Ni-CeO2-MgO-Al2O3 catalysts with bimodal meso-macropores were synthesized using one-pot spray pyrolysis with dextrin as a structuring agent. These catalysts showed improved catalytic activity and stability in dry reforming of methane compared to dense catalysts. The formation of macropores from phase segregation and dextrin decomposition affected the physical and chemical features of the catalysts.
Ni-CeO2-MgO-Al2O3 catalysts with bimodal meso-macropores have been synthesized by one-pot spray pyrolysis using dextrin as a structuring agent for dry reforming of methane. The formation of macropores originating from phase segregation and the decomposition of dextrin positively affects both the physical and chemical features of the catalysts, and therefore, the bimodal porous catalysts outperform the dense catalysts in catalytic activity and stability. The volume and size of macropores in a bimodal porous catalyst are dependent on the concentration of dextrin. Based on diverse characterization results, this morphological change has been revealed to induce the distortion of the CeO2 lattice and embedding of Ni nanoparticles, resulting in the strong interaction between the metal and support/promoter and high oxygen storage capacity. The catalyst with balanced bimodal pore structures and optimized physicochemical parameters showed the best performance, considering both catalytic activity and stability with high sintering/coking resistance in the dry reforming of methane.
