Furthermore, the prepared CeO2 was used as the support to prepare CuO/CeO2 catalysts via the wet impregnation method. The samples were characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）, high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）, and temperatureprogrammed reduction by H2 （H2-TPR）. The catalytic properties of the CuO/CeO2 catalysts for lowtemperature CO oxidation were studied using a microreactor-GC system. The crystal size of CeO2-A was much smaller than that of CeO2-B, and the corresponding copper oxide catalysts exhibited higher catalytic activity than that of the CeO2-B-supported catalysts under the same reaction conditions. The alcohothermal mechanism indicated that KOH plays a key role in determining the physicochemical and catalytic properties of ceria-based materials.展开更多

The influence of the calcination temperature on the chemical compositions and catalytic performance of CuO/CeO_2 catalysts were studied. It was found that CuO/CeO_2 catalysts exhibit excellent CO oxidation activity and selectivity,and the complete removal of CO is attained when the catalysts are calcined at appropriate temperatures. XRD, TPR and XPS results indicate that CuO/CeO_2 catalysts exhibit higher catalytic performance in CO selective oxidation due to the strong interaction between copper oxide and cerium dioxide, which promotes the dispersion and hydrogen reduction activity of copper.展开更多

A single-step co-precipitation method was used for preparation of a series of yttrium doped CuO/CeO2 catalysts with yttrium content in the range of 0-5wt.%. Properties of the obtained samples were characterized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Raman spectroscopy, H2-TPR, cyclic voltammetry （CV） and the BET method. The results revealed that catalytic activity was increased with the yttrium content at first, but then decreased with the further increase of yttrium content. Herein, CuO/CeO2 catalyst doped with 2wt.% of yttrium showed the highest catalytic activity （CO conversion reaches 93.4% at 250 ℃） and thermal stability for WGS reaction. The catalytic activity was correlated with the surface area, the area of peak γ of H2-TPR profile （i.e., the reduction of surface copper oxide （crystalline forms） interacted with surface oxygen vacancies on ceria）, and the area of peak C2 and A1 （Cu^0→←Cu^2＋ in cyclic voltammetry process）, respectively. Besides, Raman spectra provided evidences for a synergistic Cu-Ovacancy interaction, and it was indicated that doping yttrium may facilitate the formation of oxygen vacancies on ceria.展开更多
