Abstract:
The catalytic behavior of Co3O4 catalysts loaded by Pd for methane oxidation can be tailored by distinct spatial architectures and surface structures of such catalysts. Pd nanoparticles nested in Co3O4 with hexagonal-like microflakes exhibited superior catalytic activity, that is, T10 = 250 °C and T90 = 325 °C are correlated to 10% and 90% conversion of methane. Further Pd/Co3O4 microflakes catalyst can almost restore to its initial value in the absence of water when water vapor was cut off. This excellent catalysis should be attributed to its exposed more open surface, more active oxygen species and stronger redox properties.

Structure and Physical Properties of Alkynes
In nature, compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen are known as "hydrocarbons". Aliphatic hydrocarbons are compounds whose molecules contain saturated single bonds (i.e., alkanes) or unsaturated double or triple bonds. Alkenes contain carbon–carbon double bonds and have a structural formula CnH2n. Unsaturated hydrocarbons containing carbon–carbon triple bonds are called "alkynes" and are structurally represented by the formula CnH2n-2.
