Abstract

In-situ Mössbauer studies for dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene has been carried out. The results show that the formation of iron oxide is essentially Fe3O4 and there is no KFeO2 under the reaction condition. As a promoter, the existence of potassium is in favour of the electron exchange between Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions.
