Coadsorption studies on transition metals. Final report, January 1983-December 1985

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5797910

Adsorption and coadsorption of the active gases H/sub 2/, CO, and O/sub 2/ on several transition metal surfaces of catalytic interest was studied using electron- and ion-stimulated desorption techniques as well as thermal-desorption spectroscopy. Evidence was found for existence of surface intermediate species during coadsorption of H/sub 2/ and CO on Rh, Ni, and Pd. Results of experiments on the following systems are reported: (1) H/sub 2/ on Pt; (2) CO on Ni; (3) H/sub 2/ and CO on Ni; (4) H/sub 2/ and CO on Rh; (5) CO and O/sub 2/ on Rh; (6) CO on Pd; (7) H/sub 2/ and CO on Pd; (9) and CO on Pt(111).
