从同一ZrO(OH)2出发制备了三种不同尺寸的ZrO2纳米颗粒(ZrO2-CP: 40~200 nm, ZrO2-AN: 18~25 nm, ZrO2-AD: 10~15 nm), 采用沉积-沉淀方法制备了相应的Au/ZrO2催化剂. 用XRD, XRF, TEM和低温N2吸附对ZrO2和Au/ZrO2进行了表征. XRD和TEM分析表明Au/ZrO2样品中Au粒子的平均尺寸为4~5 nm, 而ZrO2的晶相和颗粒大小没有因为“负载”Au粒子而发生变化. CO催化氧化反应的结果表明, Au/ZrO2催化活性随着ZrO2纳米粒子尺寸的减小活性明显增加. TEM/HRTEM结果表明, Au/ZrO2催化剂中Au粒子与ZrO2颗粒接触界面随ZrO2颗粒尺寸的减小而明显增加, 这很可能是含有更小尺寸ZrO2纳米粒子的Au/ZrO2催化剂具有更高催化活性的重要原因.

This work explores the size-effect of zirconia nanoparticles on the catalysis of Au/ZrO2 for CO oxidation. Zirconia particles with different sizes (ZrO2-CP: 40~200 nm; ZrO2-AN: 18~25 nm; ZrO2-AD: 10~15 nm) was prepared from a single source of ZrO(OH)2 and the deposition-precipitation method was employed to prepare the Au/ZrO2 catalysts. The samples were characterized with XRD, TEM, XRF and nitrogen adsorption measurements. While the Au particles in all the Au/ZrO2 catalysts appeared to show similar sizes (4~5 nm), the catalytic activity order of Au/ZrO2-AD>Au/ZrO2-AN>Au/ZrO2-CP revealed clearly that smaller zirconia nanoparticles led to Au/ZrO2 catalyst with higher catalytic activity. The activity improvement by reducing zirconia nanoparticle size seems attributable to the increased Au-zirconia junctions in the catalysts.
