Surface-modified carbon nanotubes catalyze oxidative dehydrogenation of n-butane.
Butenes and butadiene, which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of polymers and other compounds, are synthesized traditionally by oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-butane over complex metal oxides. Such catalysts require high O2/butane ratios to maintain the activity, which leads to unwanted product oxidation. We show that carbon nanotubes with modified surface functionality efficien...
متن کاملOxidative dehydrogenation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene using multi-walled carbon nanotubes
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been used in the oxidative dehydrogenation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene in an organic solvent (toluene) using molecular oxygen as the oxidant, and in the absence of trace amounts of metals. The process is very selective and almost no anthraquinone is formed. Thermal treatment of the MWCNTs at 2600 °C favors deoxygenation of the support and markedly impro...
متن کاملVanadium Oxide Supported on Al-modified Titania Nanotubes for Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Propane
In this study, characterization of vanadia supported on Al-modified titania nanotubes (TiNTs) synthesized by the alkaline hydrothermal treatment of TiO2 powders has been reported. A promising catalyst for oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of propane was prepared via the incipient wetness impregnation method. The morphology and crystalline structure of TiNTs were characterized by transmission elec...
متن کاملThe Ti3AlC2 MAX Phase as an Efficient Catalyst for Oxidative Dehydrogenation of n‐Butane
Dehydrogenation or oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of alkanes to produce alkenes directly from natural gas/shale gas is gaining in importance. Ti3 AlC2 , a MAX phase, which hitherto had not been used in catalysis, efficiently catalyzes the ODH of n-butane to butenes and butadiene, which are important intermediates for the synthesis of polymers and other compounds. The catalyst, which combines b...
متن کاملThe role and stability of Li2O2 phase in supported LiCl catalyst in oxidative dehydrogenation of n-butane
This study was aimed at defining the role of active phases in supported LiCl and LiCl–DyCl3 catalysts in the catalytic oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-butane. LiCl supported on silica displayed the highest activity and selectivity in n-butane ODH compared with other alkali metal halides. Addition of DyCl3 increased the activity. TPO, XRD and Raman light scattering (RLS) data showed that Li...
