Abstract
It has been found by gas chromatography that the equilibrium adsorption of propanal, propionic and acetic acids on molybdenum-vanadium oxide catalyst can be described by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The existence of carboxylates on the catalyst surface has been proved by IR spectroscopy.
