Supported vanadium oxide catalysts are important industrial materials for a wide array of chemical transformations. The condition of surface hydration is of particular interest as a reflection of the state of a freshly manufactured catalysts prior to its activation in catalytic reactors or under conditions of photocatalysis where surface vandia are exposed to moisture. Under such conditions, the surface vanadia species undergo structural changes as evidenced by 51V MAS NMR in this study. For low surface vanadia densities on titania, a modest trend towards the formation of dimeric and oligomeric vanadia species was observed under hydrated conditions when compared to the corresponding dehydrated catalyst, which contains a large abundance of monomeric vanadia species. The incorporation of tungsten oxide to the V2O5/TiO2 catalyst with low surface vanadia density, however, is found to better stabilize the surface vanadia species on the titania support upon hydration than its tungsta-free counterpart. This stabilization is not an intrinsic property of more extensively oligomerized surface vanadia species in the presence of tungsten oxide, evidenced by conditions of high concentrations of surface vanadia oligomers on titania that exhibit dramatic structural changes upon hydration. At high surface vanadia coverage under hydrated environments, the simultaneous observation of crystalline V2O5 nanoparticles and a mobile phase of surface vanadia species is apparent, where vanadia species are dissolved in the thin hydration layer on the titania support. These new findings have broad implications on the behavior of other metal oxide species on high surface oxide supports under hydrated conditions.
