title: Enhancement in the reducibility of cobalt oxides on a mesoporous silica supported cobalt catalyst.
abstract: The silylation of SBA-15 enhances the reducibility of cobalt oxides on a SBA-15 supported cobalt catalyst, and consequently increases the catalytic activity for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbons from syngas and selectivity for longer chain products.
