Iv. Krylova et al., WEAKLY-BOUND OXYGEN IN THE CATALYTIC CO OXIDATION AND EXOEMISSION FROM COMPLEX OXIDES HAVING A SPINEL STRUCTURE, Russian chemical bulletin, 46(9), 1997, pp. 1543-1545
The catalytic activity of complex oxides (MM2O4)-M-I-O-II (M-I = Cu, N
i, Co, Zn, or Mg; M-II Mn or Cr) with a spinel structure in the oxidat
ion of CO and the low-temperature (20-400 degrees C) exoemission of ne
gative charges from their surface were investigated. A relationship be
tween the catalytic activity and the emissivity of the systems under s
tudy was found. The role of the charged species of weakly bound oxygen
in exoemission and oxidative catalysis by the complex oxides is discu
ssed.
