Abstract

The present specification relates to a yolk-shell particle, a catalyst, and a method of manufacturing the same.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A yolk-shell particle comprising:
an aluminum silica shell; and
a rare earth metal oxide core provided in the aluminum silica shell,
wherein at least a portion of the shell is disposed to be spaced apart from the core,
wherein the rare earth metal oxide core includes at least one of a cerium (Ce) oxide formed by reacting Ce(NO 3 ) with polyvinyl pyrrolidone at a reaction temperature of 150° C., a scandium (Sc) oxide, a yttrium (Y) oxide, a lanthanum (La) oxide, an actinium (Ac) oxide, a praseodymium (Pr) oxide, a neodymium (Nd) oxide, a promethium (Pm) oxide, a samarium (Sm) oxide, a europium (Eu) oxide, a gadolinium (Gd) oxide, a terbium (Tb) oxide, a dysprosium (Dy) oxide, a holmium (Ho) oxide, an erbium (Er) oxide, a thulium (Tm) oxide, a ytterbium (Yb) oxide, and a lutetium (Lu) oxide, or an alloy of two or more thereof,
wherein when the rare earth metal oxide is cerium (Ce) oxide, the yolk-shell particle has been calcined at a temperature of 550° C., and
wherein the core and the shell are spaced apart from each other by a distance of 5 nm or more and less than 500 nm.

2. The yolk-shell particle of claim 1 , wherein the shell has a hole.

3. The yolk-shell particle of claim 1 , wherein the rare earth metal oxide core includes the cerium (Ce) oxide.

4. The yolk-shell particle of claim 1 , wherein a diameter of the rare earth metal oxide core is 0.1 nm or more and less than 500 nm.

5. The yolk-shell particle of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the silica shell is 10 nm or more and less than 500 nm.

6. A catalyst comprising:
the yolk-shell particle according to claim 1 .

7. The catalyst of claim 6 , wherein the catalyst is used in an oxidative halogenation of C1 hydrocarbons reaction or an OCM (direct oxidative coupling of methane) reaction where ethane and ethylene are manufactured by direct conversion from a methane gas.

8. A method of manufacturing a yolk-shell particle, comprising:
forming a silica shell on a surface of a rare earth metal oxide core; and
forming the yolk-shell particle by disposing at least a portion of the shell to be spaced apart from the core.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the forming of the yolk-shell particle includes forming a hole in the shell.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the forming of the yolk-shell particle includes denaturalizing the shell into an aluminum silica shell.

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
before the forming of the silica shell, manufacturing the metal oxide core by using a rare earth metal oxide precursor, a surfactant, and a solvent.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
after the forming of the yolk-shell particle, performing a hydrothermal reaction of the yolk-shell.
