Variation in Metal–Support Interaction with TiO<sub>2</sub> Loading and Synthesis Conditions for Pt-Ti/SBA-15 Active Catalysts in Methane Combustion

The control of catalytic performance using synthesis conditions is one of the main goals of catalytic research. Two series of Pt-Ti/SBA-15 catalysts with different TiO<sub>2</sub> percentages (<i>n</i> = 1, 5, 10, 30 wt.%) were obtained from tetrabutylorthotitanate (TBOT) and...

description The control of catalytic performance using synthesis conditions is one of the main goals of catalytic research. Two series of Pt-Ti/SBA-15 catalysts with different TiO<sub>2</sub> percentages (<i>n</i> = 1, 5, 10, 30 wt.%) were obtained from tetrabutylorthotitanate (TBOT) and peroxotitanate (PT), as titania precursors and Pt impregnation. The obtained catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N<sub>2</sub> sorption, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H<sub>2</sub>-TPR) and H<sub>2</sub>-chemisorption measurements. Raman spectroscopy showed framework titanium species in low TiO<sub>2</sub> loading samples. The anatase phase was evidenced for samples with higher titania loading, obtained from TBOT, and a mixture of rutile and anatase for those synthesized by PT. The rutile phase prevails in rich TiO<sub>2</sub> catalysts obtained from PT. Variable concentrations of Pt<sup>0</sup> as a result of the stronger interaction of PtO with anatase and the weaker interaction with rutile were depicted using XPS. TiO<sub>2</sub> loading and precursors influenced the concentration of Pt species, while the effect on Pt nanoparticles’ size and uniform distribution on support was insignificant. The Pt/PtO ratio and their concentration on the surface were the result of strong metal–support interaction, and this influenced catalytic performance in the complete oxidation of methane at a low temperature. The highest conversion was obtained for sample prepared from PT with 30% TiO<sub>2</sub>.
