Synthesis of two new Nickel and CopperNickel vanadates used for propane oxidative dehydrogenation
Two new vanadates have been successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal and coprecipitation methods. Both vanadates were calcined at 600 °C and the resulting catalysts were tested on reaction of oxidative dehydrogenation of propane.
