Study of the oxygen diffusion on three-way catalysts: a kinetic model
Résumé
A computer model was developed to take into account all the phenomena that can occur in O-18/O-16 isotopic exchange over Pt/ CeZrOx materials: adsorption/desorption on the metal, surface and bulk O diffusion. Discriminating each step of the exchange process is no longer necessary: kinetic parameters and O diffusivity can be calculated in a single experiment.
