LaSrBO4(B=Cu、Ni、 Co、 Fe、 Mn、 Cr ) was studied with respect to their preparation, characteristics and catalytic oxidation activity by means of XRD, XPS, electric conductivity and activity evaluation. Results showed that the calcination temperature has great influence on the formation of the phases of such samples, and was associated with the radius of B ion. The greater the B ion radius, the higher the calcination temperature required for the formation of the phases. It was also found that the activity and the relative content of adsorptive oxygen and lattice oxygen on the sample surf are, the artivation ellergy of electron conduction and the CO oxidation activity may vary with different B ions, and demonstrate a dual-peak pattern with the increase in the number of 3d electrons of the B ion.
The catalyst for dehydrogenation of diethylbenzene(DEB) to divinylbenzene(DVB)was studied. Potassium-promoted iron oxide catalyst was mainly used for ethylbenzene dehydrogenation. If potassium alkli or salt was used directly as promoter, it was noted that the loss of potassium component from the surface of the catalysts pellet result in deactivation. When potassium promoter was added as kaliophilite(KAlSiO4). It was shown that the latter way of adding potassium promoter not only keeps the depression of carbonaceous deposits but also controls the loss of potassium component(the value of loss of potassium component has been reduced three times) , thus making the catalyst having a higher dehydrogention activity.
