Reversible low-temperature redox activity and selective oxidation catalysis derived from the concerted activation of multiple metal species on Cr and Rh-incorporated ceria catalysts

Abstract

The ceria-based catalyst incorporated with Cr and a trace amount of Rh (Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz) was prepared and the reversible redox performances and oxidation catalysis of CO and alcohol derivatives with O2 at low temperatures (<373 K) were investigated. In situ X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS), high angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM)-EDS/EELS and temperature-programmed reduction/oxidation (TPR/TPO) revealed the structures and redox mechanisms of three metals in Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz: dispersed Rh3+δ species (<1 nm) and Cr6−γO3−x nanoparticles (∼1 nm) supported on CeO2 in Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz were transformed to Rh nanoclusters, Cr(OH)3 species and CeO2−x with two Ce3+-oxide layers at the surface in a concerted activation manner of the three metal species with H2.
