Phase analysis and oxygen strorage capacity of ceria-lanthana-based TWC promoters prepared by sol-gel routes
2002
Ceria–lanthana-based promoters of three-way catalysts are synthesized by two different sol–gel routes, involving nitrate precursors. The oxygen uptake ability of these compounds is measured by O2 chemisorption. The specific surface area is determined by N2 adsorption (BET). X-ray diffraction data are analyzed by Rietveld refinement, demonstrating that lanthanum forms solid solution with CeO2; its total amount in ceria depends on the competitive formation of La–Al mixed oxides and on the synthetic method. The O2 uptake ability is essentially determined by the La content in the ceria–lanthana solid solution, while it is independent on the surface area and on the CeO2 particle size. The O2 upt…
Synthesis of fluorinated oxadiazoles with gelation and oxygen storage ability
2012
A new family of fluorinated low molecular weight (LMW) gelators has been synthesized through SNAr substitution of 5-polyfluoroaryl-3-perfluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles with glycine ester. The obtained compounds give thermal and pH-sensitive hydrogels or thermo-reversible organogels in DMSO. Oxygen solubility studies showed the ability to maintain high oxygen levels in solution and in gel blend with plate counter agar (PCA).
Positive effect of the fluorine moiety on the oxygen storage capacity of UiO-66 metal–organic frameworks
2016
Two series of fluorine-containing UiO-66 have been synthesized, replacing the 1,4-benzodicarboxylic acid linker with increasing amounts of 2-fluoro-1,4-benzodicarboxylic acid or 2-trifluoromethyl-1,4-benzodicarboxylic acid. The capacity to store oxygen and nitrogen within these MOFs has been tested, which revealed a positive correlation between the fluorine content and the oxygen storage performances.
Metal-support interaction and redox behavior of Pt(1 wt %)/Ce0.6Zr0.4O2
2006
The catalyst Pt(1 wt %)/Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2) is studied by CO-temperature programmed reduction (CO-TPR), isothermal oxygen storage complete capacity (OSCC), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at the Pt L(III) edge, and in situ X-ray diffraction (in situ XRD), with the aim of elucidating the role of supported metal in CO oxidation by ceria-based three-way catalysts (TWC). The redox behavior of Pt(1 wt %)/Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2) is compared to that of bare ceria-zirconia. OSCC of redox-aged Pt/ceria-zirconia is twice that of bare ceria-zirconia, and the maximum of CO consumption occurs at a temperature about 300 K lower than redox-aged ceria-zirconia. XAS analysis allows one to evidence the formati…
