Catalysis: Enhanced Catalytic Efficiency of Pt Nanoparticles Supported on 3D Ordered Macro‐/Mesoporous Ce0.6Zr0.3Y0.1O2 for Methane Combustion (Small 20/2015). Issue 20 (May 2015) - Arandiyan, Hamidreza
Abstract The synthesis of 3D ordered macroporous (3DOM) Ce0.6Zr0.3Y0.1O2 (CZY) is demonstrated by H. Arandiyan, H. Dai, J. Li, and co‐workers on page 2366. The 3DOM CZY has mesoporous walls and a high surface area, and incorporates a high dispersion of platinum nanoparticles. A sample with 1.1 wt% Pt shows supercatalytic activity for methane combustion, which is attributed to its larger surface area, higher oxygen adspecies concentration, better low‐temperature reducibility, and the unique 3DOM structure.
