摘要:
Structural, textural and catalytic activity of CoO-Mn2O3 system as being influenced by La2O3-doping (0.75-3 mol%) and calcination temperatures (300-500 degrees C) were investigated. The techniques employed were XRD, N-2-adsorption-desoprtion at -196 degrees C, EDX and catalysis of H2O2-decomposition in aqueous solution at 30-50 degrees C. The results revealed that the investigated system consisted of nano-sized Co2MnO4 as a major phase together with un-reacted portion of Co3O4 and gamma-Mn3O4. Doping with the smallest amount of La2O3 greatly increased the surface molar ratio of Mn/Co (88 %) for the solid calcined at 500 degrees C with subsequent increase of the catalytic activity more than 12-fold for solids calcined at 500 degrees C. The increase of La2O3-dopant above 0.75 mol% decreased progressively the surface molar ratio of Mn/Co with subsequent decrease in the catalytic activity which still measured higher values than that measured for the un-doped catalyst.
