Photocatalytic reactions on chromium containing mesoporous silica molecular sieves (Cr-HMS) under visible light irradiation: decomposition of NO and partial oxidation of propane

Hiromi Yamashita, Katsuhiro Yoshizawa, Masao Ariyuki, Shinya Higashimoto, Masakazu Anpo and Michel Che

Cr-containing mesoporous silica molecular sieves (Cr-HMS) containing tetrahedrally coordinated isolated chromium oxide (chromate) moieties can operate as an efficient photocatalyst for the decomposition of NO and the partial oxidation of propane with molecular oxygen under visible light irradiation.
