Abstrakt: The metal-support interfaces between metals and oxide supports have long been studied in catalytic applications, thanks to their significance in structural stability and efficient catalytic activity. The metal-rare earth oxide interface is particularly interesting because these early transition cations have high electrophilicity, and therefore good binding strength with Lewis basic molecules, such as H 2 O. Based on this feature, here we design a highly efficient composite Ni-Y 2 O 3 catalyst, which forms abundant active Ni-NiO x -Y 2 O 3 interfaces under the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction condition, achieving 140.6 μmol CO g cat -1 s -1 rate at 300 °C, which is the highest activity for Ni-based catalysts. A combination of theory and ex/in situ experimental study suggests that Y 2 O 3 helps H 2 O dissociation at the Ni-NiO x -Y 2 O 3 interfaces, promoting this rate limiting step in the WGS reaction. Construction of such new interfacial structure for molecules activation holds great promise in many catalytic systems.
