Abstract: | Based on the structure of characterization of Au/Fe2O3 catalysts, the mechanism of gold activation in supported gold catalysts was proposed as follow: The possible catalytic active state is the partially oxidized gold (Au+) with unoccupied outer d orbitals, similar to the outer d orbital structure of Pt. Thus "inert" gold can become very active for CO oxidation. |
