The stability and catalytic performance of K-modified molybdena supported on a titanate nanostructured catalyst in the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane.

Titanate nanotube supported molybdena was evaluated as a catalyst in the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propylene. The synthesized titanate nanotubes with high specific surface area were prepared by a hydrothermal method. The characterization of pristine nanotubes was performed XRD, Raman, SEM, TEM and BET.
