A. Jentys et al., CHANGES IN THE OXIDATION-STATE OF TRANSITION-METAL CONTAINING MCM-41 DURING DENO(X) REACTIONS, Catalysis letters, 47(3-4), 1997, pp. 193-198
The oxidation state of Co, Pt and Rh containing MCM-41 after co-adsorp
tion of NO, CH4, and O-2 in the presence of water vapor was studied by
in situ XANES experiments. All catalysts were oxidized after the adso
rption of NO and reduced after the coadsorption of NO and CH4. The pre
sence of water vapor did not influence the oxidation/reduction of Rh/M
CM-41 and Pt/MCM-41,while Co/MCM-41 was oxidized by the presence of H2
O at reaction temperature.
