Abstract: | "Cryptomelane-type octahedral molecular sieve (OMS-2) is one of the most promising catalysts for VOCs oxidation, and introduction of metal ions in OMS-2 tunnel is widely used for tailoring its catalytic activity. Here, different types of alkali earth metal ions with the same X/Mn atomic ratio of approximately 0.012 (X represents Mg(2+), Ca(2+), and Sr(2+)) were successfully introduced into OMS-2 tunnel by a one-step redox reaction. The catalytic test showed that introducing alkali earth metal ions into tunnels had a considerable effect on the catalytic performance of OMS-2 for benzene oxidation. The Sr(2+) doped OMS-2 catalyst exhibited the better catalytic activity compared with those of Mg-OMS-2 and Ca-OMS-2 samples, and was also superior to a commercial 0.5% Pt/Al(2)O(3) catalyst, as evidenced by its low reaction temperatures of T(50) = 200 degrees C and T(90) = 223 degrees C (corresponding to benzene conversions at 50% and 90%, respectively). The origin of the considerable effect of alkali earth metal doping on the catalytic activity of OMS-2 catalysts was experimentally and theoretically investigated by an (18)O(2) isotopic labeling experiment, CO temperature-programmed reduction, O(2) temperature-programmed oxidation, and density functional theory calculations. The greatest catalytic activity of Sr-OMS-2 compared with those of Mg-OMS-2 and Ca-OMS-2 samples was attributed to its highest lattice oxygen activity as well as its largest surface area. By introducing alkali earth metal ions into the OMS-2 tunnel, we developed a low-cost and highly efficient catalyst that could be used as alternative to noble metal catalysts" |
