Comparison study on Molybdena-Titania supported on TUD-1 and TUD-C synthesized via sol-gel templating method: properties and catalytic performance in olefins epoxidation

A direct comparison between nanostructured Technische Universiteit Delft-1 (TUD-1) and Technische Universiteit Delft-Crystalline (TUD-C) as catalyst supports for molybdenum doped titania catalysts was carried out. The characterizations results showed that TUD-1 is a mesoporous amorphous silicate mat...
