The selective oxidative dehydrogenation of propane over niobium pentoxide

Abstract

It has been found that niobium pentoxide, calcined at temperatures between 500 and 700 °C, exhibits a high selectivity for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane, although conversion is low; increasing the partial pressure of oxygen increases the conversion without decreasing the selectivity.
