Abstract:

We prepared TiO2 support by hydrothermal method and impregnated Pt and different amounts of alkali metal promotor potassium on the support to obtain the precursors. The K-Pt/TiO2 catalysts were prepared by hydrogenating and used for catalytic oxidation of CO. The catalyst with a potassium content of 0.3%(mass fraction) exhibited the best catalytic performance among all the catalysts. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and oxygen storage complete capacity demonstrated that the alkali metal promotor K promoted the formation of oxygen vacancies and increased the amount of active oxygen species. A proper amount of potassium can lead to the increase of dispersion of Pt, and it can enhance the performance for catalytic oxidation of CO.

Key words: CO oxidation, Alkali metal promoter K, Oxygen vacancy, Dispersion of Pt
