Abstract
The surface structure and acid sites of alumina-supported molybdenum nitride Catal.ysts have been studied using temperature-programed desorption (TPD), and reduction (TPR), diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The nitride Catal.ysts were prepared by the temperature-programmed reaction of alumina-supported molybdenum oxide (12.5% and 97.1%) with NH3 at temperatures of 773, 973, and 1173 K. TPR and XRD analyses showed that γ-Mo2N was already formed at 973 K. On the basis of NH3-TPD measurements and IR spectroscopy, it was found that Lewis acid sites were predominant over Bronsted acid sites on the surface of Mo2N/Al2O3.
