Abstract

The influence of heat treatments on the dispersion and thermal stability of series of titania-silica mixed oxide supported vanadia catalysts has been investigated by X-ray diffraction, infrared, oxygen chemisorption and surface-area measurements. The results of V2O5/TiO2-SiO2 catalysts calcined at 773 K suggest that vanadia (upto 20 wt%) is in highly dispersed state on the carrier. Thermal treatments at 873 K and above transform vanadia and titania into crystalline phases and then TiO2 anatase into rutile. In the absence of vanadia the TiO2-SiO2 remains unaffected by thermal treatments.
