Abstract
The use of complementary physicochemical tools (XRD, Raman spectroscop y, XPS, P-31 NMR, and electron microscopy techniques), sometimes used in in situ conditions has allowed to evidence the dynamic processes oc curring during the oxidation of light alkanes on the vanadium phosphor us oxide (VPO) system. The transformations of the VPO system in the co urse of the oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride and of the oxida tion of propane to acrylic acid are contrasted in connection with the evolution of the catalytic performances.
