Abstract:Catalytic is a crucial reaction for environmental detoxication of pesticides and neutralization of various molecules classified as chemical warfare agents. Herein, we report on a series of tunable Ce‐Zr‐based metal oxides, (ZraCe1‐aOx) prepared using a facile biomineralization technique, as catalysts for organophosphates dephosphorylation. Synchrotron scattering and spectroscopy methods showcase that ZraCe1‐aOx catalysts are highly defective and exhibit an abundance of Ce3+ sites that promote oxygen vacancies … Show more
