Abstract
A noble metal catalyst shows excellent low-temperature oxidation activity in the catalytic combustion of benzene but has the problem of SO2 poisoning. We all know that SO2 easily competes with the reactant molecules for adsorption of the active site and has electronic effects on the active site to deactivate the catalyst. Therefore, the sulfur resistance of catalysts is the key problem to be solved in the process of catalytic combustion of benzene. Herein, the Pt/SiO2 catalyst with an ordered mesoporous structure was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method, and MgO, ZnO, and MnOx were, respectively, coated on the surface of Pt/SiO2 as ultrathin shells to improve the sulfur resistance of Pt/SiO2. We observed that the sulfur resistance of the Pt/SiO2 catalyst was significantly improved due to the protective effect of the metal oxide shell. By comparing the three core-shell catalysts, it was found that the Pt/SiO2@MnOx catalyst coated with a MnOx shell had the best performance. The reason was that the MnOx shell not only protected the Pt active site but also had a good electron transfer effect on the core Pt, so it could effectively avoid the rapid adsorption poisoning of SO2 on the active Pt0 site. In addition, it was verified that the excellent redispersion of MnOx species in a SO2 atmosphere could increase the low-temperature oxidation activity of the Pt/SiO2@MnOx catalyst. Meanwhile, in situ DRIFT results also confirmed that the MnOx shell could significantly promote the oxidation of benzene molecules in the SO2 atmosphere.
