The adsorptions and co-adsorption of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide on nonstoichiometric nickel and nickel-copper manganites have been investigated in situ by transmission infrared spectroscopy. Time-dependent and temperature-dependent data have been acquired to investigate the nature of the molecule-surface interactions. The surface chemistry of NO was found to be particularly rich, involving numerous surface species (mononitrosyls, dinitrosyls, adsorbed N2O, nitrites/nitrates), whereas that of CO was somewhat simpler. The competitive adsorption of NO and CO was evidenced. However, with time, NO tended in all cases to colonize the surface of the samples, and Cu+ cations were shown to be the only access points of CO to the surface of such oxides in the presence of NO. Finally, a time sequence of reactions was shown in the case of NO adsorption.
