Abstract
The interaction of the Pt/SiO2 model catalysts as thin films on the surface of tantalum supports with a mixture of NO + O2 (1: 1) was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The pressure of the reaction mixture was varied from 6 to 64 mbar, and the temperature was varied from room temperature to 500°C. Two types of the catalysts, in which the Pt/Si atomic ratios were ~0.1 and ~0.3 (0.1-Pt/SiO2 and 0.3-Pt/SiO2, respectively) according to the XPS data, were studied. In 0.1-Pt/SiO2, the particles of platinum predominantly had a size from 1 to 2.5 nm; a wide Pt particle size distribution in a range from 1 to 15 nm with a maximum at ~4 nm was characteristic of 0.3-Pt/SiO2. The interaction of all of the samples with NO + O2 at room temperature led to the dissolution of oxygen atoms in the bulk of platinum metal particles. As the reaction temperature was increased, PtO x platinum oxide particles were formed: from small Pt particles in 0.1-Pt/SiO2 at 300°C and from larger particles in 0.3-Pt/SiO2 at 400–500°C. It was established that the reactivity of platinum oxide particles toward hydrogen also depended on the particle size. The small particles of platinum oxide were converted into platinum metal under the action of hydrogen (16 mbar) at 300°C. The coarse particles of PtO x in the samples of 0.3-Pt/SiO2 were reduced much more easily starting with room temperature.
