Abstract
An automated method has been developed and validated for the preparation of Mo, V, Sb, and Nb mixed oxides, known to catalyse the oxidation of propane to acrylic acid, supported on silica microspheres with a narrow range of particle size. Catalytic tests were performed on sixteen, nominally identical, materials using a conventional microreactor system. Measures of catalytic performance, activity and productivity of acrylic/acetic acids each fell within a ±5% range of the median values. This is remarkable considering the number of factors and variables involved in the preparation and evaluation of the catalysts.
