The redox reaction between KMnO4 and Co(NO3)2 was designed and readily utilized for the scalable integration of spinel MnxCo3−xO4 nanosheet arrays in three-dimensional ceramic honeycombs by controlling the reaction temperature. The Co2+ can reduce MnO4− to form Mn–Co spinel oxide nanosheet arrays uniformly on the channel surface of cordierite honeycomb. The novel platinum group metal free oxide nanosheet array integrated ceramic honeycomb monolith shows good low-temperature catalytic activity for propane oxidation, with the 50 % conversion temperature achieved at 310 °C, which is a much lower temperature than that over the wash-coated commercial Pt/Al2O3. These integrated Mn–Co composite oxide nanoarrays may hold great promise for the construction of advanced monolithic catalyst for high-performance and low-cost emission control. Effective honeycomb coating: The reaction between Co2+ and MnO4− is a facile strategy for the integration of Mn–Co composite oxide nanosheet arrays onto the 3 D cordierite honeycomb substrate. The well-defined structural characteristics and distribution allow effective mass transport and enable improved reaction chemistry and kinetics.
