Abstract

Well-defined Ln₂Sn₂O₇ powders (Ln = La, Sm and Gd) with a phase-pure pyrochlore structure were synthesized by hydrothermal reaction. The catalytic activities of Ln₂Sn ₂O₇ powders for methane combustion were measured. Methane oxidation started at 500°C and increased with oxidation temperature. Catalytic methane combustion is strongly influenced by the presence of oxygen vacancies that form by breaking Sn-O lattice bonds as the temperature increases. Addition of manganese to the rare earth pyrochlores improved methane oxidation activity. Manganese-doped samarium stannate pyrochlore (Sm₂Sn _1.8Mn_0.2O₇ shows highest the catalytic activity. Light-off and complete oxidation temperatures were measured at about 400 and 650°C, respectively.
