Abstract
For a perovskite system La0.7Sr0.3Co1-xFexO3, the effect of partial su bstitution of Co by Fe on the particle microstructure and chemical com position of the surface layer has been studied. Iron incorporation was found to cause a structure rearrangement from the hexagonal (at x < 0 .05) to the cubic (at x>0.05) type, which was not accompanied by any a ppreciable variation of the surface layer composition. A transient sam ple with x= 0.05 was characterized by a high degree of misorientation of microblocks and had the highest activity in the CO catalytic oxidat ion.
