    Abstract Time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) offers the possibility to monitor the state of materials during chemical reactions. While this technique has been established for transmission measurements for a number of years, XAS measurements in fluorescence mode are challenging because of limitations in signal collection as well as detectors. Nevertheless, measurements in fluorescence mode are often the only option to study complex materials containing heavy matrices or in samples where the element of interest is in low concentration. Here, it has been demonstrated that high-quality quick-scanning full extended X-ray absorption fine-structure data can be readily obtained with sub-second time resolution in fluorescence mode, even for highly diluted samples. It has also been demonstrated that in challenging samples, where transmission measurements are not feasible, quick fluorescence can yield significant insight in reaction kinetics.

    Abstract This paper presents a proof-of-concept study and demonstrates the next generation of a “smart” catalyst material, applicable to high temperature catalysis and electro-catalysis such as gas processing and as a catalyst for solid oxide cells. A modified citrate-gel technique was developed for the synthesis of LaxSr1−1.5xTi1−yNiyO3−δ. This method allowed the synthesis of single phase materials with a high specific surface area, after the first calcination step at temperatures as low as 650 °C. Up to 5 at% of nickel could be incorporated into the perovskite structure at this low calcination temperature. X-ray powder diffraction and microscopy techniques have proven the exsolution of nickel nanoclusters under low oxygen partial pressure. The amount of exsoluted nickel nanoparticles was sensitive to surface finishing, whereby much more exsoluted nanoparticles were observed on pre-treated and polished surfaces as compared to original ones. Increasing A-site deficiency leads to a larger number of nickel particles on the surface, indicating a destabilizing influence of the A-site vacancies on the B-site metal cations. Repetitive redox cycles prove that the nickel exsolution and re-integration is a fully reversible process. These materials working in a cyclic and repetitive way may overcome the drawbacks of currently used conventional catalysts used for high temperature systems and overcome major degradation issues related to catalyst poisoning and coarsening-induced aging.

    Abstract Co3O4 with a spinel structure shows unique activity for CO oxidation at low temperature under dry conditions; however the active surface is not very stable. In this study, two series of Fe- and Cr-doped Co3O4 catalysts were prepared by a single-step solution combustion technique. Fe was chosen because of its redox activity corresponding to the Fe2+/Fe3+ redox couple and compared to Cr, which is mainly stable in the Cr3+ state. The catalytic activity of new materials for low-temperature CO oxidation was correlated to the nature of the dopant. As a function of dopant concentration, the temperature corresponding to the 50% CO conversion (T50) demonstrated significant differences. The maximal activity was achieved for 15% Fe-doped Co3O4 with T50 of −85 °C and remained almost constant up to 25% Fe. In the case of Cr, the activity was observed to be maximum for 7% of Cr with T50 of −42 °C and significantly decreased for higher Cr loadings. Similarly, there was a contrasting behavior in catalyst stability too. 100% CO conversion was achieved below −60 °C for 15% Fe/Co3O4 catalyst and remained unchanged even after calcination at 600 °C. In contrast, Co3O4 or 15% Cr/Co3O4 catalysts strongly deactivated after the same treatment. These differences were correlated to the oxidation states, coordination numbers, the nature of surface planes, and the redox properties. We observed that both Cr and Fe were typically present in the +3 oxidation state, occupying octahedral sites in the spinel structure. The catalysts were mainly exposed to (111) and (220) planes on the surface. H2-TPR indicated clear differences in the redox activity of materials due to Fe and Cr substitutions. The reducibility of surface Co3+ species remained similar in all Fe-doped Co3O4 catalysts in contrast to nonreducible Cr-doped analogs, which shifted the reduction temperature to the higher values. As the Fe3+/Fe2+ redox couple partly substituted the Co3+/Co2+ redox couple in the spinel structure, similar bond strength of Fe–O keep redox activity of Co3+ species almost unchanged leading to higher activity and stability of Fe/Co3O4 catalysts for low-temperature CO oxidation. In contrast, nonreducible Cr3+ species characterized by strong Cr–O bond substituting active Co3+ sites can make the Cr/Co3O4 surface less active for CO oxidation.

    Abstract Perovskite-type oxides have shown the ability to reversibly segregate precious metals from their structure. This reversible segregation behavior was explored for a commonly used catalyst metal, Ni, to prevent Ni sintering, which is observed on most catalyst support materials. Temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and catalytic activity tests were used to follow the extent of reversible Ni segregation. LaFe

    Abstract Biodegradable metals offer great potential in circumventing the long-term risks and side effects of medical implants. Austenitic Fe-Mn-C-Pd alloys feature a well-balanced combination of high strength and considerable ductility which make them attractive for use as degradable implant material. The focus of this study is the evaluation of the degradation performance of these alloys by means of immersion testing and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in simulated body fluid. The Fe-Mn-C-Pd alloys are characterized by an increased degradation rate compared to pure Fe, as revealed by both techniques. Electrochemical measurements turned out to be a sensitive tool for investigating the degradation behavior. They not only show that the polarization resistance is a measure of corrosion tendency, but also provide information on the evolution of the degradation product layers. The mass loss data from immersion tests indicate a decreasing degradation rate for longer times due to the formation of degradation products on the sample surfaces. The results are discussed in detail in terms of the degradation mechanism of Fe-based alloys in physiological media.

    Abstract Co3O4 with spinel structure shows CO oxidation activity at very low temperature under dry conditions. This study aims at finding the origin of the unique catalytic activity of Co species in Co3O4 based oxides. Although, octahedral site Co3+ species have been reported to be active in Co3O4 based catalysts, there is no solid explanation as to why Co is so special as compared with other metals like Fe having similar redox states. In this study, mainly, three model spinel catalysts including MnCo2O4, MnFe2O4, and CoCr2O4 have been chosen. A detailed analysis of bulk and crystal surface structure, surface properties of the catalysts, and redox properties of the active metals has been performed to understand the unusual catalytic activity. Low-temperature CO oxidation activity decreases in the following order: MnCo2O4 ≫ MnFe2O4 > CoCr2O4. It indicates that the Co2+ species in a tetrahedral site (in CoCr2O4) remains inactive for low-temperature catalytic activity, while Co3+ in an octahedral site (in MnCo2O4) is active in Co3O4 based catalysts. This result is corroborated with CoFe2O4 which shows a higher activity than CoCr2O4, as it has partial occupation of the octahedral site. Fe, being a weak redox metal, does not show low-temperature activity, although crystallite facets of MnCo2O4 and MnFe2O4 catalysts are predominantly exposed in the (100) and (110) lattice planes, which contain quite similar concentrations of Co3+ and Fe3+ species in both. The intensity of the redox peak for CO oxidation involving a Co3+/Co2+ couple in MnCo2O4 indicates a highly favorable reaction, while a nonresponsive behavior of Co species is observed in CoCr2O4. As expected, MnFe2O4 is proven to be weak, giving a much lower intensity of electrochemical CO oxidation. Both CO- and H2-TPR indicate a much higher reducibility of Co species in MnCo2O4 as compared with Co species in CoCr2O4 or Fe in MnFe2O4.
