Problems solved by technology

Other methods involving cation adsorption or using organogold complexes are more expensive than the above methods
Sputtering and laser ablation methods can provide good control over Au particle size, but equipment can be very expensive and scale-up of production is difficult (see, Fan, L. et al., In Studies In Surface Science and Catalysis 132 (Iwasawa , Y. et al.) page 769)

Embodiment 1

[0067] Embodiment 1: the preparation of Au catalyst

[0068] Use HAuCl 4 As a precursor, NaBH 4 Au catalyst was prepared as reducing agent and amino acid as capping agent. During reduction, sonication (eg, 20 seconds) is used. Next, the catalyst was separated using centrifugation and washed with deionized water. The advantage of our method is the low reaction temperature and its adaptability to various catalyst supports. respectively for air and H 2 The catalytic activity of the catalyst for CO oxidation in the presence of , is comparable to the best state-of-the-art results.

[0069] Au / TiO 2 , Au / Fe 2 o 3 , Au / SiO 2 、(B)Au / CeO 2 、(C)Au / Al 2 o 3 , Pt / TiO 2 TEM images of the catalysts are shown in figure 2 , 3 , 4 and 10. The diameter of the Au colloid in the solution is 3-5nm ( figure 2 A). Deposited onto TiO 2 ( figure 2 B), or Fe 2 o 3 Or other catalyst supports, the size of the Au particles hardly changed. Moreover, these Au particles are highly...

Embodiment 3

[0071] Example 3: Oxidation of CO in air for mask application

[0072] CO in air on Au / TiO 2 on and at 1% Au / Fe 2 o 3 The oxidation on Figure 5 and Image 6 middle. For both catalysts, at room temperature and at high space velocity and for 1% Au / Fe 2 o 3 The catalyst can completely remove CO at 0°C. However, at -63°C, at 1% Au / Fe 2 o 3 The CO conversion on the above decreases from 100% to about 2.35% ( Image 6 B). Tests have shown that the life of the catalyst is at least greater than 200 hours. No further testing of stability was performed. 1%Au / TiO 2 and 1% Au / Fe 2 o 3 Both are suitable for use in masks and other breathing apparatus.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel method for preparing a new type of catalyst for the oxidation of CO in a reactant gas or air. The method provides the preparation of a catalyst having nano-sized metal particles and a capping agent deposited on a solid support. The size and distribution of the metal particles can be easily controlled by adjusting reaction condition and the capping agent used. The catalyst prepared has high activity at low temperature toward selective oxidation of CO and is stable over an extended period of time. The catalyst can be used in air filter devices, hydrogen purification processes, automotive emission control devices (decomposition of NOx, x is the integer 1 or 2), F-T synthesis, preparation of fuel-cell electrode, photocatalysis and sensors.
