Description
Summary:The reaction mechanism of soot oxidation on Mn (Mn<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>), Mn-Ce (Mn<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>-CeO<sub>2</sub>), and Ce (CeO<sub>2</sub>) catalysts in tight contact conditions was investigated using ITKA (isotopic transient kinetic analysis). The obtained results suggest that lattice-bulk oxygen from all studied catalysts takes part in the soot oxidation process but with varying relative contributions: for the Ce catalyst, this contribution is practically 100%, whereas with decreasing Ce content in Mn-Ce catalysts, the significance of lattice-bulk oxygen for soot oxidation diminishes. For the Mn catalyst, it is estimated to be below 50%. Moreover, strong interactions between Mn and Ce ions were observed, increasing oxygen mobility in the catalyst crystal lattice and affecting the activity of Mn-Ce catalysts.
