外部强制对CO催化氧化动力学影响的Monte Carlo模拟

利用Monte Carlo方法研究了外部强制过程对CO催化氧化反应过程中振荡动力学行为的影响规律。研究结果表明:通过矩形脉冲可以有效地调控振荡的动力学行为,在一定的脉冲振幅和脉冲宽度下,通过改变矩形脉冲的周期,CO催化氧化出现了短周期振荡、双峰振荡等不同的动力学行为。当强制过程即矩形脉冲的周期小于自发振荡的周期时,可以观察到短周期振荡行为,当矩形脉冲的周期大于自发振荡的周期时,可以观察到双峰振荡等动力学行为。振荡动力学的改变主要是因为强制振荡过程使得催化剂表面发生了从氧化态向还原态的转变。     

CO oxidation on a Cu(100) catalyst

The oxidation of carbon monoxide by molecular oxygen on a single crystal Cu(100) catalyst was studied at 458 K using reactant gas mixtures with CO/O₂ ratios of 2/1, 10/1 and 25/1 at a total pressure of 10 Torr. The catalytic activities were found to be strongly dependent upon the CO/O₂ ratio. Under stoichiometric reaction conditions (CO/O₂ = 2), the initial CO oxidation activity decreased sharply; with a highly reducing reaction mixture (CO/O₂ = 25), the initial activity gradually increased. These changes in catalytic activities with reactant gas mixture composition correlate with changes in surface composition, namely an increase in the surface oxygen coverage. Post-reaction TPD revealed the presence of a carbonate-like species which decomposed at ca. 630 K.     

Pt-Fe催化剂次表层Fe结构表面的CO氧化反应性能

利用紫外光电子能谱等表面科学方法,研究了Pt-Fe模型催化剂的次表层Fe结构[即Pt/Fe/Pt(111)结构]在不同条件下CO的吸附及其氧化反应。结果表明,Pt/Fe/Pt(111)结构在H_2气氛或者超高真空中是种稳定结构,最外层的原子与Pt(111)相同,是密排的铂原子面;但次表层的原子中有约0.5单层的铁原子,使费米边附近(0~2.0)e V的电子态密度明显低于Pt(111)表面,从而改变表面的CO和O_2吸附以及反应性能。程序升温的紫外光电子能谱结果显示,Pt/Fe/Pt(111)表面在(100~300)K,CO的吸附受温度的影响不明显,且O_2能够吸附、活化并使共吸附的CO发生氧化反应;当温度为300 K时,O_2无法在Pt/Fe/Pt(111)表面吸附、活化,所以CO氧化反应无法进行。Pt/Fe/Pt(111)结构虽然能有效地减弱CO的吸附从而避免CO毒化的问题,但O_2的吸附和活化也受到显著抑制并影响到一定条件下CO的氧化反应。     

In situ ATR-FTIR study of bulk CO oxidation on a polycrystalline Pt electrode

Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) measurements were conducted to analyze the electrochemical oxidation of CO dissolved in bulk electrolyte solution on a polycrystalline Pt electrode during linear sweep (cyclic) voltammetry (CV) in 1% and 100% CO-saturated 0.1 M HClO₄. A CO adlayer was first formed on Pt at 0.05 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) during CO bubbling in each electrolyte, followed by the CV measurement. In 1% CO-saturated 0.1 M HClO₄, a well-developed prepeak was found, showing an onset and a peak at around 0.25–0.3 V and 0.42 V, respectively. A major contribution of bridge-bonded CO, CO(B), to the prepeak is concluded based on a decrease in the corresponding band intensity. In 100% CO-saturated 0.1 M HClO₄, the onset of bulk CO oxidation takes place around 0.25–0.3 V, which is closely associated with a band intensity decrease of CO(B), whereas atop (linear) CO, CO(L), did not exhibit intensity change in this potential region. This suggests that vacant sites made available upon oxidation of CO(B) serve as active sites for bulk CO oxidation. The oxidation of CO(B) at such low potentials is interpreted in terms of an adsorption energy on Pt that is lower than that for CO(L) and also of the specific structure of an adlayer that consists of intermixed CO(L) and CO(B). The bulk CO oxidation becomes diffusion-limited by dissolved CO above ca. 0.72 V, where we observed hardly any infrared spectral features ascribed to reaction intermediates. During a negative-going scan back to 0.05 V from 1.2 V, a steep decrease of the bulk CO oxidation current takes place around 0.66 V, at which preferential adsorption of CO(L) is observed. A rigid CO(L) island formation is strongly suggested from its high CO stretching frequency vs. its very small initial coverage and from its subsequent dependence on potential, with a linear Stark shift characterized by a slope of −29 cm⁻¹/V. Such an island formation is in marked contrast to the adlayer structure with intermixed CO(L) and CO(B) initially formed at 0.05 V during CO bubbling. It is concluded that the Pt surface saturated with the CO adlayer formed initially at 0.05 V exhibits a low overpotential for bulk CO oxidation owing to its adlayer structure with intermixed atop and bridge-bonded CO.     

CO oxidation on a model Cu/Rh(100) catalyst

The reaction between carbon monoxide and molecular oxygen on a model Cu/Rh(100) bimetallic catalyst was studied at 455 K using a CO/O₂ = 2 reactant gas mixture at a total pressure of 10.0 Torr. A maximum in the initial activity was observed at a Cu coverage of 1.3 monolayers. However, the Cu overlayers were found to be unstable at the reaction conditions employed in that the Cu films interact strongly with surface oxygen to form three-dimensional CuO_x clusters. The morphological modifications were found to influence markedly the catalytic properties of the surface. However, the initial catalytic activity and surface morphology of the Cu films could be restored by flashing the sample to > 750 K.     

Flow-mediated spatial coupling during CO oxidation on a palladium-supported catalyst in a continuous-flow reactor

We consider the CO oxidation in a continuous-flow reactor containing N catalytic layers of zeolite-supported palladium. For the kinetics of the reaction in one layer, we adopt a model proposed by Slin’ko and Jaeger. Rather than studying non-uniform coverage patterns on the individual catalyst layers, we focus on the influence of flow-mediated spatial coupling between the layers provided by variations in the CO partial pressure, which are transmitted by the flow to the adjacent downstream layer. Using the flow rate and the CO partial pressure at the inlet of the reactor as bifurcation parameters, in a parameter range where the reaction in one layer exhibits relaxational rate oscillations, we find different modes of operation for the reactor. The bifurcation diagram for two layers exhibits synchronized behavior at large flow rate. At lower flow rate and small CO partial pressure, we obtain a drop of catalytic activity at the first layer followed by a compensating increase at the second layer. In the multi-layer system, an increasing number of layers works synchronously when the flow rate grows up. Then, downstream and upstream moving pulse trains of catalytic activity can develop.     

CO oxidation over promoted Pt catalysts

A study of CO oxidation by O₂ over Pt catalysts, promoted by MnO_x and CoO_x, is described. The activities of Pt/SiO₂, Pt/MnO_x/SiO₂ and Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂ are compared with commercial Pt/Al₂O₃, Pt/Rh/Al₂O₃ and Pt/CeO_x/Al₂O₃ catalysts. Since these catalysts differ in dispersion and weight loading of platinum, the turnover frequencies are also compared. The following order in activity in CO oxidation after a reductive pretreatment is found: Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂ > Pt/MnO_x/SiO₂, Pt/CeO_x/Al₂O₃ > Pt/Al₂O₃, Pt/Rh/Al₂O₃, Pt/SiO₂. Over Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂ CO is already oxidised at room temperature. Possible models to account for the high activity of Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂ in the CO/O₂ reaction are presented and discussed. Partially reduced metal oxides are necessary to increase the activity of the Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂, Pt/MnO_x/SiO₂ or Pt/CeO_x/Al₂O₃ catalysts. It was shown that mild ageing treatments did not affect the activity of the Pt/CoO_x/SiO₂ catalyst in CO oxidation.     

Kinetic modeling of CO oxidation on Pt/CeO2 in a gradientless reactor

Cerium oxide is a major additive in three-way catalysts used in emission control of automobile exhaust. Pt/CeO₂ was studied in order to better understand the role of ceria in promoting CO oxidation reaction. The kinetics of carbon monoxide oxidation on Pt/cerium oxide catalyst, was studied over the temperature range 100–170°C. Steady state kinetic measurements of CO oxidation were obtained in a computer controlled micro-CSTR reactor. Activation energies were reported to vary between 39·5 and 51·2 kJ mol⁻¹. At low concentrations of either reactant (CO, O₂) and total conversion, the catalyst exhibited multiple steady states, similar to the multiplicity behavior of Pt/Al₂O₃. The total conversion was reached at 120°C. In comparison, the total conversion at low reactant concentrations was reached at a temperature of 148°C for the alumina-supported catalyst. Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanisms gave a good fit to the data. However, no single rate expression could effectively describe the CO oxidation data over the whole concentration in the product of the CSTR reactor. The facts gathered indicate that oxygen adsorbed on interfacial Pt/Ce sites and ceria lattice oxygen provides oxygen for CO oxidation. Cerium oxide has been found to lower CO oxidation activation energy, enhance reaction activity and tends to suppress the usual CO inhibition effect.     

Oxygen induced direct hydrogenation of CO on Ni(100) surface

A trace amount of oxygen in H₂ promotes a new type of direct hydrogenation reaction of adsorbed CO on Ni(100) surface. The formation of H_xCO_y was suggested by high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) and thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). HREEL spectra showed the formation of surface hydroxyl (OH) and the C-H bonds of H_iCO_y species but no carbonyl (C=O) loss peak was detected although thermal desorption yielded large amount of CO. The H _x CO _y undergoes the decomposition at 400–450 K on the hex-OH Ni(100) surface, which yielded CO, CO₂, H₂ and H₂CO. It was confirmed that no C-H bond formation occurs on c(2 × 2)-O, p(2 × 2)-O Ni(100) and hex-OH Ni(100) as well as on clean Ni(100) surfaces. This fact indicates that the gas phase oxygen may induce the direct hydrogenation of CO to form H _x CO _y , which is analogous to the hydrogenation of O to form hex-OH onNi(100).

Influence of an Fe promoter on silica-supported Pt/SnO x catalysts used for low-temperature CO oxidation

Silica-supported Pt/SnO_x catalysts used for low-temperature CO oxidation have been prepared without and with an Fe promoter. Reaction studies demonstrate that the addition of the Fe promoter results in higher catalytic activity in the presence of 8 at% CO₂ and a lower decay rate. Ion scattering spectroscopy (ISS) has been used to examine the outermost atomic layers of the promoted and nonpromoted catalysts before and after activation by a reductive pretreatment. The nonpromoted catalyst exhibits agglomeration of the platinized tin oxide film exposing the catalytically inactive silica support. This agglomeration does not occur when Fe is present, and a large catalytically active surface area is maintained during the reduction.     

The mechanism of CO oxidation over Cu(110): Effect of CO gas energy

The effect of the temperature of gas phase CO upon the kinetics of the oxygen titration reaction: CO_g +O_a CO_2,g, has been studied. It is found that the reaction's rate is independant of CO gas temperature between 300 and 623 K. The activation energy (6.5 kcal/mole), dependence upon CO pressure (first-order), and independence upon oxygen coverage for 0.1 _o 0.4 are all independant of the CO gas phase temperature. This result rules out any Eley-Rideal type mechanism whereby CO reacts directly from the gas phase with an oxygen adatom without first being accommodated to the surface temperature in an absorbed state. The result is instead interpretable in terms of a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism.Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation Teacher-Scholar Fellowship.     

MnOx对Pt/CeZrO2催化剂在水汽和CO2环境下CO氧化的影响

以CeZrO₂固溶体为载体,发现MnO_x的添加能促进Pt/CeZrO₂催化剂的CO氧化性能,并研究了MnO_x含量对催化剂CO氧化活性及抗H₂O和CO₂性能的影响。结果表明,随着MnO_x含量增加,催化剂活性呈现先升高后降低的趋势,在MnO_x含量为0.5%（质量分数）时活性最佳。MnO_x的添加降低了Pt颗粒尺寸并影响催化剂还原性能从而促进反应活性。水汽和CO₂对Pt/CeZrO₂催化剂的CO氧化活性有抑制作用,而MnO_x的加入能显著提高催化剂的抗水汽和CO₂的能力。反应动力学结果表明,在Pt/CeZrO₂催化剂上,反应气中引入H₂O和CO₂后,CO的反应级数有明显升高,说明H₂O和CO₂在催化剂表面与CO竞争吸附,导致CO反应活性下降;而在Pt/MnO_x/CeZrO₂催化剂上,CO的反应级数略有升高,说明MnO_x的添加能有效抑制H₂O和CO₂与CO的竞争吸附,从而改善了催化剂的抗H₂O和CO₂性能。     

Kinetic study of CO oxidation on step decorated Pt(1 1 1) vicinal single crystal electrodes

In this work, surface modification at atomic level was applied to study the reactivity of step sites on platinum single crystal surfaces. Stepped platinum single crystal electrodes with (1 1 1) terraces separated by monoatomic step sites with different symmetry were decorated with irreversibly adsorbed adatoms, without blocking the terrace sites, and characterized in 0.1 M HClO₄ solution. The kinetics of CO oxidation on the different platinum single crystal planes as well as on the step decorated surfaces has been studied using chronoamperometry. The apparent rate constants, which were determined by fitting the experimental data to a mean-field model, decrease after the steps of platinum single crystal electrodes have been blocked by the adatoms. This behavior indicates that steps are active sites for CO oxidation. Tafel slopes measured from the potential dependence of the apparent rate constants of CO oxidation were similar in all cases. This result demonstrates that the electrochemical oxidation of the CO adlayer on all the surfaces follows the same Langmuir–Hinshelwood model, irrespectively of step modification.

Electronic,chemisorption and catalytic properties of Pd overlayers on Ru(100) probed by CO and O2 adsorption and reaction

We have employed UHV surface sensitive techniques together with CO and oxygen adsorption and reaction to link the chemical, electronic and structural properties of ultra-thin Pd films vapour-deposited on Ru(100). At low Pd coverage the properties of the Pd overlayer are considerably modified relative to the bulk-like properties exhibited by thick Pd films. A Pd coverage of 6 ML seems to mark a critical transition to bulk-like Pd behaviour. The strongest modifications in the Pd overlayer occur for coverages up to 2 ML and are exemplified by a reduction in the CO desorption temperature, a low DOS at Fermi level,E _f, and a lower activity toward CO oxidation.     

Millisecond step-scan FT-IR transmission spectroscopy under transient reaction conditions: CO oxidation over Pt/Al2O3

Time-resolved FT-IR spectra of CO oxidation over Pt/Al₂O₃ catalysts were collected in situ in transmission mode under transient reaction conditions. Using the step-scan acquisition mode of a commercial FT-IR spectrometer, time-resolution of a few milliseconds, compared to several hundred milliseconds in the normal rapid-scan mode, could be achieved. The experiments were triggered by reproducible oxygen gas pulses at constant temperature. Infrared light transmission, uniform heating and fast gas exchange were realized by pressing the pure catalyst powder onto a thin stainless steel wire mesh using a low volume reaction cell. By comparing the results of both acquisition modes, rapid-scan and step-scan, we will demonstrate, that it is possible, in a rather simple way, to investigate heterogeneously catalysed reactions under reaction conditions by means of FT-IR spectroscopy with time-resolutions down to a few milliseconds, and, in principle, lower. CO oxidation between 443 and 573 K over 1%Pt/γ-Al₂O₃ and 4%Pt/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts has been investigated as a test reaction. By using the high time-resolution of the step-scan acquisition mode we could obtain new details of the dynamics of the CO oxidation reaction over a supported Pt catalyst at high temperatures and 1 atm pressure.     

Catalytic CO oxidation reaction studies on lithographically fabricated platinum nanowire arrays with different oxide supports

Deep-ultraviolet lithography has been coupled with size-reduction and nanoimprint lithography to create high-density arrays of 20-nm wide platinum nanowires supported on oxide thin films of silica, alumina, zirconia, and ceria. These nanowire arrays have been used as two-dimensional platinum model catalyst systems to study the effects of support on catalytic activity during the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide. Strong support dependence is seen for both reaction turnover frequency and the measured activation energy. In addition, the stability of the nanowire arrays under reaction conditions shows support dependence.     

Spontaneous,random oscillations in the rate of CO oxidation over Pt/Alumina

This note reports a study of the effect of inert diluents alone or in mixtures on the well known spontaneous oscillations in CO oxidation over a Pt catalyst. Irregular oscillations were observed with a nitrogen diluent but not when this diluent was replaced by argon. Adding SF₆ at levels above 3.3% to argon induced oscillations, but when a similar level of CO₂ or H₂O was added to the argon diluent, oscillations were not found. Oscillations were observed only at the feed composition where one of the bifurcated steady states vanished.     

CO adsorption and correlation between CO surface coverage and activity/selectivity of preferential CO oxidation over supported Ag catalyst: an in situ FTIR study

In situ IR measurements for CO adsorption and preferential CO oxidation in H₂-rich gases over Ag/SiO₂ catalysts are presented in this paper. CO adsorbed on the Ag/SiO₂ pretreated with oxygen shows a band centered around 2169 cm^–1, which is assigned to CO linearly bonded to Ag⁺ sites. The amount of adsorbed CO on the silver particles (manifested by an IR band at 2169 cm^–1) depends strongly on the CO partial pressure and the temperature. The steady-state coverage on the Ag surface is shown to be significantly below saturation, and the oxidation of CO with surface oxygen species is probably via a non-competitive Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism on the silver catalyst which occurs in the high-rate branch on a surface covered with CO below saturation. A low reactant concentration on the Ag surface indicates that the reaction order with respect to Pco is positive, and the selectivity towards CO₂ decreases with the decrease of Pco. On the other hand, the decrease of the selectivity with the reaction temperature also reflects the higher apparent activation energy for H₂ oxidation than that for CO oxidation.
