The reaction of methanol and CO2is an ideal route for the utilization of CO2resources and the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC), which is an important fuel and fuel-additive. In this work, we developed a catalyst of CeO2nanoparticles (CeO2NPs) loaded on Co3O4nanosheets (Co3O4NSs) with the Ce/Co molar ratio of 3/7 (Ce3-NPs/Co7-NSs) which could efficiently catalyze the reaction. The formation activity and the yield of DMC reached 16.8 mmol·gcat-1·h−1and 47.2 % (based on methanol), surpassing most reported catalysts, especially at a relatively low temperature of 120 ℃. Characterization results indicated that the Co3O4NSs could enhance the amounts of oxygen vacancies and CO2adsorption but reduce methanol adsorption. The adsorption equilibrium between methanol and CO2is crucial for the titled reaction, and thein-situIR spectra confirmed that the catalyst could simultaneously activate CO2and methanol and the reaction involves a Langmuir-Hinshelwood (LH) mechanism. The present strategy for constructing a catalyst of CeO2nanoparticles loaded on Co3O4nanosheets provides an efficient catalyst for the DMC synthesis from CO2and methanol and offers an important reference in building other catalysts with adjustable adsorption capacities of CO2and methanol.
