Zusammenfassung:
Alumina-supported Pd model catalysts were prepared by Pd evaporation onto a thin alumina film grown on a NiAl(110) substrate. Adsorption and co-adsorption of ethene, CO and hydrogen on Pd/Al2O3/NiAl(110) covered by carbon species, formed by ethene dehydrogenation at similar to550 K, was studied by temperature programmed desorption (TPD). TPD results show that carbon deposits do not prevent adsorption but inhibit dehydrogenation of di-sigma bonded ethene. Carbon species suppress CO adsorption in the highly coordinated sites and also suppress the formation of hydrogen ad-atoms on the surface. The ethene hydrogenation reaction performed by coadsorption of hydrogen and ethene is inhibited by the presence of carbon deposits. The inhibition is independent of particle size studied (1-2 nm). The effects are rationalized in terms of a site-blocking behavior of carbon species occupying highly coordinated sites on the Pd surface.
