- Abstract
- FT-IR measurements show that methacrolein adsorbs on SnO2, and transforms to strongly held precursors of complete oxidation products at 300-400-degrees-C. In SnO2-Sb2O4 mechanical mixtures in the presence of oxygen however, where the remote control has been shown to operate, no such effect is observed. An identical effect is observed when the adsorbed species produced by the contact of isobutene and oxygen with the catalysts are studied. This suggests that the remote control modifies SnO2 surface sites in such a way that the adsorption strength of intermediate oxidation products of methacrolein is depressed. This could be the reason for the increased selectivity in isobutene oxidation observed when Sb2O4 is mixed with SnO2.
