Structural Distortion of Molybdenum-Doped Manganese Oxide Octahedral Molecular Sieves for Enhanced Catalytic Performance.
2015
Due to the excellent catalytic performance of manganese oxide (K-OMS-2) in a wide range of applications, incorporation of various dopants has been commonly applied for K-OMS-2 to acquire additional functionality or activities. However, the understanding of its substitution mechanism with respect to the catalytic performance of doped K-OMS-2 materials remains unclear. Here we present the structural distortion (from tetragonal to monoclinic cell) and morphological evolution in K-OMS-2 materials by doping hexavalent molybdenum. With a Mo-to-Mn ratio of 1:20 (R-1:20) in the preparation, the resultant monoclinic K-OMS-2 shows a small equidimensional particle size (∼15 nm), a high surface area of 213 m2g–1, and greatly improved catalytic activity toward CO oxidation with lower onset temperatures (40 °C) than that of pristine K-OMS-2 (above 130 °C). HR-TEM analyses reveal direct evidence of structural distortion on the cross-section of 2 × 2 tunnels with the absence of 4-fold rotation symmetry expected for a tet...
