Abstract:
|
The electron donating properties of Ce02 and its mixed
oxides with alumina have been determined from the studies
of adsorption of electron acceptors of various electron
affinities on the surface of these oxides. The catalytic
activity of these oxides towards some reactions such as
oxidation of alcohols and reduction of ketones have been
Correlated with their surface electrondonor properties. The
surface acidity/basicity of these oxides have also been
determined by titration method using a set of Hammett
indicators. |
