Abstract

The catalytic performance of a series of LaVO_x/SBA-15 catalysts with different vanadium loadings was investigated for the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene using CO₂ as oxidant. The addition of La³⁺ has an effect of hindering carbon deposition and enhancing the stability of the catalysts. The 10%La₂O₃-15%V₂O₅/SBA-15 (wt%) catalyst exhibited the best activity and stability, giving a styrene yield of 74%. According to the results of characterization, the good performance of the catalyst could be related to the mono-dispersion of the VO₄^3- species and the synergistic action of lanthanum and vanadium.
