Series of Mn/TiO2 catalysts modified with various contents of Nd for low-temperature SCR were syn-thesized. It can be found that the appropriate amount of Nd can markedly reduce the take-off temper-ature of Mn/TiO2 catalyst to 80 ℃ and NOx conversion is stabilized over 90％ in the wide temperature range of 100-260 ℃. 0.1Nd-Mn/Ti shows higher N2 selectivity and better SO2 resistance than Mn/Ti catalyst. The results reveal that Nd-doped Mn/TiO2 catalyst exhibits larger BET surface area and better dispersion of active component Mn2O3. XPS results indicate that the optimal 0.1Nd-Mn/Ti sample possesses higher concentration of Mn4+and larger amount of adsorbed oxygen at the surface compared with the unmodified counterpart. In situ DRIFTS show that the surface acidity is evidently increased after adding Nd, especially, the Lewis acid sites, and the intermediate (-NH2) is more stable. The reaction mechanism over Mn/Ti and 0.1Nd-Mn/Ti catalysts obey the Eley-Rideal (E-R) mechanisms under low temperature reaction conditions. H2-TPR results show that Nd-Mn/TiO2 catalyst exhibits better low-temperature redox properties.
