In the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) process that converts ethylbenzene to styrene, vanadium-based catalysts, especially V2O5, are used in a CO2 atmosphere to enhance process efficiency. Here we demonstrate that the activation energy of V2O5 can be manipulated by exposure to high pressure CO2, using V2O5 nanowires (VON). The oxidation of V4+ to V5+ was observed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The ratio of V4+/ V5+ which the typical comparable feature decreased . We also found an increase in the interlayer distance in VON from Å to Å using X-ray diffraction patterns. We observed changes in the peaks of the stretching mode of bridging triply coordinated oxygen (V3AO), and the bending vibration of the bridging VAOAV, using Raman spectroscopy. We confirmed this propensity by measuring the CO2 pressuredependent conductance of VON, up to 45 bar. of decrease in the maximum conductance compared with that of the pristine VON was observed. The results of this study suggest that ODH process performance can be improved using the VON catalyst in a high pressure CO2 atmosphere. | Interaction between V2O5 nanowires and high pressure CO2 gas up to 45 bar Electrical and structural study
