Catalytic Activity of the Oxide Catalysts Based on Ni0.75Co2.25O4 Modified with Cesium Cations in a Reaction of N2O Decomposition

摘要

The Ni0.75Co2.25O4 catalysts were prepared by a coprecipitation method and modified with cesium cations by impregnation with a solution of cesium nitrate or cesium nitrate with citric acid and ethylene glycol additives (the Pechini method). The catalysts obtained were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis, the BET method, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction, and the temperatureprogrammed desorption of oxygen. The activity of the samples in a reaction of nitrous oxide decomposition was determined at temperatures of 200-300A degrees C, in particular, in the presence of oxygen and water in the reaction mixture. It was found that the use of the Pechini method for supporting Cs makes it possible to obtain a more active catalyst, as compared with that prepared by impregnation with cesium nitrate, at the same cesium content (2%) of the samples.
