Compared with Pt/γ-Al_2O_3 during catalytic oxidation of benzene, Pt/Fe Sn O（OH）5 showed better catalytic activity. After characterization of the catalysts by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS, XPS, BET, TGA and DTA, we found most Pt could be reduced to metallic state when the hydroxyl catalyst was used as supporter, and the metallic Pt in Pt/Fe Sn O（OH）5 was more active than the oxidized Pt in Pt/γ-Al_2O_3 in catalytic oxidation of VOCs. Pt/FeSnO（OH）_5 shows both good catalytic activity and high stability, which may be a promising catalyst. This study may also be helpful for the design and fabrication of new catalysts.展开更多
