Abstract
A novel porous CuOx/CeO2 co-loaded ZrO 2-TiO2 (ZT) nanocomposite with tunable pore structure and high surface area was prepared by a simple surfactant-free solvothermal method. The pore structure could be well controlled by adjusting the ratio of ethanol to H2O during the solvothermal process. Both copper oxides and ceria species could be homogeneously loaded into porous ZT nanocomposite by either incorporation into ZT framework or dispersion into the pore channels. Two kinds of novel catalysts with different pore structures have been synthesized and exhibit excellent soot catalytic combustion performance, owing to the porous structure and the active components of CuOx/CeO2.
