ZnO has important application potential owing to its diverse superior properties. For example, ZnO nanoparticles with controllable dimension and morphology may be perspective for the fabrication of supported catalysts either as support, active component, promoter or as structural and textural modifier etc. There are many various methods of chemical synthesis for preparation of the ZnO containing nanostructures. But the most of them are laborious and expensive. We proposed a relatively simple method for preparation of ZnO/MgO catalyst with constant chemical composition (ca. 1 wt. % ZnO) and controlled size of active component. The developed approach is based on deposition of previously formed zinc oxide nanoparticles from colloidal solution without surfactant on magnesia. The ZnO nanoparticles colloid was obtained by mixing of 2-propanol solutions of zinc acetate and sodium hydroxide. The synthesis of ZnO/MgO solid was carried out by mixing of Contact Us Visits Of this Page 0 Conference Name Duration Publishing Year Article Type Added Date ZnO colloidal solution with magnesia suspension in 2-propanol followed by filtration, washing, drying and calcination. The size of ZnO nanoparticles is controlled by conditions of their growth in colloidal solution: concentration of initial reagents, pH value, temperature and time of aging. The morphology of obtained products was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The size distribution of ZnO nanoparticles in colloidal solutions and ZnO/MgO solids were determined from data of TEM and UV-Vis absorption and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. A good agreement between the average radius and the particle size distribution of the ZnO nanoparticles obtained by both methods has been found. The ZnO/MgO solids with different size of ZnO nanoparticles (3-7 nm in diameter) were synthesized by varying the conditions of ZnO nanoparticles growth in colloidal suspension. The catalytic properties of prepared ZnO/MgO solids were tested in the CO oxidation reaction by a flow method (2 % CO, 20 % O2, 78 % He, flow rate 100 cm3/min). It was found that the increasing of ZnO nanoparticles size leads to nonmonotonic change of their catalytic activity. The ZnO/MgO solid containing ZnO particles with average radius about 2.20 nm has maximum activity in CO oxidation reaction. : Tenth International Symposium on Heterogeneous Catalysis : From : 22/8/1429 AH - To : 26/8/1429 AH From : 23/8/2008 AD - To : 27/8/2008 AD : 1429 AH 2008 AD : Article : Wednesday, February 11, 2009 Researchers Researcher Name Researcher Name Researcher Dr Email (Arabic) (English) Type Grade Peter E.
