Silver, Titanium dioxide, CO oxidationAbstract
Supported silver catalysts on titanium dioxide have been synthesized by three different methods to compare catalytic activity in CO oxidation. The catalysts were prepared by the wet impregnation method with 10 mole% of silver. In the first method, the silver catalysts were impregnated on the titanium dioxide nanoparticles (Ag/TNP), while in the second method, the silver catalysts were impregnated on the titanium dioxide nanotubes (Ag/TNT). The third method, the silver catalysts were impregnated on the titanium dioxide nanoparticles before the nanotube process (Ag/TNP-TNT). The Ag/TNP and Ag/TNT catalysts showed highly dispersed silver nanoparticles with an average particle size of less than 5 nm on the surface of titanium dioxide, whereas the Ag/TNP-TNT catalyst exhibited much lower dispersion of silver nanoparticles. The highly dispersed silver on the titanium dioxide resulted in a large number of surface active sites (Ag0). The catalytic activity test found that the Ag/TNT catalysts with the highest number of active sites (2.20 × 1020 atom/g-catalyst) exhibited higher CO oxidation activity than the Ag/TNP and Ag/TNT catalysts with 100% CO conversion at 125°C.
