Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) studies of Pt/WO x /ZrO2 catalysts over the temperature range of 5–330 K are reported. Two sets of ESR signals, one with g =1.98 and g =1.96 and the other with g x =1.39, g y =1.70 and g z =1.54 are identified as intrinsic signals from the W5+ and Zr3+ states, respectively, formed in the sample. These signals are absent in samples without Pt. Studies on samples annealed at 773 K showed possible electron transfer between the W5+ and Zr3+ states in which the concentration of one state increases at the expense of the other.
