NITROUS OXIDE PRODUCTION CATALYST AND METHOD Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: inorganic synthesis catalysts. SUBSTANCE: invention provides catalyst for production of nitrous oxide by oxidizing ammonia with oxygen or oxygen-containing gas, which catalyst includes manganese-containing active component, iron oxide, alkali-earth metal oxide, and alumina. In particular, active component is mixed amorphous oxide phase Mn-R with nonstoichiometric analysis MnR_xO_y (0,05≤2,24; 2,08≤y≤5,36) wherein R is bismuth and/or lanthanoid, or mixture amorphous phase MnR_xO_y and crystalline manganese-containing phase. Catalytic process is carried out at temperature 250 to 450 C. EFFECT: increased catalytic activity and selectivity at lowered active component percentage. 2 cl, 5 3x, 1 tbl, 23 ex
