Hg. Yang et al., Effect of Sr substitution on catalytic activity of La1-xSrxMnO3 (0 <= x <=0.8) perovskite-type oxides for catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, REACT KIN C, 73(2), 2001, pp. 311-316
La1-xSrxMnO3 (0 less than or equal tox less than or equal to0.8) perovskite
-type oxides were synthesized by the combined EDTA-citrate complexing metho
d and their catalytic activity for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide w
as investigated. Hydrogen peroxide decomposition was observed as a first-or
der reaction on these catalysts. With the increase of Sr substitution, the
catalytic activity increased accordingly. Through analysis of the kinetic r
esults, the compensation effect was found for these perovskites and Mn4+ io
ns were ascribed as the active sites of hydrogen peroxide decomposition.
