Abstract: | The physico-chemical properties of passivated -Mo2N have been investigated. The material showed high activities for NO direct decomposition: nearly 100% NO conversion and 95% N2 selectivity were achieved at 450![thinsp](/content/m6212210l38r731h/xxlarge8201.gif) C. The amount of O2 taken up by -Mo2N increased with temperature rise and reached 3133.9 mol g–1 at 450![thinsp](/content/m6212210l38r731h/xxlarge8201.gif) C; we conclude that there formation of Mo2OxNy occurred. This oxygen-saturated -Mo2N material was catalytically active: NO conversion and N2 selectivity were 89 and 92% at 450![thinsp](/content/m6212210l38r731h/xxlarge8201.gif) C. We found that by means of H2 reduction at 450![thinsp](/content/m6212210l38r731h/xxlarge8201.gif) C, Mo2OxNy could be reduced back to -Mo2N and the oxidation/reduction cycle is repeatable; such a behaviour and the high oxygen capacity (3133.9 mol g–1) of -Mo2N suggest that -Mo2N is a promising catalytic material for automobile exhaust purification. |
