Synergistic effect of palladium and oxygen vacancies in the Pd/perovskite catalysts synthesized by the spc method

摘要

A series of oxygen deficient perovskite supported palladium catalysts were prepared by the “solid phase crystallization"(spc) method and investigated with XRD, TPR, TPD, TEM, XPS, BET analysis and CO oxidation. It was found that Pd/perovskite catalysts synthesized by the spc method were more active for CO oxidation than the calcined LaCo 0 95 Pd 0 05 O 3, where Pd dispersed in the solid solution. H 2 reducing treatment in the spc method could yield not only high dispersed fine Pd particles on the perovskite surface but also oxygen deficient structure. In these perovskite supported Pd catalysts, oxygen vacancies adsorbed, activated and supplied oxygen to the active Pd sites, where the oxidation occurred with adsorbed CO. The high activities were due to the cooperative action of Pd and oxygen vacancies.
