“…CO oxidation [23][24][25], NO reduction [26] and WGS reaction [27]. Ceria nanorods exhibited superior activity in oxidation of CO, 1,2-dichloroethane, ethyl-acetate and ethanol [19,[28][29][30], methanol conversion in presence of CO 2 [31], methanol [32] and acetaldehyde decomposition [33] compared to ceria cubes and octahedra. Moreover, shuttleshaped particles composed of closely packed ceria nanorods displayed higher activity for CO oxidation compared to ceria nanorods [34], which has been attributed to enhanced porosity, surface area and oxygen deficiency of these nanoshapes compared to ceria rods.…”
