Abstract
Au/Al2O3 · xH2O and Au/TiO2/Al2O3 · xH2O (x = 0–3) catalysts were prepared by assembling gold nanoparticles on neat and TiO2-modified Al2O3, AlOOH, and Al(OH)3 supports, and their catalytic activity in CO oxidation was tested either as synthesized or after on-line pretreatment in O2–He at 500 °C. A promotional effect of TiO2 on the activity of gold catalysts was observed upon 500 °C-pretreatment. The catalyst stability as a function of time on stream was tested in the absence or presence of H2, and physiochemical characterization applying BET, ICP-OES, XRD, TEM, and 27Al MAS NMR was conducted.
