Combined with the TPR results, it is concluded that the presence of noble metal Pt could significantly decrease the reduction temperature of Co_ 3 O_ 4 . In addition, the electrical conductance ratios of Co_ 3 O_ 4 and Pt/Co_ 3 O_ 4 under different atmospheres, which are in a consecutively changing sequence of hydrogen, oxygen and syngas, were also investigated. It is found that the cobalt oxides resulted from the oxidation of Co metal under oxygen atmosphere can be re-reduced by the syngas in the presence of Pt noble metal.
