Abstract

Ce x Sn1−x O2 metal oxides were prepared by a citrate method and used as supports for CuO/Ce x Sn1−x O2 catalysts. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution TEM, and temperature-programmed reduction techniques. XRD analysis indicated that the Ce x Sn1−x O2 samples maintain the fluorite structure and form a solid solution when x = 0.9 or 0.8. TPR analysis revealed that two kinds of copper species are present on the surface of the Ce x Sn1−x O2 support. The catalytic properties of the CuO/Ce x Sn1−x O2 catalysts were evaluated for low-temperature CO oxidation using a microreactor-GC system. The effects of Ce/Sn ratio and CuO loading on the catalytic performance were investigated. The results showed that these CuO/Ce x Sn1−x O2 catalysts are very active for low-temperature CO oxidation. The 650 °C calcined 7 wt%-CuO/Ce x Sn1−x O2 catalyst exhibited the highest catalytic activity.
