Pd-based catalysts modified with BaO as a promoter was prepared by impregnation method. The catalyst was characterized by H2-temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The catalytic activity towards methanol showed that the BaO modification promoted the conversion of methanol. The light-off temperature (T50), complete conversion temperature (T90) and ΔT (T90-T50) for methanol oxidation are 100°C, 125°C and 25°C, respectively. The H2-TPR results showed that the addition of BaO increased palladium highly dispersed and promoted the reductive ability. It also enhanced the metal-support interaction and increased the electronic surroundings of Pd and Ce sites, which maintained Pd in a higher oxidized state and Ce4+ in Ce3+ state, consequently increased the activity for methanol oxidation according to XPS measurements.

AbstractTuning metal–support interaction has been considered as an effective approach to modulate the electronic structure and catalytic activity of supported metal catalysts. At the atomic level, the understanding of the structure–activity relationship still remains obscure in heterogeneous catalysis, such as the conversion of water (alkaline) or hydronium ions (acid) to hydrogen (hydrogen evolution reaction, HER). Here, we reveal that the fine control over the oxidation states of single-atom Pt catalysts through electronic metal–support interaction significantly modulates the catalytic activities in either acidic or alkaline HER. Combined with detailed spectroscopic and electrochemical characterizations, the structure–activity relationship is established by correlating the acidic/alkaline HER activity with the average oxidation state of single-atom Pt and the Pt–H/Pt–OH interaction. This study sheds light on the atomic-level mechanistic understanding of acidic and alkaline HER, and further provides guidelines for the rational design of high-performance single-atom catalysts.
