摘要
CuO-CeO2 nanocomposites were prepared by coprecipitation of nitrates at various pH values and used for preferential oxidation (PROX) of CO in a hydrogen rich gas. Precipitation at high pH led to a high concentration of CeO2 nucleation and abundant active Cu-i sites (Cu atoms at interface between CuO and CeO2) on prepared nanocomposites. The reducibility of (CuO)-O-i and its turnover frequency for PROX were increased with the pH during preparation of nanocomposites. Catalysts coprecipitated at pH >= 12 exhibited excellent CO conversion (>99%) and distinguished CO selectivity (88%) for PROX at a low reaction temperature of 125 degrees C. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
