Abstract

The aim of this work is to study the effect of Sr substitution on the redox properties and catalytic activity of La2−x Sr x NiO4 (x = 0.0–1.2) for NO decomposition. Results suggest that the x = 0.6 sample shows the highest activity. The characterization (TPD, TPR, etc.) of samples indicates that the x = 0.6 sample possesses suitable abilities in both oxidation and reduction, which facilitates the proceeding of oxygen desorption and NO adsorption. At temperature below 700°C, the oxygen desorption is difficult, and is the rate-determining step of NO decomposition. With the increase of reaction temperature (T > 700°C), the oxygen desorption is favorable and, the active adsorption of NO on the active site (NO + V o + Ni2+ → NO-Ni3+) turns out to be the rate-determining step. The existence of oxygen vacancy is the prerequisite condition for NO decomposition, but its quantity does not relate much to the activity.
