Decomposition of HO on Pure and ZnO-Treated CoO/AlO Solids by G.A. El-Shobaky, N.H. Amin, N.M. Deraz, S.A. El-Molla

“…Thus, the maximum increase in the value of k 20°C due to doping with 2.12 wt% ZnO attained a value of 543% while the corresponding increase in the value of the reaction rate constant per unit surface area, k̄ 20°C , was 331%. Precalcination at 400–600°C of Co 3 O 4 /Al 2 O 3 solids subjected to ZnO treatment did not modify the mechanism whereby the catalytically active constituents (surface cobalt species) were involved in the reaction although their concentration was altered without affecting their energetic nature.…”
