Facile synthesis of a green metastable MoO3 for the selective oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde

Metastable MoO 3 was successfully synthesized by a chemical transformation of α-MoO 3 and characterized by TG-DSC, BET, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. The prepared material was highly active and selective to formaldehyde formation from methanol over a wide range of reaction temperatures. The formaldehy...

Zusammenfassung:Metastable MoO 3 was successfully synthesized by a chemical transformation of α-MoO 3 and characterized by TG-DSC, BET, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. The prepared material was highly active and selective to formaldehyde formation from methanol over a wide range of reaction temperatures. The formaldehyde selectivity can reach up to 99 % at about 98 % methanol conversion. The stability of the prepared catalysts was also investigated.
