Electrical and electrochemical properties of undoped CePO4 and doped Ce0.9Cd0.15−xLi2xPO4 nanomaterials (x = 0 and 0.02)

Preparation of two different crystal structures of cerous phosphate as solid acid catalysts: their different catalytic performance in the aldol condensation reaction between furfural and acetone

“…In addition, cerium phosphate was also widely used as a catalyst or catalyst carrier in selective reduction of NOx, CO oxidation, n-butane oxidation and hydrogenation and exhibited good catalytic performance. [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44] In particular, Michikazu et al reported that cerium phosphate may act as a bifunctional catalyst with both Lewis acid and weak base sites, which was used to chemoselective acetalization of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural with alcohols and exhibited high catalytic performance. 45 Additionally, Wang et al reported cerium phosphate can be used as solid Lewis acid catalyst for dehydration of glucose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and achieved 61% yield of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with 97% conversion of glucose.…”
