Abstract

One-component samples containing K, Ni, and various concentrations of Mo were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation technique. Bi- and tri- component samples have been prepared from the calcined one- and bi-component samples following the same procedure. The samples were characterized by SSA, FT-IR, DRS and Raman measurements.The decrease of the ratio Ni2+(Td)/Ni2+(Oh) with the increase of Mo loading and the re-dispersion of Mo phase after the Ni addition on the one-component Mo containing samples proved the occurrence of interactions between these components in the bi-component NiMo-containing samples. Most probably Ni–Mo–O surface species with different number of Mo-oxo and Ni-oxo entities are formed, depending on the Ni/Mo atomic ratio. It may be accepted, that the Ni2+ ions are partially localized into the molybdate layer without forming well-defined phases.Two kinds of K+ ions have been determined in the corresponding samples, interacting (“bounded” K+ ions) and not interacting (“free” K+ ions) with the rest of the supported phases.The potassium deposition increased the dispersion of Mo phase and influenced the coordination state of the Mo6+ and Ni2+ ions in the bi-component KMo-, KNi-containing samples and the tri-component KNiMo-containing samples. It provoked partial transformation of the polymeric Mo6+(Oh) species into monomeric Mo6+(Td) ones and Ni2+(Td) species predomination over Ni2+(Oh) ones. Most probably, new complex K–Ni–Mo–O species were formed on the support surface in the case of the tri-component samples.
