The oxidation of CO to CO2 has been investigated on Pt(997) single-crystal model catalysts with a flow reactor near ambient pressure with X-ray diffraction. Depending on the temperature and gas composition, the surface may consist of monatomic steps separated by 9 atom wide terraces or diatomic steps separated by 18 atom wide terraces. The diatomic stepped surface has been found to be significantly more active for CO2 production. The kinetics of the single- to double-step transition under reaction conditions has been investigated, as well as the dependence of the transition temperature with the gas composition.
