The catalytic properties and characterization of CeO2, CuO/CeO2 and Cu/CeO2 catalysts were examined by means of a microreactor-GC system, HRTEM, XRD, TPR and XPS techniques. The results show that CuO has not catalytic activity and the activity of CeO2 is quite low for CO oxidation. However, the catalytic activity of CuO/CeO2 and Cu/ CeO2 catalysts increases significantly. Furthermore, the activity of CuO/CeO2 is higher than that of Cu/CeO2 catalysts.展开更多

The results indicate that the BET surface areas of the catalysts are increased in varying degrees due to the presence of ZrO2. With increasing ZrO2 content, the pore size distribution is centered on 1.9 nm. ZrO2 can efficiently restrain the growth of Cu crystal particles. The appropriate amount of ZrO2 in the Cu/CeO2 catalysts can help the catalyst keep better copper dispersion in the WGS reaction, which can lead to both higher catalytic activity and better thermal stability. When ZrO2 content is 10% (atom fraction), Cu/CeO2-Zr02 catalyst reaches a CO conversion rate of 73.7% at the reaction temperature of 200℃.展开更多

Using a simple ball-milling method and CeO_(2) support, we prepared a high-performance CuO-ZnO-P-Sn/CeO_(2) catalyst by integrating highly dispersed multicomponent promoters of ZnO, Sn, and P with the active component CuO. This catalyst shows a significantly enhanced dimethyldichlorosilane selectivity because these promoters can substantially increase the Cu+ content and the formation of an active CuxSi phase. This work provides a new approach to efficiently designing Cu-based catalysts for the Rochow-Müller reaction.展开更多
