Effect of g-C3N4 nano-structure on catalytic performance of CoOx/g-C3N4 in catalytic combustion of toluene

Boron-induced controlled synthesis of Co-nano particles over Bx(CN)y matrix for CO hydrogenation in aqueous media

“…Since the auto-oxidation of surface cobalt species may generate CoOx, here, the region I can be correlated with the reduction of autooxidized CoOx supported on the surface of the support. In contrast, region II shows the reduction of CoOx particles, which strongly interacted with the support [49]. Region III, relatively at a very high temperature, can be linked with the reduction of large CoOx particles, which do not interact with the support [49].…”

“…In contrast, region II shows the reduction of CoOx particles, which strongly interacted with the support [49]. Region III, relatively at a very high temperature, can be linked with the reduction of large CoOx particles, which do not interact with the support [49]. Since the area under peak III is highest in the case of the B4M1 catalyst, it can be correlated to the reduction of large isolated cobalt oxide particles, which are challenging to reduce at low temperatures due to their size.…”
