A creative hydrothermal synthesis method followed by calcination for vanadium nitride (VN) is reported. The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) study of the catalyst shows that VN possesses a comparable catalytic performance to commercial Pt/C catalyst. The ORR catalytic activity study of vanadium nitride, vanadium carbonitride, and vanadium carbide reveals that tuning anions offers a promising rou...

Vanadium-niobium oxide catalysts containing variable amounts of vanadium and prepared by coprecipitation were investigated using 51V solid-state NMR. It was found that, in samples containing less than about 8 mol % V2O5, vanadium occurs in three different oxygen environments: in isolated tetrahedra, in comer-sharing tetrahedra (pyrovanadate), and in distorted octahedra. The number of octahedral...

The effect of vanadium oxide as support and promoter on supported rhodium catalysts on the CO hydrogenation has been investigated at 0.15 and 4.0 MPa. Rh/V,O, reduced at 723 K has a good selectivity toward oxygenated products, especially C,-oxygenates, but has a low activity added as a promoter to catalysts consisting and stability. Vanadium oxide of rhodium supported on silica and alumina show...

bimetallic pt-v supported by gamma-alumina is used to observe the changes of nheptanewhen passed over this catalyst. the pt concentration was kept constant at0.1wt% while the concentration of the vanadium was 0.5wt%. the activity andselectivity of catalyst have been determined under conditions at 450-500 degreescentigrade and 15-30 attn. the experimental results show that the addition of second...

Mesoporous vanadium nitride (VN) with high surface area and good electrical conductivity was prepared by a solid-solid phase separation method from a Zn containing vanadium oxide, Zn(3)V(2)O(8). The VN supported Pd catalyst exhibited significant catalytic activity for formic acid oxidation.

With regard to the application in a microstructured reactor, a special VOx/Al2O3 catalyst powder (3 μm) was prepared and characterised by BET, XRD, UV/Vis DRS, and Raman spectroscopy. The higher the vanadium content, the higher the degree of polymerisation of the vanadium species on the support surface and the lower the BET surface area. Pelletised powders were tested in conventional tubular re...

The catalytic performance of incorporated V-MCM-41 catalysts for the partial direct oxidation of methane to formaldehyde with molecular oxygen has been investigated. V-MCM-41 catalysts containing 0.56–1.86 wt.% V have been prepared by incorporating the vanadium ions into the framework of mesoporous siliceous MCM-41, resulting in a highly ordered structure with large BET surface area and high su...

MCM-41 was used as a support and, by using atomic layer deposition (ALD) in the liquid phase, a catalyst was prepared by consecutively loading titanium oxide and vanadium oxide to the support. This research analyzes the effect of the loading amount of vanadium oxide on the acidic characteristics and catalytic performance in the dehydration of butanol. The physical and chemical characteristics o...

This work tested two V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalysts with different vanadium precursors for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of flue gas NO using NH3 at 150–450 ̋C. While catalyst A was prepared using ammonium metavanadate (NH4VO3) through incipient impregnation, catalyst B was made according to the solvothermal method using vanadyl acetylacetonate (VO(acac)2) as the vanadium precursor. The catalyti...
