Reactivity of Pt catalysts(0.2, 0.5 wt% Pt) supported on solid super acid, $ZrO_2$ $SO_4{^{2-}}$ for low-temperature oxidation was investigated for complete oxidation of cyclohexane. Catalytic activity measured as reactant conversion in a packed-bed tubular reactor increased in accordance with the acidity and specific surface area of the catalyst activity and specific surface area of $Pt/ZrO_2$ $SO_4{^{2-}}$ catalyst were diminished by adding potassium during catalyst preparation. the catalyst activity decreased in accordance with the amount of potassium added. In addition, $Pt/ZrO_2$ $SO_4{^{2-}}$ catalyst exhibited an activity greater than that of a $Pt/SiO_2$ or $Pt/Al_2O_3$ catalyst possessing much larger specific surface area at $250^{\circ}C$ for the reactant stream of 15.000 ppm cyclohexane concentration and $18,000hr^{-1}$ space velocity, a cyclohexane conversion as high as 96% was obtained over 0.2 wt% $Pt/ZrO_2$ $SO_4{^{2-}}$, whereas cyclohexane conversions over 0.2 wt% $Pt/SiO_2$ and 0.2 wt% $Pt/Al_2O_3$ were 83 and 79%, respectively.

Surface of Pt/$Al_2O_3$ model catalyst was produced on an aluminum foil with surface area of 1 $cm^2$ The aluminum surface was oxidized under $10 ^5Torr$Torr oxygen and platinum was deposited on top of the oxide layer using a plasma evaporation source. Conversion of I-butene was performed on the model catalyst surface. Isomerization was the major reaction in I-butene conversion on the aluminum oxide layer. Addition of Pt on the aluminum oxide layer induces hydrogenation of I-butene. Selectivity for the hydrogenation increases as the amount of Pt on alumina increases.

In this work, thermal shock and simultaneous removal reaction for NOx, soot over Pt catalysts using $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$ as support were studied. The catalytic reaction test for NOx and soot were also performed independently and simultaneously, as a result, it showed different NOx removal efficiency and soot oxidation rate according to support and phase, and the onset temperature of soot oxidation has correlation to NOx removal efficiency for the catalyst. The onset temperature of soot oxidation shifted to lower temperature by generated $NO_2$ at the simultaneous reaction for NOx and soot. Also Pt/$TiO_2$ catalyst is more affected than Pt/$Al_2O_3$ on NOx removal efficiency caused by thermal shock while Pt sintering effect induced to reduce the performance on soot oxidation rate for all catalysts.

Pt-Sn/${\theta}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst for n-butane dehydrogenation reaction was prepared by incipient wetness method. To confirm the physicochemical properties of Pt-Sn/${\theta}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst, the characterization was performed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), $N_2$ sorption analysis, temperature programmed desorption of $NH_3$ ($NH_3$-TPD), temperature programmed reduction of $H_2$ ($H_2$-TPR) techniques. Also, the catalytic activities of Pt-Sn/${\theta}-Al_2O_3$ for n-butane dehydrogenation was tested as a function of pretreatment temperature, pretreatment time, reaction temperature, and the partial pressure of n-butane and hydrogen. The sum of selectivities to n-butenes consisting of 1-butene, cis-2-butene, and trans-2-butene was almost constant 95% in the range of conversion of n-butane 5-55%. The activation energy calculated from Arrhenius equation was $82.4kJ\;mol^{-1}$ and the reaction orders of n-butane and hydrogen from Power's law were 0.70 and -0.20, respectively.

In this letter, We have investigated cell characteristics of the alloy FePt-NDs charge trapping memory capacitors with high-k $Al_2O_3$ dielectrics as a blocking oxide. The capacitance versus voltage (C-V) curves obtained from a representative MOS capacitor embedded with FePt-NDs synthesized by the post deposition annealing (PDA) treatment process exhibit the window of flat-band voltage shift, which indicates the presence of charge storages in the FePt-NDs. It is shown that NDs memory with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide has performance in large memory window and low leakage current when the diameter of ND is below 2 nm. Moreover, high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide increases the electric field across the tunnel oxide, while reducing the electric field across the blocking layer. From this result, this device can achieve lower P/E voltage and lower leakage current. As a result, a FePt-NDs device with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide obtained a~7V reduction in the programming voltages with 7.8 V memory.

Pt-WO$_3$-Si$_3$N$_4$-SiO$_2$-Si-Al 캐패시터를 이용한 NO$_2$ 가스 센서를 개발하였다. 표준 실리콘 MNOS구조에 촉매 게이트로 Pt와 가스 흡착층으로 WO$_3$를 이용함으로서 전통적인 세라믹 가스 센서보다 낮은 온도에서 NO$_2$ 가스를 감지할 수 있었다. 은도 변화와 NO$_2$ 가스 농도의 변화에 따라서 디바이스의 NO$_2$ 가스 감도를 조사하였다. Pt-WO$_3$ 계면에서 NO$_2$ 이온농도의 변화에 기초로 한 가스 감지 모델을 제시하였다. 제시된 가스 감지 모델을 계면에서의 가스 반응 속도론에 의하여 분석함으로서 확인하였다.

The volatile organic compounds(VOCs) have been recognized as a major contributor to air pollution. The catalytic oxidation is one of the most important processes for VOCs destruction due to getting high efficiency at low temperature. In this study, monometallic Pt and bimetallic Pt-Ru, Pt-Ir were supported to ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. Xylene, toluene and MEK were used as reactants. The monometallic or bimetallic catalysts were prepared by the excess wetness impregnation method and were characterized by XRD, XPS, TEM and BET analysis. As a result, Pt-Ru, Pt-Ir bimetallic catalysts showed higher conversion than Pt monometallic catalyst. Pt-Ir bimetallic catalyst showed the highest conversion on the ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ support. In the VOCs oxidation, Pt-Ru, Pt-Ir bimetallic catalyst had multipoint active sites, so it improved the range of Pt metal state. Therefore, bimetallic catalysts showed higher conversion of VOCs than monometallic ones. In this study, the use of small amount of Ru, Ir to Pt promoted oxidation conversion of VOCs.

This paper reports the investigation of the physical and chemical characteristics of the prepared 3Pt-2MgO-$3ZrO_2$-$2CeO_2/Al_2O_3$ DOC, based on its hydrothermal aging. As a result of impregnating and reducing the $H_2PtCl_6$ $6H_2O$ precursor on a ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ basis, it was well dispersed into small particles with the range 2-3nm. This was because the $Al_2O_3$ acted as a barrier to prevent movement of the catalyst particles. For a hydrothermally aged catalyst for 9h at $700^{\circ}C$, its performance when purifying harmful gases decreased compared to a fresh catalyst, but its specific surface area was at the same level. This was because the performance of the catalyst was reduced by the sintering of the precious metal Pt, rather than by washcoat sintering and pore clogging. For an excessively hydrothermally aged catalyst for 9h at $850^{\circ}C$, Pt grew into an approximately 50nm class, formed a cluster compared to a fresh catalyst. The $CeO_2$ promoters also formed clusters among components of the same type, reducing their specific surface area to $114m^2/g$, which was 14% less than a fresh catalyst.

The dehydrocyclization of n-heptane was studied over $Pt-Sn/{\gamma}-Al/_2O_3$ catalysts with varying Sn content in a fixed bed continuous flow reactor. The range of experimental conditions was at the temperature between 450 and $550^{\circ}C$, the pressure $20{\times}10^5-50{\times}10^5Pa$, the contact time 0.09 and 0.27 hr and the $H_2/H.C$. mole ratio 10. The conversion and selectivity of dehydrocyclization increased with increasing temperature, but decreased with increasing pressure. When we use Sn as a promoter, the selectivity of dehydrocyclization changesa a little, but the conversion was increased and the selectivity of isomerization increased a lot. The activation energy of dehydrocyclization of n-heptane was 34.5 kcal/mol over 0.6 wt % Pt-0.6 wt % $Sn/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$.
