Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) material MIL-53(Al) with high thermal stability was prepared by a solvothermal method, serving as a support material of cerium doped copper catalyst (Ce-Cu)/MIL-53(Al) material for CO oxidation with high catalytic activity. The catalytic performance between the (Cu-Ce)/MIL-53(Al) and the Cu/MIL-53(Al) catalytic material was compared to understand the catalytic behavior of the catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), N2 adsorption- desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The characterization results showed that MIL-53(Al) had good stability and high surface areas, the (Ce-Cu) nanoparticles on the MIL-53(Al) support was uniform. Therefore, the heterogeneous catalytic composite materials (Ce-Cu)/MIL-53(Al) catalyst exhibited much higher activity than that of the Cu/MIL- 53(Al) catalyst in CO oxidation test, with 100% conversion at 80 °C. The results reveal that (Cu-Ce)/MIL- 53(Al) is the suitable candidate for achieving low temperature and higher activity CO oxidation catalyst of MOFs.
