Abstract
The surface states of a Cu-Pd nanoparticles supported on SiO2 was investigated by probing the states of adsorbed CO observed by in situ infrared (IR) spectroscopic examination. Here the investigation was carried out on Pd (10 at%)-containing Cu (10 wt%)-supported SiO2, where the amount of adsorbed CO was maximum, indicating the effective activation of Cu metals by the addition of Pd. Particularly, under the atmosphere of relatively low CO pressures (below 10 Pa), the in situ IR spectra show the dynamic changes in the state of adsorbed CO originated from the rearrangement of surface atoms induced by CO adsorption over silica supported Cu-Pd bimetal nanoparticles. The details of changes in the surface states induced by CO adsorption are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Applied Catalysis A: General publishes original papers on all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields, with an emphasis onnew understanding of catalysts and catalytic reactions, new catalytic materials, new techniques, and new processes, especially those that have potential practical implications.
Papers that report results of a thorough study or optimization of systems or processes that are well understood, widely studied, or minor variations of known ones are discouraged. Authors should include statements in a separate section "Justification for Publication" of how the manuscript fits the scope of the journal in the cover letter to the editors. Submissions without such justification will be rejected without review.
