Effect of different calcination environments on the vanadium phosphate catalysts for selective oxidation of propane and n-butane

Vanadium phosphate catalysts were synthesized via VOPO42H2O and were calcined in two different hydrocarbon reaction environments, i.e.n-butane/air and propane/air. Both catalysts are denoted VPDB and VPDP, respectively. Both catalysts exhibited a good crystalline with characteristic peaks of pyroph...
