-In this work, a series of perovskite-type mixed oxide LaMo x V 1−x O 3+δ powder catalysts (x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, and 1.0, with 0.5 < δ < 1.5), prepared by the sol-gel process and calcined at 750°C, provide an attractive and effective alternative means of synthesizing materials with better control of morphology. Structures of resins obtained during the gel formation process by FT-IR spectroscopy and XRD analysis showed that all the LaMo x V 1-x O 3+δ samples are single phase perovskite-type solid solutions. The surface area (BET) between 2.5 -5.0 m 2 /g (x = 0.1 and 1.0 respectively) increases with increasing Mo ratio in the samples. They show high purity, good chemical homogeneity, and lower calcinations temperatures as compared with the solid-state chemistry route. SEM coupled to EDS and thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analyses (TGA/DTA) have been carried out in order to evaluate the homogeneity of the catalyst. Finally, the experimental studies show that the calcination temperature and Mo content exhibited a significant influence on catalytic activity. Among the LaMo x V 1-x O 3+δ samples, LaMo 0.7 V 0.3 O 4.2 showed the best catalytic activity for the topic reaction and the best activity and stability for ethane reforming at 850°C under 8 bar.
