Abstract:

Nano-particle Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalysts with different Pd content were prepared by solvated metal atom impregnation technique. The results of XRD and Chemisorption measurement showed that as the metal content increased the particle size of Palladium increased; but the diameter of Pd particles in all the Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalysts studied was in the range of 2.0-6.0nm. XPS study indicated that Paiiadium was in metallic slate. The Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalysts exhibited higher activity for CO oxidation at lower temperature. 100% CO conversion was achieved at 453K. As the particle size of Palladium increased the catalytic activity increased. The Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyst with Pd panicle size of 2. Inm showed the highest activity.
