XRD, BET, and oxygen storage capacity (OSC) investigations were performed on samples aged at 750, 900, and 1050 ℃. It was observed that BET surface area and OSC showed a marked decrease in CeO2 aged at high temperature, and the erystallite size showed an obvious increase. The CZO samples consist of cubic- and tetragonal crvstal phases, and their crystallite size increase rapidly when aged at high temperature. The CZYO samples consist of single crystal phase when the content of Y exceeds 0.15 mol, and their erystallite size increases slowly during high-temperature aging. It is concluded that additive Y can stabilize the performance of CZYO oxides. In the aged CZO and CZYO mixed-oxide systems, addition of a small amount of precious metals (Pt, Pd, Rh) increased the rate of reduction and led to an obvious improvement in OSC. OSC of CZO and CZYO with precious metals are related to their composition and the type of precious metal.展开更多

The optimum measurement condition was at a frequency of 0.1 Hz with the inlet gas-flow sequence CO (5S)→O2(5S)→CO→O2 and a flow rate of 300 ml·min^-1. Under this condition, similar regular square wave in the inlet and outlet of the reactor was obtained to guarantee the reliability of the dynamic OSC results. The dynamic OSC performance of the CeO2 and Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 mixed oxide prepared using the citric sol-gel method was studied at the optimum measurement condition with focus on both quantitative and qualitative analyses, The results reveal distinctly that Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 had better dynamic OSC performance because of its higher oxygen migration rate than CeO2. Under dynamic conditions, two CO2 production peaks occurred corresponding to the CO pulse and the O2 pulse, respectively, during the entire cycle. The intensity and ratio between the two CO2 productions were highly influenced by temperature and frequency indicating complex surface phenomena during the oxygen storage/release process, As a result, this set-up can be applied to the evaluation of ceria-based material on the OSC performance.展开更多

Pr2O3 possesses the similar oxygen storage properties to CeO2, and its dynamic oxygen storage capacity is 14.9 mumol.g(-1). The studies on TPD Of O-2, H2O and CO and TPR show that Pr2O3 provides more active surface oxygen species and at a lower temperature than CeO2. It is suggested that Pr2O3 can be a well candidate as an oxygen storage component in automobile three-way catalyst.展开更多

The oxygen storage capacity (OSC) measurements at 500℃ were performed under transient and stationary reaction conditions. All the curves of CO2 evolution during CO-O2 cycles presented a bimodal shape. The fast peak was primarily the result of the reaction of CO with the oxygen from the oxides, which was mainly determined by the nature of the material The sec- ond peak was mostly related to the CO2 adsorption behavior and was highly influenced by the surface area and the number of surface active sites. As a result, OSC activity of the samples followed in the order of CZC 〉 CCZ 〉 ZCC=CZP.展开更多

The as-obtained Pr modi- fied CeO2-ZrO2 was impregnated with 1 wt.% Pd to prepare the catalysts. The structure and reducibility of the fresh and hydrother- really aged catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), CO chemi- sorption and H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR). The oxygen storage capacity (OSC) was evaluated with CO serving as probe gas. Effects of impregnated Pr on the structure and oxygen storage capacity of catalysts were investigated. The results showed that the aged Pr-impregnated samples had much higher OSC and better reducibility than the unmodified ones. The scheme of structural evolutions of the catalysts with and without Pr was also established. Partial of the impregnated Pr diffused into the bulk of CeO2-ZrO2 during ageing, which inhibited the sintering, and increased the amount of oxygen vacancies in CeO2-ZrO2 support. Furthermore, those impregnated Pr species which covered on the surface of the support obstructed the strong metal-support interaction between Pd and Ce so as to reduce the encapsulation of Pd as well as the back spill-over of the oxygen during the catalytic process.展开更多

However, traditional CeO_2-ZrO_2 materials are easy to sinter at high temperature, which causes a sharp decrease of OSC. In this paper,La^(3+) , Nd^(3+) and Y^(3+) are chosen as dopants for CeO_2-ZrO_2 to improve anti-sintering and OSC properties.The Ce_(0.17) Zr_(0.73) La_(0.02) Nd_(0.04) Y_(0.04) O_2 powders(CZLNY) were prepared by co-precipitation method. The effects of grain sizes with different mixed chlorinated solution concentrations on performances were investigated. X-ray diffraction(XRD) and transmission electron micrograph(TEM) were performed to calculate the grain sizes of CZLNY. The specific surfaces, OSC and redox properties were investigated by N_2 adsorption/desorption and temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR). The results show that introducing La^(3+) , Nd^(3+) and Y^(3+) into CeO_2-ZrO_2 lattice can improve the stability of phase structure and anti-sintering ability. Moreover, low concentration of mixed chlorinated solution remarkably improves structural and textural properties of CZLNY. Relatively large fresh grain exhibits superior thermal stability and OSC under the condition of being calcined at 800℃ for 3 h. The specific surface and OSC are42.37 m^2/g and 333.13 mmol/g after calcining at 1000℃ for 10 h, respectively. This is owing to the low sintered driving force of large grain and long-range migration energy of large pores during the sintering process, which are beneficial to the stability of structure in CZLNY materials.展开更多

The Pd-only three-way catalyst (TWC) was obtained by incipient wetness impregnation with 0.5 wt.% Pd loading. The structural and oxygen handling properties were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and the dynamic oxygen storage capacity (DOSC). The introduction of Co into ceria-zirconia lattice strongly modified the mobility of oxygen and enhanced the DOSC performance. Pd-only TWC based on the Co0.1Ce0.6Zr0.3Ox support exhibited superior activity for water-gas shift and steam reforming and ampli- fied amplitude of stoichiometric window.展开更多
