On the Role of Oxygen Defects in the Catalytic Performance of Zinc Oxide

”Systematic errors”, namely, oxygen vacancy sites in ZnO, are the active centers for the hydrogenation of CO to give methanol. Nanocrystalline ZnO with a high density of oxygen vacancies was prepared from special organometallic precursors, and its catalytic properties for methanol synthesis were stu...

Zusammenfassung:”Systematic errors”, namely, oxygen vacancy sites in ZnO, are the active centers for the hydrogenation of CO to give methanol. Nanocrystalline ZnO with a high density of oxygen vacancies was prepared from special organometallic precursors, and its catalytic properties for methanol synthesis were studied.
