Characterization and Catalytic Properties of Nano-Sized Au Metal Catalyst on Titanium Containing High Mesoporous Silica (Ti-HMS) Synthesized by Photo-Assisted Deposition and Impregnation Methods
The photo-assisted deposition (PAD) and impregnation (img) synthesis of nano-sized Au metal on Ti-HMS are reported. The prepared catalysts were characterized by different techniques such as XRD, XAFS, TEM and nitrogen adsorption analysis. Photocatalytic reactivity using Au/Ti-HMS catalysts under vis...

| Summary: | The photo-assisted deposition (PAD) and impregnation (img) synthesis of nano-sized Au metal on Ti-HMS are reported. The prepared catalysts were characterized by different techniques such as XRD, XAFS, TEM and nitrogen adsorption analysis. Photocatalytic reactivity using Au/Ti-HMS catalysts under visible-light condition on the oxidation of CO with O2 reaction was evaluated. The results have shown notable photocatalytic activity of PAD-Au/Ti-HMS which was 2.1 and 5.7 times higher than that of img-Au/Ti-HMS and Ti-HMS, respectively. |
