Summary
Iron, aluminium and mixed iron aluminium pillared clays were prepared by partial hydrolysis method and doped with 10% V and Mo. The samples were characterised by XRD, FTIR and surface area and pore volume measurements. Oxidation of cyclohexanol with hydrogen peroxide was done as probe reaction to test catalytic activity. Iron pillared systems exhibited maximum activity. The effects of various reaction variables on the reaction were studied.
