biostudies-literatureUnknown13(20)Phan NHTIn this study, a novel glucose-assisted redox hydrothermal method has been presented to prepare an Mn-doped CeO₂ catalyst (denoted as Mn-CeO₂-R) for the first time. The obtained catalyst contains uniform nanoparticles with a small crystallite size, a large mesopore volume, and rich active surface oxygen species. Such features collectively contribute to improving the catalytic activity for the total catalytic oxidation of methanol (CH₃OH) and formaldehyde (HCHO). Interestingly, the large mesopore volume feature of the Mn-CeO₂-R samples could be considered an essential factor to eliminate the diffusion limit, favoring the total oxidation of toluene (C₇H₈) at high conversion. Therefore, the Mn-CeO₂-R catalyst outperfRSC advances13354-13364https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10152232biostudies-literatureA glucose-assisted redox hydrothermal route to prepare a Mn-doped CeO₂ catalyst for the total catalytic oxidation of VOCs.PMC10152232Nguyen CCNguyen Dinh MTPhan NHTfalseA glucose-assisted redox hydrothermal route to prepare a Mn-doped CeO₂ catalyst for the total catalytic oxidation of VOCs.In this study, a novel glucose-assisted redox hydrothermal method has been presented to prepare an Mn-doped CeO₂ catalyst (denoted as Mn-CeO₂-R) for the first time.
