Abstract
The investigation into the development of an active transition-metal oxide catalyst with controllable morphology for the degradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is a subject of considerable importance and warrants further exploration. In this study, ZIF-67 was prepared and employed as a sacrificial template, with varying quantities of Cu ions incorporated to synthesize layered copper-cobalt double oxide (CuCo-LDO) featuring a modifiable surface state. A comprehensive characterization of the CuCo-LDO catalysts was conducted, encompassing structural properties, morphology, surface chemical state, and redox properties, utilizing a range of analytical techniques. Subsequent evaluations included testing the catalytic activity for toluene oxidation and assessing stability performance. The results revealed that differing Cu contents played a pivotal role in inducing changes in the morphology and structure of CuCo-LDO, thereby significantly influencing its oxidation activity towards toluene. Notably, the flower-like structure of 3CuCo-LDO (Cu% = 20.14 wt.%) exhibited outstanding toluene oxidation activity attributable to its unique structure and composition. This research contributes novel insights to the design of highs-performance catalysts targeting volatile organic compounds.
