Innovative process for the synthesis of vanadyl pyrophosphate as a highly selective catalyst for n-butane oxidation

Vanadyl pyrophosphate (VPO) catalysts are used for the selective oxidation of light alkanes, which are based on vanadyl hydrogen phosphate hemihydrate (VOHPO40.5H2O) as the precursor. Catalyst precursor with well-defined crystal size has been successfully synthesized for the first time, using a simp...
