Аннотация:Mixed cerium-zirconum-titanum oxide layers: CeOx+TiO2, CeOx+ZrO2+TiO2, ZrO2+TiO2 - on titanium
were formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation technique in the electrolytes with different ratio of Ce(SO4)3: Zr
(SO4)2 and investigated by the complex of physical-chemical methods. Their activity was studied in the peroxide
oxidation of sulfur compounds (thiophene, thioanizole and dibenzothiophene) and the desulfurization of diesel
fuel. Element and phase composition of the PEO-coated samples affect their catalytic activity.
ZrO2+TiO2+CeOx systems with the largest content of zirconium showed the highest catalytic activity in oil
desulfurization. Their catalytic activity correlates with the presence of the double oxides ZrTiO4 and Ti2ZrO6 in
the coating composition. The decrease in the activity of catalysts when they are used in consecutive cycles can be
accounted for by the etching of the coatings in the area of the pores. This drawback one can overcome by the
addition of an ionic liquid namely 4-(3′-ethylimidazolium)-butanesulfonate, which increases not only the activity,
but also the stability of the catalysts. Under these conditions, the structure and activity of the catalyst did
not change significantly over several reaction cycles. The combination of PEO treatment and deposition of the
ionic liquid allowed one not only to oxidize model substrates, but also carry out the desulfurization of diesel fuel
to a residual sulfur content of less than 10 ppm.
