Abstract

A CO oxidation catalyst that includes Pt clusters applied on nanosized TiN supports with a particle size of 18 and 36 nm has been synthesized. The catalyst has been studied using TEM, X-ray powder diffraction, and XPS methods. It has been found that platinum clusters formed on the support surface are covered with a mixture of platinum and platinum oxide. The coherent scattering range of the Pt cluster is close to 8 nm on a support with titanium nitride particles of 18 nm. The catalytic properties in the reaction of CO oxidation at 295 K and low CO concentrations (<100 mg/m3) have been examined. It has been found that when the platinum content in the catalyst is 9 to 15 wt %, the CO oxidation rate is 120 times higher than that on platinum black with a specific surface area of 30 m2/g. The catalysts are promising for use in catalytic systems for air purification.
