Popis: It is still a great challenge to develop robust sintering-resistant automotive exhaust catalysts due to the harsh working temperature, varying from ambient to >1000 °C. Here we report a strategy to simultaneously control the sintering process of both particle migration and coalescence (PMC) and Ostwald ripening (OR) by introducing non-oxides MPO4 (M = Al, Ce, La) to the Pt–Al2O3 catalyst. The effects of the mix ratio, type of phosphates and their particle size on the catalysts' sintering-resistance performances were investigated. As a result, the catalyst of Pt–Al2O3 mixed with ball-milled LaPO4 (LaPO4mill) at a ratio of 2 : 1 showed the best sintering resistance. The outstanding sintering resistance of Pt–Al2O3–LaPO4mill was attributed to: 1) the strong interaction between Pt and the small-sized LaPO4, which induced an active Pt–O–La interface, 2) the mutual reinforced dual-supports with a high surface area, and 3) the confinement effect of the slim nanowire-shaped LaPO4 grains.
