采用沉积沉淀法制备了CO低温氧化Au/α-Fe2O3催化剂,利用X射线衍射(XRD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、BET比表面测定、程序升温还原(H2-TPR)等表征技术,对比了制备过程pH值的微小变化、焙烧及光线照射对催化剂结构及催化性能的影响,探明了Au/α-Fe2O3催化剂的活性物种。结果表明,110℃处理的Au/α-Fe2O3催化剂表面同时存在Au^3+、Au^0以及过渡态Au^δ+(0〈δ〈1),它们对CO氧化的活性顺序为Au^3+〉Au^δ+〉Au^0;pH值为8条件下制备的催化剂Au^3+含量高、比表面积大,催化性能最好:高温焙烧使氧化态金还原的同时也使载体比表面积严重缩小,催化活性显著下降:紫外线照射可以引起Au^3+的逐渐还原以及Au^0颗粒的生长,其催化失活作用弱于高温焙烧。
Au/α-Fe2O3 catalysts for CO oxidation were prepared by chemical coprecipitation at different pH values, and the as-prepared samples were calcined or UV (2=254 nm) irradiated, respectively. The structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), N2 adsorption and desorption analysis (BET) and temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), and the active Au species on the catalysts was investigated. The results show that Au^3+, Au^δ+ (0〈δ〈1) and Au^0 coexist on the surface of Au/α-Fe2O3 catalysts treated at 110 ℃, and their activity order is Au3+〉 Aua+〉 Au~. The sample prepared at pH=8 shows the best catalytic performance since it has more Au^3+ species and high specific surface area. High temperature calcination can cause serious deactivation due to the reduction of Au^3+ and Au^δ+ species, together with the decrease of the specific surface area of α-Fe2O3. UV irradiation can also cause the reduction of oxidative Au species and the growth of Au particle.
