چکیده

Using density functional theory (B3LYP functional) we systematically studied Pt/Ni alloy clusters (6 44 atoms) and found that the Pt/Ni(1 1 1) alloy surface prefers the bulk structure (Pt3Ni crystal), without showing surface segregation. This leads to an ordered surface with each Ni surrounded by 6 Pt atoms. We then examined the oxygen chemisorption at all surface sites and found strongest binding at a FCC site (2 Pt and 1 Ni atom, 3.50 eV). On pure Pt(1 1 1) oxygen is most stable (3.28 eV) at the FCC site formed by three Pt atoms. This finally leads to a channel-like mobility of oxygen on the alloy surface. 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Dissociative Adsorption and Hydrogenolysis of Ethane over Clean and Ni-Covered

The hydrogenolysis of ethane has been investigated on clean and Ni-covered Pt( 1 1 1) at reactant partial pressures between 0.5 and 4 Torr of ethane and between 80 and 270 Torr of hydrogen and for surface temperatures from 550 to 640 K. On clean Pt( 1 1 1) the hydrogenolysis reaction proceeds with an activation energy of 36.6 kcal/mol and reaction orders in C2H6 and H2 pressures of 1 and -1.8, ...

Stabilizing Single-Atom and Small-Domain Platinum via Combining Organometallic Chemisorption and Atomic Layer Deposition

Oxide-supported single-atom Pt materials are prepared by combining surface organometallic chemisorption with atomic layer deposition (ALD). Here Pt is supported as a discrete monatomic “pincer” complex, stabilized by an atomic layer deposition (ALD) derived oxide overcoat, and then calcined at 400 °C under O2. ALD-derived Al2O3, TiO2, and ZnO overlayers are effective in suppressing Pt sintering...

The effect of impregnation sequence on the hydrogenation activity and selectivity of supported Pt/Ni bimetallic catalysts

The effect of impregnation sequence on the formation of Pt/Ni bimetallic nanoparticles supported on g-Al2O3 was investigated for catalysts with Pt/Ni atomic ratios of 3/1 and 1/1. These bimetallic catalysts were prepared with a fixed Pt loading (5 wt.%) by incipient impregnation of one metal precursor and calcination, followed by the impregnation of the second metal precursor and a second calci...

Interaction of atomic hydrogen with monometallic Au(100), Cu(100), Pt(100) surfaces and surface of bimetallic Au@Cu(100), Au@Pt(100) overlayer systems: The role of magnetism

The spin-polarized calculations in generalized gradient approximation density–functional theory (GGA–DFT) have been used to show how the existence of second metals can modify the atomic hydrogen adsorption on Au (100), Cu (100), and Pt (100) surfaces. The computed adsorption energies for the atomic hydrogen adsorbed at the surface coverage of 0.125 ML (monolayer) for the monometallic Au (100), ...

Composition tunable ternary Pt-Ni-Co octahedra for optimized oxygen reduction activity.

Herein, we report a one-step synthesis method for octahedral Pt-Ni-Co ternary catalysts with tunable compositions and fixed shapes. Impressively, the composition optimized octahedral PtNi0.55Co0.1/C demonstrated a significant improvement in ORR activity compared to those of previously reported Pt-Ni-Co alloy octahedra, showing an outstanding specific activity of 5.05 mA cm-2 and a mass activity...
