Popis: | Porous and homogeneous 5 wt.% Pd/CeO2-ZrO2-Al2O3 cryogels (Ce/Zr = 1 and Ce/Al = 0–1/2) were synthesized by one-pot sol-gel processing and subsequent freeze drying, and catalysis of CO oxidation was investigated after heating at high temperatures. It was revealed that palladium dispersion and oxygen storage capacity (OSC) were the essential factors to control the CO oxidation activity. It was also revealed that optimized Ce/Al ratio was 1/4 to obtain the highest activity. When the ratio was smaller than the value, stabilization of palladium by ceria was retarded and sufficient OSC was not obtained owing to insufficiency of ceria. Whereas when the ratio was larger than the value, performance of alumina as a diffusion barrier for retarding coagulation and grain growth of the solid solution deteriorated owing to its insufficiency. As a result, encapsulation of palladium into the solid solution and/or sintering of the metal proceeded, which consequently lowered palladium dispersion and OSC. |
