Cu-MCM-41 and Cu-Al-MCM-41 samples have been obtained by ion exchange of the MCM-41 and Al-MCM-41 matrices prepared by hexadecyltrimethylammonium cloride, tetraethyl orthosilicate, aluminum isopropoxide and an ammonia solution. The aluminum concentration affects the MCM-41 textural properties and large amount of extra-framework aluminum species are supposed to be present in Al-MCM-41 with Si/Al = 30. Cu-MCM-41 and Cu-Al-MCM-41 catalysts have been tested for NO selective catalytic reduction by propane in the presence of oxygen, in comparison with microporous Cu-S-1 and Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts with similar copper loading and Si/Al atomic ratio. Cu-Al-MCM-41 catalysts are less active and selective with respect to the Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts indicating that they are not suitable for NO abatement reactions.

Abstract
Cu-MCM-41 and Cu-Al-MCM-41 samples have been obtained by ion exchange of the MCM-41 and Al-MCM-41 matrices prepared by hexadecyltrimethylammonium cloride, tetraethyl orthosilicate, aluminum isopropoxide and an ammonia solution. The aluminum concentration affects the MCM-41 textural properties and large amount of extra-framework aluminum species are supposed to be present in Al-MCM-41 with Si/Al = 30. Cu-MCM-41 and Cu-Al-MCM-41 catalysts have been tested for NO selective catalytic reduction by propane in the presence of oxygen, in comparison with microporous Cu-S-1 and Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts with similar copper loading and Si/Al atomic ratio. Cu-Al-MCM-41 catalysts are less active and selective with respect to the Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts indicating that they are not suitable for NO abatement reactions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
