Abstract

The catalytic performance of cluster-derived PtFe/SiO₂ bimetallic catalysts for the oxidation of CO was examined in the absence and presence of H₂ and compared to that of Pt/SiO₂. The clusters remained weakly bonded to the SiO₂ surface and could be removed by extraction with CH₂Cl₂ without any changes in their structure. Subsequent heating in H₂ flow resulted in complete decarbonylation of the supported clusters at approximately 350°C and the formation of bimetallic particles that were more active for CO oxidation than either Pt/SiO₂ or a conventionally-prepared PtFe/SiO₂ sample. The Pt5Fe₂/SiO₂ sample was also more active than Pt/SiO₂ for preferential oxidation (PROX) with a selectivity of approximately 92% at up to 60°C. In this case the deactivation with time on stream was substantially lower, suggesting that the highly reducing environment under the Fe bimetallic PROX conditions helps to maintain the properties of the active Pt sites. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the AIChE Annual Meeting (San Francisco, CA 11/12-17/2006).
