The switch of CO2 hydrogenation selectivity from CH4 to CO over TiO2 supported Rh catalysts is accomplished via selective encapsulation of Rh nanoparticles while exposing Rh single atoms by high-temperature reduction (HTR) according to their different strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) occurrence conditions, which can be reversed by subsequent oxidation treatment.
Keywords: CO 2 hydrogenation; encapsulation; product selectivity switch; single atoms; strong metal-support interaction (SMSI).
