Hydrogen Spillover Induced PtCo/CoOx Interfaces with Enhanced Catalytic Activity for CO Oxidation at Low Temperatures in Humid Conditions
The development of catalysts with abundant active interfaces for superior low-temperature catalytic CO oxidation is critical to meet increasingly rigorous emission requirements, yet still challenging. Herein, this work reports a PtCo/CoO x /Al 2 O 3 catalyst with PtCo clusters and enriched Pt─O─Co interfaces induced by hydrogen spillover from the Pt sites and self-oxidation process in air, exhibiting excellent performance for CO oxidation at low temperatures and humid conditions. The combination of structural characterizations and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy reveals that the PtCo cluster effectively prevents CO saturation/poisoning on the Pt surface. Additionally, the presence of Pt─O─Co interfaces in the PtCo/CoO x /Al 2 O 3 catalyst provides a significant number of active sites for oxygen activation and ─OH formation. This facilitates efficient generation of CO 2 at ambient temperature by coupling with nearby adsorbed CO molecules, resulting in superior low-temperature activity and long-term stability for CO oxidation under humid conditions. This work provides a facile route toward rationalizing the design of catalysts with more active interfaces for superior low-temperature CO oxidation under humid conditions for practical applications.
