Project06Development of oxidation catalyst utilizing low-cost tin oxides

・Establishment of a size-selective synthesis method of tin oxide clusters
・Discovering that CO oxidation reaction activity changes depending on the composition of the clusters
・Suggesting the potential for establishing highly active catalysts utilizing low-cost base metal materials

Supporting size-selectively synthesized tin oxide clusters onto silica

Sn (II) site and CO oxidation activity increase with decreasing size
