“…Among the advantages of this method, is that exsolved NPs are homogeneously distributed in size and surface density, and the socketing into the surface of the perovskite support results in enhanced thermal and hydrocarbon/coking stability, as well as strain thereby potentially enhancing activity. , Following this approach, numerous transition-metals, such as Ni, , Pd, Ru, , Pt, Co, Mn, and Fe, have been doped on the B-site of stoichiometric or A-site deficient mixed perovskite oxides and subsequently exsolved under a range of reducing atmospheres or through fast electrochemical reduction. Among the transition metals, iridium is a scarce but key element being used in a variety of applications including water splitting reactions, − fuel cells, , hydrogenation reactions, methane reformation, , and automotive exhaust catalysis. − Specifically, CO oxidation applied in air purification and pollution control in automotive exhaust uses more than 60% of the annual production of noble metals. The commonly used catalysts are Pt, Rh, and Pd deposited on oxide supports, , which, even though highly active, suffer from sintering and poisoning .…”
