La{sup 3+} modified Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} as a support for CeO{sub 2}

Conference ·
OSTI ID:142009
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements indicate that the Ce{sup 3+} like fraction in {gamma}-Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} supported CeO{sub 2} can be decreased by the incorporation of La{sup 3+}. If La{sup 3+} is incorporated into the {gamma}-Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} before CeO{sub 2} is added, a higher CeO{sub 2} dispersion and a greater range of reversible reducibility of the CeO{sub 2} may also be obtained. These changes offer potential for improvement in the oxygen storage capacity provided by CeO{sub 2} in three-way catalysts. The actual effect of La{sup 3+} incorporation on the activity and durability of a Pt catalyst is assessed by a combination of temperature programmed reduction and flow reactor measurements.
