Metal-support interaction induced ZnO overlayer in Cu@ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalysts toward low-temperature water-gas shift reaction.

ABSTRACT: The water-gas shift reaction (WGSR) plays a pivotal role in many important industrial processes as well as in the elimination of residual CO in feed gas for fuel cells. The development of a high-efficiency low-temperature WGSR (LT-WGSR) catalyst has attracted considerable attention. Herein, we report a ZnO-modified Cu-based nanocatalyst (denoted as Cu@ZnO/Al₂O₃) obtained via an in situ topological transformation from a Cu₂Zn₁Al-layered double hydroxide (Cu₂Zn₁Al-LDH) precursor at different reduction temperatures. The optimal Cu@ZnO/Al₂O₃-300R catalyst with appropriately abundant Cu@ZnO interface structure shows superior catalytic performance toward the LT-WGSR with a reaction rate of up to
