Abstract

Magnesia-supported tungsta catalysts have been prepared by impregnation, with different tungsta contents and calcined at different temperatures in air. All samples are active for propan-2-ol dehydrogenation above 473 K, and selective towards acetone formation. At low W content, acetone is further oxidized. The behavior has been related to the W-containing phases existing in the samples.
