The catalyst samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD） and scanning electron microscopy（SEM）. The electrochemical properties were measured by a three electrode system on electrochemical workstation（IVIUM）. The results showed that the presence of CeO_2-ZrO_2 might be associated with the presence of Pt, which indicated that possibly there was synergistic effect between CeO_2-ZrO_2 and Pt nanoparticles. The electrocatalytic activity and stability of Pt-MO_x/C（M=Ce, Zr） for methanol and ethanol oxidation was better than that of Pt-CeO_2/C, which was attributed to that CeO_2-ZrO_2 composited oxides enhanced oxygen mobility and promoted oxygen storage capacity（OSC）. Furthermore, the best performance was found when the molar ratio of CeO_2 to ZrO_2 was 2：1 for the oxidation of methanol and ethanol. The forward peak current density of Pt-MO_x/C（M=Ce, Zr, Ce：Zr=2：1） towards the methanol electrooxidation was about 3.8 times that of Pt-CeO_2/C. Pt-MO_x/C（M=Ce, Zr） appeared to be a promising and less expensive methanol oxidation anode catalyst.展开更多

Two key factors （i.e., pressure and temperature） were investigated to explore the effects of catalyst structure and physic-chemical properties （i.e., morphology, reducing property, oxygen storage capacity and specific surface area）. The resulting materials were characterized with X-ray diffraction （XRD）, high resolution transmission electron micros-copy （HRTEM）, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller （BET）,hydrogen temperature programmed reduction （H2-TPR） and oxygen storage capac-ity （OSC） measurement, respectively. The experimental results showed that lower temperatures promoted production of hollow struc-ture nano-particulates. The particle morphology also changed significantly, i.e. the solid construction was first transferred to hollow structure then back to solid construction. The optimal conditions for obtaining hollow nano-particles were determined at 45 °C, 18.0–24.0 MPa.展开更多

High thermal stability of the textural properties is one of the most important requirements for practical application since temperatures up to 1273 K are easily experienced by these materials under real working conditions. In the present paper, we investigated how hydrothermal treatments applied to cakes of doped and undoped ZrO2-rich CeO2-ZrO2 precursors might improve the thermal stability of the final CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution. A rationale was developed that allowed to correlate the morphology of the hydrothermaUy treated cake with the thermal stability at 1273 K of the final product, which did not depend on the composition of the mixed oxides.展开更多
