A. Aboukais et al., OXIDATIVE DEHYDROGENATION OF ETHANE AND PROPANE ON CUTH OXIDE CATALYSTS, Reaction kinetics and catalysis letters, 53(1), 1994, pp. 107-114
CuThO oxides prepared with different atomic ratios Cu/Th have been tes
ted in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane and propane. These cata
lysts are active and selective in the formation of ethene and propene,
but the activity and selectivity change with the nature of the alkane
.
