Mo2C as a carrier of Cu-Co-Fe oxide catalysts in oxidation reaction of CO

Physicochemical characteristics of Cu-Co-Fe oxide catalysts applied to molybdenum carbide and their catalytic activity in the CO oxidation reaction have been studied. It has been shown that for a more efficient use of Mo2C as a carrier of catalysts, it should be processed with a mixture of HF + HNO3 acids with the aim to increase the defectiveness of the structure.
