EnglishIn the present work, novel ceria-based nanocatalysts containing different quantities of La and Nd were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis. The effects of doping on the structural and physico-chemical properties of ceria were examined with several techniques, such as XRD, FESEM, TEM, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, H2-TPR and O2/NH3/CO2-TPD. The catalytic activity of doped ceria towards CO, NO and soot oxidation was evaluated in different conditions; in particular, the role of the catalyst-soot contact and the influence of NOx and water on the soot oxidation performances were investigated. La and Nd ions were well incorporated in ceria structure, but the final morphology was significantly altered. The introduction of trivalent cations was also associated with a higher abundance of defects and oxygen vacancies, but an excessive oxygen deficiency detrimentally affected the material reducibility and catalytic activity for CO and NO oxidation. Conversely, soot oxidation benefited from La and Nd addition. In particular, the Ce-La equimolar oxide exhibited outstanding performances in all the tested conditions, thanks to its optimal morphology and surface acidity. A detailed comparison with equimolar ceria-praseodymia allowed to investigate how acid-base sites and redox properties control the different catalytic mechanisms involved in standard and NOx-assisted soot oxidation.
