Abstract
ABSTRACT The nanoparticles of Bi2O3 supported on mesoporous MCM-41 were prepared in a simple way and were well characterized. The oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone under 1 atmospheric pressure of air in the absence of any solvent and reducing agents with Bi2O3/MCM-41 nanocomposites were considered. These nanoparticles of Bi2O3 supported on mesoporous MCM-41 were found to be the very effective catalysts for cyclohexane oxidation with air in a temperature range of 280–370 ˚C. The influences of reaction temperature, the loading amount of Bi2O3 and space velocity on the oxidation of cyclohexane were also studied, and optimized conditions were investigated.
