N. Okazaki et al., SYNERGY OF COAL2O4 AND AL2O3 IN COAL2O4-AL2O3 CATALYSTS FOR SELECTIVEREDUCTION OF NITROGEN MONOXIDE WITH ETHENE IN EXCESS OXYGEN, Chemistry Letters, (8), 1998, pp. 807-808
A well-mixed CoAl2O4-Al2O3 catalyst calcined at 800 degrees C showed h
igher activity for the title reaction than that calcined at 500 degree
s C as well as a roughly-mixed CoAl2O4-Al2O3 catalyst. The results of
characterization suggested that in a CoAl2O4-Al2O3 catalyst the synerg
y of CoAl2O4 and Al2O3 particles at their interfaces is a critical fac
tor causing its high activity.
