TLDR
In this article, the formation of "bimetallic clusters" supports the Alloy explanation for the improved performance of this type of bimetallic reforming catalyst, and it is shown that in the presence of adsorbed oxygen the Pt-Re clusters are thermodynamically unstable but that under mild conditions the rate of segregation is slow.

Temperature Programmed Reduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the success or otherwise of catalyst preparation or modification depends on the availability of suitable characterization techniques to determine the condition of the catalyst, and none of these techniques has proved to be wholly reliable or generally applicable to the characterization of catalysts under working conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature-Programmed Reduction. Parametric Sensitivity and Estimation of Kinetic Parameters

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the different experimental operating variables used in temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) measurements on the reduction profiles has been studied using the reduction of nickel oxide as an example.

Reactions of platinum in oxygen- and hydrogen-treated Ptγ-Al2O3 catalysts: I. Temperature-programmed reduction, adsorption, and redispersion of platinum

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the redispersion of Pt in oxygen is proposed and two surface oxides, α- and β-[PtO2]s, and two chloride-containing surface complexes are found and a comprehensive scheme of surface reactions is proposed.

Nanostructured Pt- and Ni-based catalysts for CO2-reforming of methane

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of using a nanofibrous Al 2 O 3 as support for Ni-based catalysts, modified with Pt, for the dry reforming of methane (DRM) was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conversion of n-hexane over monofunctional supported and unsupported PtSn catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the ensemble effect was observed in the conversion of n-hexane over Pt upon its being alloyed with Sn and the change in selectivity can be interpreted in terms of a change in adsorption properties due to differences in the number of adjacent platinum atoms required for the various reaction pathways (ensemble effect).

Supported “bimetallic cluster” catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that ruthenium or osmium concentration in the catalysts was held constant at 1 wt% while the atomic ratio of copper-to-RUThenium ratio was varied from 0 to 1.

Determination of reducibility and identification of alloying in copper-nickel-on-silica catalysts by temperature-programmed reduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the reduction characteristics of various copper, nickel, and copper-nickel-on-silica catalysts have been examined using a temperature-programmed technique, which involves a continuous and quantitative monitoring of the hydrogen uptake due to the reduction of a particular species on the catalyst surface.

Platinum-rhenium-alumina catalysts: II. Study of the metallic phase after reduction

TL;DR: Two percent (Pt + Re ) Al 2 O 3 catalysts prepared by co-impregnation of Al2O3 with H2PtCl6 and Re2O7 and generally reduced by hydrogen at 500 °C were mainly investigated by thermogravimetry (H2O2 cycles at 25 °C), electron microscopy, and infrared spectroscopy (chemisorption of CO at 25°C) as mentioned in this paper.
