Abstract

ion

Core-shell structured materials with unique architecture have triggered great attention in catalysis because they confine the active sites into a specific environment and realize the complicated reactions in a single-pass by integrating different functional components into one. In this chapter, the applications of core-shell structured catalysts in C1 molecules (CO, CO2, and CH4) conversion are discussed. The variety of functionalities such as coke-resistance, confinement effect, and functional integration derived from the core-shell structured catalysts guarantees their wide application in C1 catalysis. For syngas (CO + H2) and CO2 conversions, core-shell structured catalysts with different functional components can realize the oriented conversion to target products. The coke-resistances and confinement effects in core-shell structured catalysts endow long-term stability of CH4 conversions (CH4 dry reforming and dehydroaromatization), in which high reaction temperature is needed to activate the inert C-H bond.
