The ethanol oxidation experiments, N2adsorption–desorption,FTIR, XRD and XPS were conducted, and the effects of Al2O3content on the surface area, phase transformation and structural properties of TiO2were investigated. The optimal value of ethanol conversion appeared on Pd/Al(0.05)–Ti and Pd/Al(0.90)–Ti catalysts irrespective of the ethanol oxidation temperature, and we call this as a double peaks phenomenon of catalytic activity. The XRD results reveal that the phase composition and crystallite size of the mixed oxides depend on Al2O3/TiO2ratio and calcination temperature. Al2O3can effectively prevent the agglomeration of TiO2and this can be ascribed to the formation of Al–O–Ti chemical bonds in Al2O3–TiO2crystals. Binding energy and Pd surface concentration of the catalysts were modified apparently, which may also lead to catalyst activity changes.展开更多
