Abstract
The formation of condensation products in the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde over a commercial silver-pumice catalyst containing 37 w t % Ag was studied by electron spectroscopy and thermogravimetric anal ysis. Two forms of condensation products (polycrystalline and filament ous) were found, and the mechanism of their formation was suggested.
