Abstract :
This paper describes a novel synthesis method of stabilizer-free Pt/TiO2 composite nanoparticles using electron beam irradiation. The chemical compositions were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy. The microstructures of the samples were observed by using transmission electron microscope. Pt nanoparticles with the sizes of 2–4 nm were deposited on TiO2 without any use of stabilizers. The concentrations of Pt ions and 2-propanol notably affected the size and shape of Pt nanoparticles. Their reactions of preferential CO oxidation were measured in temperature region from 60 to 140 °C. The Pt/TiO2 catalyst with spherical Pt nanoparticles exhibited a 67% of CO conversion rate and 100% of selectivity at a low temperature of 60 °C.
