Abstract

In this work we present an overview of the photo-reaction of ethanol over the surface of TiO2 (110) single crystal under photo-excitation and compare it to that over Au/TiO2 nano-particle. Over rutile TiO2(110) surface ethanol is present mainly in ethoxide (CH3CH2O(a)) form at 300K as evidenced by the presence of XPS C1s peak at 286.5 eV due to the -CH2-O(a) function; (a) for adsorbed. DFT computation of the same system indicated that the surface coverage is 50% or less in line with previous experimental results [1]. Exposing a pre-dosed surface to UV light in presence of oxygen resulted in the formation of acetaldehyde (CH3CHO(g); (g) for gas phase) with the extent of reaction depending on the square root of the O2 pressure in the 10-10 - 10-6torr range. Over the Au/TiO2 powder system we have focused the attention on the production of hydrogen as the oxidation of ethanol of ethanol to acetaldehyde has been previously studied [2]. The reaction is found to be sensitive to the polymorph nature of TiO2 with anatase showing two orders of magnitudes higher activity than rutile. We have also addressed the TiO2 particle size effect on the reaction and found that the TiO2 particles, in the 150 to 10 nm range, to have the same reactivity.
二氧化钛上乙醇光制氢:表面科学与催化研究
在这项工作中,我们概述了乙醇在光激发下在TiO2(110)单晶表面上的光反应,并将其与在Au/TiO2纳米颗粒上的光反应进行了比较。在300K时,金红石型TiO2(110)表面乙醇主要以乙氧化物(CH3CH2O(a))形式存在,由于-CH2-O(a)功能,在286.5 eV处存在XPS C1s峰;(a)吸附。同一系统的DFT计算表明,表面覆盖率小于等于50%,与前人的实验结果一致[1]。在有氧气存在的情况下,将预先给药的表面暴露在紫外光下会形成乙醛(CH3CHO(g));(g)气相)反应程度取决于10-10 - 10-6torr范围内O2压力的平方根。在Au/TiO2粉末体系中,我们将注意力集中在氢气的生产上,因为之前已经研究了乙醇氧化乙醇生成乙醛的过程[2]。该反应对TiO2的多晶型性质很敏感,锐钛矿的活性比金红石高两个数量级。我们还研究了TiO2粒径对反应的影响,发现TiO2颗粒在150 ~ 10 nm范围内具有相同的反应活性。
