Abstract:
Using high-resoln. TEM, IR reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRAS), and electrochem. (EC) measurements, Pt nanoparticles ranging in size from 1 to 30 nm are characterized and their catalytic activity for CO electrooxidn. is evaluated. TEM anal. reveals that Pt crystallites are not perfect cubooctahedrons, and that large particles have rougher surfaces than small particles, which have some fairly smooth (111) facets. The importance of defect sites for the catalytic properties of nanoparticles is probed in IRAS expts. by monitoring how the vibrational frequencies of atop CO (vCO) as well as the concomitant development of dissolved CO2 are affected by the no. of defects on the Pt nanoparticles. Defects play a significant role in CO clustering on nanoparticles, causing CO to decrease/increase in local coverage, which yields to anomalous red shift/blueshift vCO frequency deviations from the normal Stark-tuning behavior. The obsd. deviations are accompanied by CO2 prodn., which increases by increasing the no. of defects on the nanoparticles, i.e., 1 ≤ 2 < 5 .mchlt. 30 nm. Probably the catalytic activity for CO adlayer oxidn. is predominantly influenced by the ability of the surface to dissoc. H2O and to form OHad on defect sites rather than by CO energetics. These results are complemented by chronoamperometric and rotating disk electrode (RDE) data. In contrast to CO stripping expts., in the backsweep of CO bulk oxidn., the activity increases with decreasing particle size, i.e., with increasing oxophilicity of the particles. [on SciFinder(R)]
