Abstract:In this study, the catalytic activities of total oxidation of isopropanol (IPA) over MnO2-based catalysts (α-MnO2 and δ-MnO2) were studied and compared. These catalysts were synthesized by an oxidation/reduction route between ethanol and KMnO4 by using dropwise method. Their morphological, structural properties, specific surface area, pore distribution and reducibility were characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, N2 isothermal adsorption-desorption, and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR). As a result,… Show more
