Supramolecular silver polyoxometalate architectures direct the growth of composite semiconducting nanostructures.
2009
Nanosilver on a string: Crystalline silver polyoxovanadate supramolecular architectures are employed as precursors for the synthesis of composite nanowires (see scheme). The nanostructures are composed of semiconducting vanadium oxide which forms wires with high aspect ratios, and are embedded with metallic silver nanoparticles. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Kinetic Study of the Oxidation of n-Butane on Vanadium Oxide Supported on Al/Mg Mixed Oxide
1997
The reaction kinetics of the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-butane over vanadia supported on a heat-treated Mg/Al hydrotalcite (37.3 wt % of V2O5) was investigated by both linear and nonlinear regression techniques. A reaction network including the formation of butenes (1-, 2-cis-, and 2-trans-butene), butadiene, and carbon oxides by parallel and consecutive reactions, at low and high n-butane conversions, has been proposed. Langmuir−Hinshelwood (LH) models can be used as suitable models which allows reproduction of the global kinetic behavior, although differences between oxydehydrogenation and deep oxidation reactions have been observed. Thus, the formation of oxydehydrogenation pro…

Selective oxidation of propane and ethane on diluted Mo–V–Nb–Te mixed-oxide catalysts
2007
Abstract Te-free and Te-containing Mo–V–Nb mixed oxide catalysts were diluted with several metal oxides (SiO 2 , γ -Al 2 O 3 , α -Al 2 O 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , or ZrO 2 ), characterized, and tested in the oxidation of ethane and propane. Bulk and diluted Mo–V–Nb–Te catalysts exhibited high selectivity to ethylene (up to 96%) at ethane conversions 10 % , whereas the corresponding Te-free catalysts exhibited lower selectivity to ethylene. The selectivity to ethylene decreased with the ethane conversion, with this effect depending strongly on the diluter and the catalyst composition. For propane oxidation, the presence of diluter exerted a negative effect on catalytic performance (decreasing the forma…
