The Co,Ba,K/CeO2system is a potential candidate to be used under the simultaneous abatement of soot and NOxin diesel exhausts. In this work, we study the interactions of NOxwith the said solid. NO2is strongly adsorbed on the Ba,K/CeO2surface through the formation of Ba and K nitrate species which are stable under He atmosphere up to 490°C. However, when Co is incorporated to the system (Co,Ba,K/CeO2catalyst), Ba nitrates become unstable at ca. 370°C, under both NO+O2and He atmosphere. DRX, FTIR, and LRS characterization shows that potassium favors the formation of the BaCoO2.93perovskite in the Co,Ba,K/CeO2catalyst calcined at 400°C. This perovskite structure is not detected when K is absent (Co,Ba/CeO2system). FTIR spectra of Co,Ba,K/CeO2treated with NO+O2indicate the formation of surface N-bound nitrate species (OBa--NO2), where NO2acts as a Lewis base. Since the said species are not detected in the samples without BaCoO2.93, it is suggested that they are related to the Ba atoms of the perovskite structure. Microbalance experiments combined with FTIR and mass spectroscopy characterization show that the nitrate species formed in the Co,Ba,K/CeO2sample can be readily decomposed to N2under a reducing atmosphere, making this system very interesting to be used as a NOxcatalytic trap. On the other hand, under He atmosphere the decomposition of nitrates only produces gaseous NOx. In addition, when the Co,Ba,K/CeO2catalyst previously treated under NO+O2atmosphere is intimately mixed with the soot and then heated in He up to 490°C, the soot particulates are partially oxidized by the surface nitrate species.
