Abstract: | The effect of the composition of nanosized catalysts, produced by thermal decomposition of Co(II) and Cu(II) formates deposited on ZrO2, SBA-15, and MCM-41, on their activity in the deep oxidation of methane was investigated. It was shown that the activity of the catalyst depends on the nature of the support and on the Co/Cu ratio. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 41, No. 6, pp. 331–335, November–December, 2005. |
