Two-nozzle flame synthesis of Pt/Ba/Al2O3 for NOx storage

Büchel R., Strobel R., Pratsinis S.E., Baiker A., ETH Zürich, CH

A novel two-nozzle flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) process is presented for one-step preparation of Pt/Ba/Al2O3 particles for NOx storage-reduction (NSR) catalysts. These storage catalysts are of particular interest for mobile engines operating under lean conditions [...]

One-Step Flame-Synthesis of Carbon-Embedded and -Supported Platinum Clusters

Ernst F.O., Büchel R., Strobel R., Pratsinis S.E., ETH Zürich, CH

Carbon-embedded or -supported Pt-clusters were made by a scalable, single-step flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) process. Pt-containing precursors was dissolved in xylene and sprayed and combusted in a controlled oxidation atmosphere resulting in nanostructured, carbon-embedded Pt-clusters. [...]

Two-nozzle flame synthesis of tailored Pt/Ba/Al2O3 nanoparticles for NOx storage-reduction

Strobel R., Piacentini M., Maciejewski M., Baiker A., Pratsinis S.E., ETH Zürich, CH

NOx storage reduction (NSR) catalysts are applied for the abatement of NOx from engines operating under lean conditions, where conventional TWC catalysts are inefficient. Here, a novel two-nozzle flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) process was developed [...]

Cubic or monoclinic Y2O3:Eu3+ nanoparticles by flame spray pyrolysis

Camenzind A., Strobel R., Pratsinis S.E., ETH Zürich, CH

Continuous, single-step synthesis of cubic monocrystalline Y2O3:Eu3+ nanophosphor particles (10 -20 nm in grain diameter) is achieved by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP). The effect of FSP process parameters on product particle characteristics was investigated by [...]
