Preparation and characterizations of Ce-Cu-O monolithic catalysts for ethyl acetate catalytic combus

Ce-Cu-O monolithic catalysts were prepared by using Ce0.9Cu0.101.9 solid solution or nitrate as precursors,and their catalytic performance for the combustion of ethyl acetate were studied.The catalysts calcined at a low temperature showed high catalytic activities.When calcined at high temperatures,the catalyst with Ce0.9Cu0.1O1.9 solid solution as precursor remained a high activity,while the catalyst with metal nitrates as precursors exhibited a suppressed reactivity.Therefore,the catalyst prepared with the Ce0.9Cu0.1O1.9 solid solution had better thermal stability.
