Research Abstract |
In order to clarify the essential role and dynamic behavior of lattice oxygen species for oxidation reactions, the catalytic performance of CeO2-ZrO2 mixed oxides for CO and carbon oxidation reactions was investigated. It was found that lattice oxygen specie, which present in the bulk of CeO2-ZrO2 particles, can participate in the oxidation of CO as gaseous reactant. On the other hand, lattice oxygen species present at the surface vicinity of CeO2-ZrO2 particles was found to be highly reactive toward carbon as solid-type reactant. The mobility of oxygen species in the lattice of CeO2-ZrO2 was suspected to be an important factor to determine the catalytic performance for oxidation reactions. We proposed that the morphology of CeO2-ZrO2 particles is responsible for the reactivity of lattice oxygen species toward various reactants, leading to development of highly active catalysts for oxidation reactions.
