Al. Lapidus et al., PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALLOSILICATE SUPPORTS AND COBALT CATALYSTS BASED ON THEM, Russian chemical bulletin, 42(4), 1993, pp. 627-631
The specific surface and the porosity of silicate supports (SiO2, ZrO2
. SiO2, CoO . SiO2) were determined. The adsorption properties and th
e reducing ability of the catalysts containing 10 % Co were studied. T
he spectra of the thermo-programmed desorption of CO below 250-degrees
-C possess two signals typical of the adsorption of the catalyst on th
e oxide and metal phases. The formation of liquid hydrocarbons from CO
and H-2 is assumed to proceed at surface bifunctional centers.
