Abstract

Results of structural refinements and catalytic evaluation of a series of palladium supported ceria-zirconia synthesized through a surfactant-assisted technique were reported. It was found that zirconium addition to ceria leads to a crystalline structure distortion and inhibits the crystal growth at high temperature. Rietveld refinements confirm that all the ceria-zirconia samples have nanocrystals with cationic defects in their structures. The Pd-supported catalysts were very active for both CO and propane complete oxidation. The best catalyst 3wt%Pd/Ce_0.8Zr_0.2O₂ has a light-off temperature (T₅₀) as low as 120°C for CO oxidation and 180°C for C₃H₈ combustion.
