaces in the optimum gas sensor, which are confirmed by a series of well-designed experiments.     

Hierarchical NiCo2O4 microspheres assembled by nanorods with p-type response for detection of triethylamine

The morphological and structural design provides an efficient protocol to optimize the performance of gas sensing materials. In this work, a gas sensor with high sensitivity for triethylamine (TEA) detection is developed based on p-type NiCo₂O₄ hierarchical microspheres. The NiCo₂O₄ microspheres, synthesized by a hydrothermal route, have a three-dimensional (3D) urchin-like structure assembled by nanorod building blocks. The structure-property correlation has been investigated by powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, N₂ adsorption-desorption tests and comprehensive gas sensing experiments. The influence of calcination temperature on the morphological structure and sensing performances has been investigated. Results reveal that the material annealed at 300 °C has a very large specific surface area of 125.27 m²/g, thereby demonstrating the best TEA sensing properties including high response and low limit of detection (145 ppb), good selectivity and stability. The further increase of the calcination temperature leads to the collapse of the 3D hierarchical structure with significantly decreased surface area, which is found to decline the sensing performances. This work indicates the promise of ternary p-type metal oxide nanostructures for application in highly sensitive gas sensors.     

Hierarchically structured cobalt oxide (Co3O4): the morphology control and its potential in sensors

A polyol process was developed to synthesize Co3O4 with controllable superstructures. By tuning the reaction conditions, the prepared Co3O4 were readily regulated in its morphologies, which could vary from nanosphere to two-dimensional (2D) nanoplates and 3D hierarchical structures, and finally to microspheres. The growth kinetics of such a process was also studied. The synthesized Co3O4 exhibited good sensitivity, remarkable selectivity, and high stability as an alcohol sensor material.     

纳米晶HoFeO3的合成及其气敏性能研究

To develop gas sensing materials with high performance,high sensitivity,excellent selectivity and quick response & recovery behavior,nanocrystalline material of rare-earth composite oxide HoFeO3 with the structure of perovskite type was synthesized by sol-gel method in the system of citric acid with the Ho2O3,Fe（NO3）3·9H2O,nitric acid（1: 1 vloume fraction）as the starting materials. The structure and crystal state of the powder were determined on an X-ray diffractometer（Germany Bluker D8-Advance）with a Cu K" radiation（wavelength λ = 0. 15406 nm）operating at 20 mA and 40 kV. The shape and size were analyzed with the help of JEM-100SX Transimission electron microscopy. The results show this perovskite-type oxide is spherical with the mean grain size of 25 nm and the dispersity of it is good. The influence of temperature on the sensitivity of sensors,gas sensors's selectivity and the response and recovery characteristics are tested at the optimum working temperature 310℃. The study of sensor's gas sensing characteristic shows that the sensitivities of HoFeO3 to 0. 5! C2H5OH is 103,which is 5 times of other tested gases,such as H2S、H2、SO2、gasoline and acetone. So the sensors based on HoFeO3 show good sensitivity and selectivity to C2H5OH. The response and reversion characteristic of sensor to 0. 5! ethanol at 310℃ is good too. The response time and recovery time are 12 and 7s,respectively.
