Abstract

Ceria nanocrystallites with different morphologies and crystal planes were hydrothermally prepared, and the effects of ceria supports on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of Pd/CeO2 for the CO and propane oxidation were examined. The results showed that the structure and chemical state of Pd on ceria were affected by ceria crystal planes. The Pd species on CeO2-R (rods) and CeO2-C (cubes) mainly formed PdxCe1–xO2−σ solid solution with −Pd2+–O2––Ce4+– linkage. In addition, the PdOx nanoparticles were dominated on the surface of Pd/CeO2-O (octahedrons). For the CO oxidation, the Pd/CeO2-R catalyst showed the highest catalytic activity among three catalysts, its reaction rate reached 2.07 × 10–4 mol…
