构建单原子催化剂(SACs)和载体氧空位(OV)的协同催化对于提高CO2加氢催化效率至关重要,但同时也面临着诸多挑战。
近日,黑龙江大学付宏刚教授和刘健聪副教授等人在Science China Materials发表研究论文,开发了一种胺分子辅助原位锚定策略,通过控制胺分子与铂(Pt)物种和TiO2−x之间的相互作用,成功实现Pt单原子在TiO2−x上的有效分散与稳定。
1) 直接证据表明,Pt SACs嵌入OV中形成Ptδ+-OV-Ti3+结构,并展现出强金属-载体相互作用,这不仅抑制了高温还原过程中Pt SACs的烧结,还增强了氢溢流过程,促进了更多OV位点的形成。2) 在逆水煤气变换(RWGS)反应中,增加的OV位点数量可以促进CO2的吸附,而Pt SACs则有效提升了氢的活化和溢流。二者的协同作用显著提高了材料的催化性能,是其在330°C下具有高达9289 h−1的转化频率(TOF)和超过200小时的高稳定性,超越了TiO2−x上负载Pt团簇和纳米颗粒催化剂。本工作为可控制备具有单原子和OV的协同催化剂开辟了一条新的途径。Figure 1.
