Abstract
An effect of different mechanical activation conditions (different activator types) on the phase composition, texture characteristics of catalysts based on manganese-substituted cordierite ceramics, as well as the activity thereof in the reaction of ammonia oxidation was studied. It is demonstrated that it is preferable to use an energy-intensive planetary ball mill with a high power density, since it provides the preparation of smaller particles. The finely crystallized manganese cordierite with a minor impurities content, low specific surface, low pore volume and a high activity in the reaction of ammonia oxidation is obtained at their subsequent sintering.
