Pt NPs immobilized on a N-doped graphene@Al2O3 hybrid support as robust catalysts for low temperature CO oxidation†
Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) immobilized on a N-doped graphene@Al2O3 hybrid support (Al2O3@CNx) were synthesized and employed for low temperature CO oxidation. The superior catalytic activity was attributed to a strong metal–support interaction between Pt NPs and the N-doped graphene surface which was also confirmed in the direct dehydrogenation reaction.
