Porous Single-Crystalline Rare Earth Phosphates Monolith to Enhance Catalytic Activity and Durability.

ABSTRACT: Rare earth phosphate (XPO₄) is an extremely important rare earth compound. It can exhibit excellent activity and stability in catalytic applications by modifying its inherent properties. Porous single-crystalline (PSC) PrPO₄ and SmPO₄ with a large surface area consist of ordered lattices and disordered interconnected pores, resulting in activity similar to nanocrystals and stability resembling bulk crystals. Herein, we present a study in which centimeter-scale PSC PrPO₄ and SmPO₄ monoliths were developed and oxygen defects in the crystal lattice were stabilized using single-crystal nature to synergistically improve catalytic activity in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODE). The surface structure of the oxygen vacancies with un
