Abstract

Nanocrystalline Pt–Ce/Al2O3 and Pt–Sn–Ce/Al2O3 catalysts with various Ce loading contents have been prepared by one-step flame spray pyrolysis (FSP). The resulting nanopowders consisted of spherical single-crystalline γ-alumina particles with as-prepared primary particle size of 8–10 nm. The N2 physisorption results revealed that all the flame-made catalysts contained only the macropore structure. The catalytic properties of the FSP-made catalysts were investigated in the dehydrogenation of propane. The results show that the Ce addition could greatly improve the catalytic performance and catalytic stability of the Pt–Ce/Al2O3 and Pt–Sn–Ce/γ-Al2O3 and optimal Ce loading contents was 1 wt%. This could be due to better Pt dispersion and change in metal/support interaction after Ce loading.
