Furthermore, the cata- lytic performances of these catalysts were evaluated by NO＋CO model reaction. The obtained results indicated that： （1） The catalysts acquired by co-impregnation method exhibited stronger interaction owing to the more sufficient contact among each component of the catalysts compared with the catalysts obtained by stepwise-impregnation method, which was beneficial to the improvement of the reduction behavior; （2） The excellent reduction behavior was conducive to the formation of low valence state copper species （Cu＋/Cu0） and more oxygen vacancies （especially the surface synergetic oxygen vacancies （SSOV, Cu＋-n-Mn（4-x）-）） during the reaction process, which were beneficial to the adsorption of CO species and the dissociation of NO species, respectively, and further promoted the en- hancement of the catalytic performance. Finally, in order to further understand the difference between the catalytic performances of these catalysts prepared by co-impregnation and stepwise-impregnation methods, a possible reaction mechanism （schematic diagram） was tentatively proposed.展开更多
