Abstract

Highly dispersed MnOx–CeO2 and MnOx–ZrO2–CeO2 catalysts for the carbon monoxide oxidation reaction are synthesized. Using the XRF and the XRD methods, the formation of the Mn–Ce–O and the Mn–Zr–Ce–O solid solutions, as well as the presence of Mn2O3 and Mn3O4, is established. The specific surface area of the synthesized materials is 121 and 155 m2/g, respectively, the particle size being equal to 8–10 nm. The X-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectra is deconvolved and the relative content of the ionic forms of Mn, the lattice oxygen Oα, and the high-energy forms Oβ are determined. Upon studying the thermal stability of catalysts, it is established that the two-component systems have low thermal stability, causing the particle size to increase to 32 nm, the specific surface area to decrease to 29 m2/g, and thus the catalytic activity to deteriorate. For MnOx–ZrO2–CeO2, less significant changes take place: the particle size is 27 nm, the specific surface area is 43 m2/g, and thus its catalytic activity is higher than that for MnOx–CeO2. Investigation of the state of the components of the near-surface layer of catalysts after isothermal aging makes it possible to ascertain the change in content of ionic forms of Mn, Oα, and Oβ. It is concluded that doping of the two-component MnOx–CeO2 systems with the Zr4+ ions is expedient. The resulting ZrO2–MnOx–CeO2 solid solution is more resistant to high temperatures.
