Well-dispersed Pt NCs were facilely synthesized at room temperature by a photo-reduction process in lytropic liquid crystal(LCs). Surface tuning of the carbon layers on Pt/TiO2 catalysts was achieved by varying the calcination atmospheres(in argon, air, and oxygen) and characterized by XPS and HRTEM. The influence of the coated carbon layers on the catalytic activity of catalysts is investigated by CO oxidation reaction which presented the following ranks: C-Pt/TiO2-O2〉 C-Pt/TiO2-Air 〉 C-Pt/TiO2-Ar. It is found that the carbon layer coating can stabilize the Pt NCs and enable them anti-sintering at high temperature. This finding provides new insight into understanding the C-Pt/TiO2 ternary system for tuning their catalytic performance.展开更多
