Abstract

Mesoporous cobalt oxide-tungstophosphoric acid composite frameworks have been synthesized by structure replication from cubic mesoporous KIT-6 silica. The products possess a regular structure with uniform wall thickness (~7 nm) and large internal BET surface area (~87-141 m2/g). The pore walls of these materials consist of nanocrystalline Co3O4 and 12-tungstophosphoric acid (HPW) components with different HPW content, i.e. 6, 15 and 36 wt. %. Total X-ray scattering analysis and UV/vis spectroscopy confirmed the Keggin structure of HPW into the mesoporous frameworks. Preliminary catalytic experiments found that Co3O4-HPW composites exhibited a remarkable activity in the direct decomposition of nitrous oxide into N2 and O2.
