Effects of Promoter on Structural and Surface Properties of Zirconium Oxide-Based Catalyst Materials

Ternary mixed oxide systems CuO/ZnO/ZrO<sub>2</sub> and CuO/NiO/ZrO<sub>2</sub> were synthesized by one-pot synthesis for a better understanding of the synthesis-property relationships of zirconium oxide-based catalyst materials. The prepared mixed oxide samples were analysed...

description Ternary mixed oxide systems CuO/ZnO/ZrO<sub>2</sub> and CuO/NiO/ZrO<sub>2</sub> were synthesized by one-pot synthesis for a better understanding of the synthesis-property relationships of zirconium oxide-based catalyst materials. The prepared mixed oxide samples were analysed by a broad range of characterisation methods (XRD, N<sub>2</sub>-physisorption, Temperature-Programmed Ammonia Desorption (TPAD), and XPS) to examine the structural and surface properties, as well as to identify the location of the potential catalytically active sites. By XPS analysis, it could be shown that a progressive enrichment of the surface composition with copper takes place by changing from ZnO to NiO as a promoter. Thus, by addition of the second component, not only electronic but also the geometric properties of active sites, i.e., copper species distribution within the catalyst surface, can be affected in a desired way.
