Abstract
Crystal facet engineering is an effective strategy for designing efficient catalysts to improve the ability to oxidize formaldehyde (HCHO). In this article, anatase TiO2 samples with different main exposed crystal facets ((001), (010) and (101)) were prepared and utilized as supports to load Pd, leading to the synthesis of Pd/TiO2 (001), Pd/TiO2 (010) and Pd/TiO2 (101) catalysts, respectively. For HCHO oxidation, Pd/TiO2 (001) displayed the best activity, and could convert 100% HCHO at 35 °C. However, the removal rates for Pd/TiO2 (010) and Pd/TiO2 (101) catalysts were only 46% and 35% even at 55 °C. After carefully comparing the property differences of these three supports, it was found that more surface defects were formed on the (001) facet than on (010) and (101). With more surface defects of support, Pd/TiO2 (001) catalyst possessed more oxygen vacancies, Pd metal sites and interface sites, which could effectively activate oxygen and water. This further improved the ability to oxidize HCHO. The findings from this study are anticipated to contribute valuable insights for the design of highly efficient supported noble metal catalysts.
