The study of selective oxidation of propylene on complex oxides by means of temperature-programmed desorption

Journal Article · · J. Catal.; (United States)
Temperature-programmed desorption of propylene from the following catalysts: Co/sub 6/Mo/sub 12/Bi/sub 0/in equilibrium/sub 5/Fe/sub 0/in equilibrium/sub 75/Oxi, Bi/sub 2/MoO/sub 6/, Bi/sub 2/Mo/sub 3/O/sub 12/, 5% Sb in SnO/sub 2/, USb/sub 3/O/sub 10/, BiFeMoOxi, Bi/sub 3/FeMo/sub 2/Oxi, Cu/sub 2/O, and CoMoO/sub 4/ into a stream of oxygen or air showed that propylene is adsorbed only on one type of site but can react on this site to form acrolein either with lattice oxygen or adsorbed oxygen. Both reactions proceed via the same intermediate. The rate-determining step in the oxidation was desorption of acrolein. Spectra, tables, and 21 references.
