| Abstract | In this work the results of a TPR and XPS investigation of Co$_{x}$O$_{y}$–CuO mixed oxides in the range of composition Co : Cu=100:0–8:92 are reported and compared. The final catalysts were obtained by thermal decomposition in air and N$_{2}$ at 723 K for 24 h of single‐phase cobalt–copper hydroxycarbonates prepared by coprecipitation at constant pH. The Co : Cu=100 : 0 specimen calcined in air formed the Co$^{2+}$[Co$^{3}$]$_{2}$O$_{4}$ (Co$_{3}$O$_{4}$) spinel phase. The copper‐containing catalysts (Co : Cu=85 : 15–8 : 92) showed mainly two phases: (i) spinels, like Co$^{2+}$[Co$^{3+}$]$_{2}$O$_{4}$, Co 1-x 2+ Cu x 2+ [Co$^{3+}$]$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and (ii) pure CuO, the relative amount of each phase depending on the Co : Cu atomic ratio. The results of the XPS study are consistent with the bulk findings and revealed the presence of Co$^{2+}$, Co$^{3+}$ and Cu$^{2+}$ species at the catalyst surface. Moreover, the surface quantitative analysis evidenced a cobalt enrichment, in particular for the most diluted cobalt samples. The TPR study showed that the catalyst reduction is affected by a strong mutual influence between cobalt and copper. The reducibility of the mixed oxide catalysts was always promoted with respect to that of the pure Co$_{3}$O$_{4}$ and CuO phases and the reduction of cobalt was markedly enhanced by the presence of copper. Cobalt and copper were both reduced to metals regardless of the catalyst composition. On the other hand, the Co : Cu=100 : 0 specimen calcined in N$_{2}$ formed, as expected, CoO. The initial addition of copper resulted in the formation of the Cu$^{+}$Co$^{3+}$O$_{2}$ compound, besides CoO, up to a Co/Cu=1 atomic ratio at which the CuCoO$_{2}$ phase was the main component. A further addition of copper led to the formation of CuCoO$_{2}$ and CuO phases. The XPS results were in good agreement with these findings and the surface quantitative analysis revealed a less enrichment of cobalt with respect to the catalysts calcined in air. The TPR analysis confirmed that the reduction of the N$_{2}$‐calcined catalysts was also remarkably promoted by the presence of copper. Also in this case cobalt and copper metal were the final products of reduction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
