学术报告的英文摘要如下：
Heterogeneous catalysis is of vital importance to the world’s economy and the sustainable development of our society. Catalyst sintering, the loss of activity and/or selectivity at high temperatures, is a great challenge and continuing concern in the application of heterogeneous catalysts. Although it is inevitable that all catalysts will sinter and deactivate over time, its immediate and drastic consequences can be avoided or postponed by a rational design of the catalyst structure. In my study, I employed porous fibers as a new form of catalyst supporting materials to enhance the sinter-resistance of catalyst nanoparticles. Porous fibers were fabricated by a rapid phase separation during electrospinning and/or the following calcination. The high surface area and porosity of fibers increased the distance among catalyst nanoparticles. The strong interactions between oxides and metal nanoparticles as well as the site-selective protective layers significantly stabilized catalysts and retained their catalytic activity. Moreover, metal nanocrystals (e.g., palladium) with precisely controlled sizes and shapes were synthesized and applied as catalysts to study their sintering behaviors under real application conditions. In addition, the sulfurization of palladium nanocubes was studied to understand the deactivation mechanism of metal nanocrystals through sulfur poisoning.
