Abstract:The interaction between active metal centers and supports
can be
tailored by the judicious combination of morphologically specific
metal nanoparticles and metal oxide supports such that the efficacy
of the catalysts could be enhanced for practical suitability. Herein,
structurally engineered spherical silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were
decorated on manganese oxide nanorods (MnO2NRs), and their
catalytic efficacy toward complete oxidation of propane has been explored.
It was observed that 1 wt % Ag-loaded cataly… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
