Influence of ZrO2 on carbon monoxide oxidation over Pd/Al2O3
The influence of ZrO2 on the properties of Al2O3 and performances of Pd/Al2O3 catalyst in CO oxidation have been investigated. TPD results show that the activity enhanced is due to the increase of the adsorptive capacity of CO and the activation of C=O bond after the introduction of ZrO2.
