The article “Feature of catalysis on bimetallic alloys Zr with V, Mo, and Fe in the reaction of methanol oxidation” by the Doctor of Chemistry, Professor, the head of laboratory at the Institute of Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry named after academician M.Nagiyev of ANAS Arif Afandi with his wormates Lala MAGERRAMOVA, Adila ALIYEVA, Lyudmila KOJAROVA, Elmir BABAYEV has been published in Turkish journal of Chemistry which is included into Web of Science and Scope international base.

Abstract: Catalytic behaviors of bimetallic catalysts- alloys of zirconium with vanadium, molybdenum, and iron was investigated in the oxidative dehydrogenation of methanol. The conditions for the formation of the catalyst's active surface were revealed. The conversion of methanol into formaldehyde, dimethyl ether, and dimethoxymethane on bimetallic catalysts was studied. The characterization of catalysts was performed by XRD, XPS, and SEM. It was shown that the activity of samples increases after O₂ + H₂ treatment and was associated with segregation of the active components of alloys (V, Mo) on the surface of catalysts and realization of their optimal oxidation state under catalysis conditions.
