Abstract

The surface chemical states of the perovskite-type compounds, strontium doped lanthanum cobalt oxides (La1−x Sr x CoO3), have been investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Catalytic oxidations of both methane and CO have also been investigated using flow methods. The chemical composition of the surface of La1−x Sr x CoO3 was very different from that in the bulk, which was measured by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRFS). The catalytic activity of La1−x Sr x CoO3 increased with an increase in the quantity of cobalt atoms on the surface.
