supports is investigated in the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction, using operando XAFS and DRIFTS. Different behaviour is observed for the Cu and Pt dopants during the pretreatment and reaction. The Cu migrates and builds clusters on the support, whereas the Pt creates single-atom active sites on the surface of the cluster, leading to better performance. Doping with both metals induces strong interactions and pretreatment and reaction conditions lead to the growth of the Au clusters, thereby affecting their catalytic behaviour. This highlights importance of understanding the behaviour of atoms at different stages of catalyst evolution. These insights into the atomic dynamics at the different stages are crucial for the precise optimisation of catalysts, which ultimately enables improved catalytic performance.
Understanding the atomic dynamics of active catalyst sites is crucial for the precise optimization of catalyst performance. Here, the authors employ operando XAFS and DRIFTS to study the dynamics of the mobility of platinum and copper dopants in bimetallic and trimetallic gold nanoclusters supported on ceria, using the water-gas shift process as a model reaction.
