Ai. Boltalin et al., Preparation of highly dispersed copper oxide by thermal destruction of binuclear Cu-II monofluoroacetate in zeolite Y cavities, RUSS CHEM B, 49(8), 2000, pp. 1365-1368
Thermal destruction of the binuclear monofluoroacetate complex Cu-2(CH2FCOO
)(4) deposited on zeolite Y was studied by the TG-DTA and ESR methods. Larg
e particles of copper oxide are not formed and fine dispersion of CuO in th
e matrix is observed due to low temperatures of the destruction of the supp
orted complex (240-250 degrees C) and restriction of the process mainly to
targe cavities of the zeolite.
