Ag/AC catalysts, after reduction in H2 at low temperatures (≤200 ℃) following heat treatment in He at 200 ℃ (He200H200), exhibited the best catalytic properties. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) results indicated that silver oxides were produced during heat treatment in He at 200 ℃ which were reduced to metal silver nanoparticles in H2 at low temperatures (≤200 ℃), simultaneously generating the adsorbed water/OH. CO conversion was enhanced 40% after water treatment following heat treatment in He at 600 ℃. These results imply that the metal silver nanoparticles are the active species and the adsorbed water/OH has noticeable promotion effects on CO oxidation. However, the promotion effect is still limited compared to gold catalysts under the similar conditions, which may be the reason of low selectivity to CO oxidation in PROX over silver catalysts. The reported Ag/AC-S-He catalyst after He200H200 treatment displayed similar PROX of CO reaction properties to Ag/SiO2. This means that Ag/AC catalyst is also an efficient low-temperature CO oxidation catalyst.展开更多

In this work, we investigated the plane growth kinetics of Mg(OH)2 for catalytic application in preferential CO oxidation. Nanoflakes were synthesized through hydrothermal method. The morphology and structure of nanoflakes were characterized by TEM, SEM, and XRD. By varying the reaction temperature and time, Mg(OH)2 nanoflakes un- derwent an anisotropic growth. Benefited from the Ostwald ripening process, the thickness of nanoflake corre- sponding to the (110) plane of Mg(OH)2 was tuned from 7.6 nm to 24.0 nm, while the diameter of (001) plane in- creased from 18.2 nm to 30.2 nm. The grain growth kinetics for the thickness was well described in terms of an equation, D5= 7.65+ 6.9 × 10^8exp(-28.14/RT). After depositing Pt nanoparticles onto these Mg(OH)2 nanoflakes, an excellent catalytic performance was achieved for preferential CO oxidation in H2-rich streams with a wide temper- ature window from 140 ℃ to 240 ℃ for complete CO conversion due to the interaction between Pt and hydroxyl groups. The findings reported here would be helpful in discovering novel catalysts for application of proton ex- change membrane fuel cells.展开更多
