A temperature-adjustable in situ infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy system for catalysts

Abstract

We introduce an innovative in situ infrared diffuse reflection rapid detection system, endowed with a temperature regulation function. This system is adept at conducting rapid infrared spectra scanning as well as simulating the catalytic environment of diverse reaction systems. The infrared absorption spectra of four kinds of Pt-based catalysts under vacuum conditions across a wide temperature spectrum ranging from −180 to 300 °C are obtained and analysed through IR correlation spectroscopy. A key finding is the notable variance in peak intensity within Pt/CeO2/CNT catalysts, highlighting a robust adsorption capacity for oxygen-containing groups at lower temperatures and a marked desorption at higher temperatures. By enabling rapid and accurate assessments of catalyst behavior under varying temperatures, it not only accelerates the evaluation process but also provides valuable insights that can guide the synthesis of more efficient catalysts.
