Abstract
Decreasing the ignition temperature of soot combustion is a key of the improved catalyst performances, but a much lower concentration of oxygen from gasoline vehicle exhaust makes the research of the catalyst extremely challenging. Improving the adsorption and activation of oxygen molecules on the catalyst surface and the effective migration rate of active oxygen species are the key factors to enhance soot oxidation. In this work, Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-re catalyst was synthesized by synergistically adjusting CeO2-ZrO2 pore structure and Pt chemical state, as a result, the conversion temperature (T50, 50% soot was oxidized) was reduced by 113 ℃ in 1% O2/N2. The pore structure of CeO2-ZrO2 was optimized by copolymerization microsphere template assisted method, and better soot-contact efficiency and intrinsic properties were obtained, resulting in a higher availability of reactive oxygen species. In addition, adjusting Pt chemical state by using the liquid phase reduction method is significant for the adsorption and activation of oxygen molecules and catalytic cycle of soot oxidation. Structure-activity relationship studies showed that soot oxidation performance is highly related to the initial oxidation state of Pt and pore structure in 1% O2/N2. Better soot-contact efficiency, improved intrinsic properties and the existence of metallic Pt are responsible for the higher soot oxidation activity of Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-re catalyst.
