Abstract

The oxidation of olefin compounds to equivalent epoxides or oxides using metal oxides as catalyst is an important step in the manufacturing of large quantities of fine and pharmaceutical grade chemicals. The chemical property of vanadium as metal in its oxide state is of interest particularly in application during o�le e oxidation. Well-defined metal oxide nanostructures on the walls of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are attractive as catalyst in the oxidation reaction because of their high specific surface area and formation of novel composite material with enhanced physical and catalytic properties.
