Physico-chemical properties and catalytic behavior of LnSrNiO(4) mixed oxides for NO decomposition

A series of LnSrNiO(4)(A(2)BO(4), Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd) mixed oxides with K2NiF4 structure, in which A-site(Sr) was partly substituted by individual light rare earth element, was prepared. The solid state physico-chemical properties including crystal structure, defect structure, IR spectrum, valence state of H-site ion, nonstoichiometric oxygen, oxygenous species, the properties of oxidation and reduction etc. as well as the catalytic behavior for NO decomposition on these mixed oxides were investigated.

The effect of the substitution of light rare earth elements at A-site on catalytic behavior for NO decomposition was elucidated.
