12 Silver materials used within the GAP project Ag/SiO 2, Ag/ZnO Supported Ag with controlled particle size and shape Nanoscopic Ag (without support) Electrolyte silver Sputtered/electrochemically deposited Ag Ag foil Ag single crystals

13 Overview: Support free Silver materials used within the GAP project Silver Materials Catalysis Characterisation In situ experiments Single crystals No conversion at high pressures, beam-induced process in in situ- XAS-experiments (S AyOH low) In situ XAS: Orientation depends on crystal plane, C=O-accumulation at surface, In situ XPS Polycrystalline silver foil No conversion at high pressures, beam-induced process in in situ- XAS-experiments (S AyOH low) In situ XAS: C=O-accumulation at surface In situ XPS Electrolyte silver S AyOH 20 % (X = 2.5 % at 2 MPa) TAP: No interaction with hydrogen (as for pure SiO 2, but not Ag/SiO 2 ) Sputtered/electrochem S AyOH 23 % (X = 2.6 % at 2 MPa) XRD, XPS ically deposited silver nanoscopic silver: colloidal preparations precipitation S AyOH ca. 40 % (X = % at 2 MPa) TEM, XPS

14 Influence of ZnO-support on catalytic properties Conversion X, Selectivity S / % X Acrolein S Allyl alcohol S Propanal All catalysts: 5 % Ag Same preparation method (IW with AgNO 3 ) Reduction at 250 C Testing at 15 bar, 250 C 0 5Ag/ZnO "Merck" 5Ag/ZnO "EGA" 5Ag/ZnO "E" Different ZnO-support materials exhibit different selectivities with similar conversion

15 What influences selectivity? Hypothesis: selectivity depends on adsorption geometry. Adsorption geometry is is influenced by pressure (coverage) and structure of catalyst Pressure Increasing S AyOH with increasing partial pressure of acrolein at Ag/SiO 2 Why not with ZnO-supported catalyst?? Activation energy is not influenced by pressure - rate determing step Material Increasing S AyOH with smaller particles - larger number of kinks, edges, different exposed crystal planes, defects Support - can the support influence acrolein orientation?

22 Activation of hydrogen is structure sensitive weak (not dissoziative) adsorption of hydrogen at Ag(100) No measurable hydrogen activation using electrolytic silver Dissoziative adsorption of hydrogen at silver nanoparticles, mechanism depends on particle size/structure Different ratio edges/kinks to planes Different kind/number of defects Important role of support material Why is the selectivity to AyOH also influenced by partial pressure of hydrogen?
