Abstract

The relationship between the hydrophobic characteristic of supportsand the reactivity of the liquid oxidation of cyclohexane using oxygen as oxidant was investigated. Co3O4 supported on amorphous silica was silylated with organosilane and characterized by FT-IR, contact angle testing and the retention of cyclohexane and cyclohexanone tesing on GC. Compared with unsilylated catalyst, the conversion of cycloheaxane was greatly enhanced with the silylated catalyst. And the correlation of reactivity and hydrophobicity of was observed.
