Abstract:
|
The objective of the present work is to improve the textural and structural
properties of cerium oxide by the incorporation of transition metals as well as sulphate
ions. We have incorporated tungsten, molybdenum and chromium oxide into
pure as well as sulphated cerium oxide and the catalytic systems thus prepared were
characterised using various techniques. lndustrially important reactions such as
acetalization and deacetalization, oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene, MTBE
synthesis and Beckmann rearrangement of cinnamaldoxime and salicylaldoxime have
been selected for the measurement of the catalytic activity of the systems.
The work is presented in eight chapters |
