Abstract
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Ceria (CeO 2 ) with different crystal-planes were used as supports to synthesize gold (Au)/CeO 2 catalysts for the preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO). A CeO 2 morphology-dependent Au-CeO 2 interaction was observed. Au/CeO 2 -R in this present work performed the outstanding activity at lower temperature than ever since other works were reported. The Au catalyst supported on rod-shaped CeO 2 exhibited the highest CO conversion level of 97.9% at 30 °C, followed by that on polyhedral- (94.0%), cube- (74.0%) and octahedral- (27.7%) shaped CeO 2 . The catalytic activities were strongly affected by the CeO 2 crystal-planes and Au active species. The rod-shaped CeO 2 enclosed by (1 1 0) and (1 0 0) planes might interact strongly with Au species, generating the most accessible active sites to absorb/desorb and activate the CO and oxygen molecules. The octahedral-shaped CeO 2 enclosed by the (1 1 1) plane had the lowest catalytic activity since the (1 1 1) plane is the most stable and irreducible of the CeO 2 (1 1 1), (1 0 0) and (1 1 0) planes, accounting for its decreased catalytic activity.
