Effect of Calcination Temperature on the Structure and Catalytic Properties of MnOx/Ca2O3 in the Reaction of CO and Ethane Oxidation

详细

Effect of the calcination temperature of the MnOx/Ga2O3 system on its structural and catalytic properties in the reaction of oxidation of CO and hydrocarbons. The dependences of the catalytic activity of MnO_x/Ga₂O₃ in the reactions of CO and ethane oxidation on the calcination temperature exhibit an extremal behavior. The maximum values of activity are observed upon calcination of the system at 700°C, i.e., at the temperature that is limiting for the existence of a solid solution of manganese ions in γ-Ga₂O₃. The structural changes occurring with increasing calcination temperature are accompanied by a substantial decrease in the specific surface area of a sample. The observed rise in the specific catalytic activity (by a factor of ~7 upon an increase in the preliminary-calcination temperature from 600 to 800°C) confirms that the thermal activation effect exists for the given system.
