title: Preparation of MnOx/TiO2 composites and their properties for catalytic oxidation of chlorobenzene.
abstract: MnO(x)/TiO(2) composites with different atomic ratio of Mn/Ti were prepared by sol-gel, solvothermal and coprecipitation method, respectively. The catalytic tests on chlorobenzene (CB) removal ability of all 15 catalysts were performed in a fixed-bed flow reactor and compared to each other. Experimental results showed that when the atomic ratio of Mn/Ti reached 1:4, the activity of the catalysts prepared by three methods reached their highest value, particularly the catalyst with the Mn/Ti atomic ratio of 1:4 prepared by sol-gel method showed higher catalytic activity than the catalysts with the same atomic ratio prepared by other methods at temperature between 100 and 300 degrees C. From the microstructure characterization by XRD, SEM, EDS, BET, and TPR, it could be known that the combined TiO(2) phases of anatase and rutile and a good dispersion of manganese oxides contributed to a good catalytic performance in the catalyst prepared by the sol-gel method.
