Synthesis and Characterisation of CoO-NiO/MCM-41 Bimetallic Oxide Catalysts

MCM-41 material assembled with bimetallic cobalt and nickel oxides was synthesized under basic condition. The samples were characterized by XRD, HREM and BET techniques. Results showed that CoO and NiO bimetallic oxide can be introduced into the ordered pores of MCM-41 successfully. Odered structure of mesoporous materials wasn't destroyed when loading contents of CoO and NiO were 7.53wt% and 5.94wt%, respectively. It is expected that highly dispersed CoO and NiO in the pore channels of well-ordered MCM-41 structure are very potential for advanced catalytic application.
