Relations between Synthesis and Microstructural Properties of Copper/Zinc Hydroxycarbonates

Abstract: Cu/Zn Hydroxycarbonates obtained by co‐precipitation of Cu2+ and Zn2+ with Na2CO3 have been investigated regarding phase formation and thermal decomposition in two series with varying Cu/Zn ratios prepared according to the decreasing pH and constant pH method. Hydrozincite, aurichalcite and (zincian)‐malachite were found to form at differing Cu/Zn ratios for both series. For the constant pH preparation the Cu/Zn ratio in zincian‐malachite was close to the nominal values whereas excess values were found for the… Show more

“…The short-range order structure (<2 Å) of this resulting ZnO phase mainly corresponds to disordered ZnO. Hydroxide and carbonate species may persist after mild thermal treatment (calcination, reduction) in the catalytically active catalyst [25]. Thus, the diminished amplitude of the 1st Zn-Zn shell obtained after reduction of sample CZA-1 may be caused by a superimposition of the spectra of different Zn species in addition to a highly disordered ZnO phase (Fig.…”

“…Such a modified zinc oxide serves as a growth inhibitor of copper particles [25], [51] and [52]. Hence, mild reduction in hydrogen results in copper dissolved in ZnO and copper metal particles bonded epitaxially to the surface of the ZnO matrix [50].…”

“…We speculate at this point that the relevant nonequilibrium structure of active Cu is generated during synthesis explaining the phenomenon of "chemical memory".

In parallel, the geometric and the surface electronic structure of highly active systems will be analyzed with synchtrotron-based techniques to further refine the structural properties of the active Cu metal phase under reaction conditions.…”

“…Precipitate ageing, for instance, strongly influences the activity of the resulting Cu/ZnO catalysts. 14,15,16,17 The superior activity of Cu/ZnO catalysts obtained from precipitates aged for more than 30 min was shown to correlate with the increasing microstrain in the copper nanoparticles. 18 Apparently, extrapolating structure-activity relationships revealed for idealized copper model systems to the microstructure and catalytic properties of industrial catalysts needs to be conducted with care.…”
