Abstract

AbstractNitrous oxide (NO) adsorption and the CO + NO reaction have been investigated on bulk and alumina‐supported Pd catalysts by XPS at various temperatures between 25 and 300°C with PNO in the 0.5–5.0 (×10−2) atm range and PCO = 5 × 10−3 atm. A catalytic reactor settled in the preparation chamber coupled to the spectrometer allows surface changes occurring under catalytic conditions on these catalysts to be characterized. Various nitrogen‐containing species have been detected, which depend on the oxidation state of Pd. The results have been explained tentatively in the light of a mechanism proposed for NO transformation. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
