Abstract:
Platinum alloy gauzes are employed for the high-temperature oxidation of NH3 to NO used in the industrial production of HNO3 for application in agricultural fertilizers. To enhance the efficiency of NH3 oxidation, various Pt–Pd–Rh alloys are employed for the production of such catalytic gauzes. To understand the role of these metals in NH3 oxidation, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were applied to investigate the morphology, composition and structure of Pt, Pd and Rh foils after annealing in O2 and oxidation of NH3 with air at 1133 K. After annealing in O2 and NH3 oxidation, the metallic microgranular structure was detected on Pt(poly), whereas oxide layers of Rh2O3 and PdO were observed on Rh(poly) and Pd(poly). At the onset of NH3 oxidation (t = 1 h), fibrous metal-oxide agglomerates of nanofibers formed on these oxide layers. The long-term (5–10 h) oxidation of NH3 led to the formation of a continuous layer of pyramidal crystals on Rh(poly) and palladium “cauliflowers” on Pd(poly). The highly exothermic reaction of NH3 with oxygen on metals and PdO or Rh2O3 initiates strong catalytic etching forming grains and facets on Pt, fibrous metal-oxide agglomerates, pyramidal crystals and metallic “cauliflowers” on Rh and Pd.
