Effect of lithium impurities on the catalytic properties of Fe-Te-Mo-O, a catalyst for the oxidation of tret-butyl alcohol to metacrolein

摘要

The optimal composition of catalyst for methacrolein obtaining from tertbutyl alcohol was defined by the promotion of Fe-Te-Mo-Ox catalyst by alkali metals, lithium, in particular. The effect of temperature and contact time was examined for the oxidation reaction of tertbutyl alcohol. The conditions under which methacrolein optimal yield is achieved were determined. The catalyst with Li/Mo=0.05 ratio may be used in the industry for the first stage of methacrilic acid productions.
