Inverse model systems to investigate metal-support interactions in Fischer-Tropsch catalysis
This thesis aims to gain insight into the effects of metal-support interaction in Co/SiO2 catalysts using an inverse model system by modifying Co3O4 nanocrystallites with silanes (i.e. tetraethoxysilane, trimethyl chlorosilane, triphenyl ethoxysilane). It is postulated that the formation of Co-O-Si...
