Mainly exposed crystal facets and controllable morphology play a key role in the final performance of the preparation of specific nanomaterials. In the present study, a metal–organic framework pyrolysis method without adding solvent modifiers was developed. By adding CO in the calcination atmosphere to change atmosphere ratio, Fe₃O₄ nanostructures are exposed with different crystal planes and evaluated their performance in NH₃-SCR reaction. This study proves that SCR catalytic activity of Fe₃O₄ nanocrystals is dependent on morphology and crystal facet. Compared with materials exposed (100), catalysts with more (111) show stronger deNOₓ performance. The preferential exposure of Fe₃O₄ (111) crystal facets increases the concentration of adsorbed oxygen on the catalyst, showing higher surface acidity, and enhances the interaction among NO, O₂ and catalyst, which is conducive to SCR reaction. This is supported by DFT calculations. The results present a great application prospect in preparing nanomaterials with specific crystal structures to effectively treat pollutants.
