Abstract:
MgFe2O4 with inverse spinel structure is demonstrated to be an efficient support for constructing practical potential Pt catalyst (Pt/MgFe2O4). The resultant Pt/MgFe2O4 exhibits excellent catalytic behavior in CO oxidation under normal temperature and humidity. TOF calculated based on the content of Pt is 0.131 s-1. The excellent performance of Pt/MgFe2O4 attributes to the presence of surface undercoordinated lattice oxygens on MgFe2O4 support. These oxygens could participate in the initial CO oxidation and then be recovered under O2 conditions. Over this Pt/MgFe2O4 catalyst, CO catalytic oxidation should mainly follow a redox mechanism.

Temperature Dependence on Reaction Rate
Atoms, molecules, or ions must collide before they can react with each other. Atoms must be close together to form chemical bonds. This premise is the basis for a theory that explains many observations regarding chemical kinetics, including factors affecting reaction rates.
The collision theory is based on the postulates that (i) the reaction rate is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions, (ii) the reacting species collide in an orientation allowing contact between...
