Strong metal-support interaction promoted scalable production of thermally stable single-atom catalysts

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have demonstrated superior catalytic performance in numerous heterogeneous reactions. However, producing thermally stable SACs, especially in a simple and scalable way, remains a formidable challenge. Here, we report the synthesis of Ru SACs from commercial RuO 2 powders...

description Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have demonstrated superior catalytic performance in numerous heterogeneous reactions. However, producing thermally stable SACs, especially in a simple and scalable way, remains a formidable challenge. Here, we report the synthesis of Ru SACs from commercial RuO 2 powders by physical mixing of sub-micron RuO 2 aggregates with a MgAl 1.2 Fe 0.8 O 4 spinel. Atomically dispersed Ru is confirmed by aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Detailed studies reveal that the dispersion process does not arise from a gas atom trapping mechanism, but rather from anti-Ostwald ripening promoted by a strong covalent metal-support interaction. This synthetic strategy is simple and amenable to the large-scale manufacture of thermally stable SACs for industrial applications. Large scale production of thermally stable single-atom catalysts (SACs) remains challenging. Here, the authors report scalable synthesis of Ru SACs by heating physical mixture of commercial RuO 2 and Fe-containing support, which is significantly promoted by strong metal-support interaction.
