abstract = {Metal exsolution reactions enable the preparation of
metal-oxide nano-composites from oxide parent materials in a
single thermal reduction step. In this process, reducible
metals are released from the doped oxide and nucleate in the
form of finely dispersed, supported nanoparticles. A
reversible exsolution and re-dissolution reaction could
provide an effective way to regenerate catalysts, where the
surface structure and functionality dynamically adapt to the
ambient gas environment. However, the reversibility of
exsolution reactions is often limited. We investigate
reversibility limitations in the niobium and nickel co-doped
perovskite SrTi0.95−xNb0.05NixO3−δ with varying Ni
doping concentrations between x = 0.005–0.1. Combined
morphological, structural and chemical analyses of the
material response upon consecutive thermal treatments in
reducing and oxidizing environments reveal a non-correlated
bulk and surface response of the material upon redox
treatment. While the bulk structural changes are mostly
reversible, no re-dissolution of the exsolved surface
nanoparticles is detected for the investigated
time–temperature window (T = 800 °C, t = 5 h for
reduction and reoxidation, respectively). Instead, a
modification in the nanoparticle distribution and an
increased surface wetting of the support by the exsolved
metal species are observed upon reoxidation of the
nanoparticles.},
