Molybdenum catalysts supported on γ-Al2O3 and γ-Al2O3-MgO mixed oxides with varying MgO loadings (5, 10, 15, 20 wt% with respect to γ-Al2O3), were prepared by wet impregnation method. The textural properties of synthesized Mo catalysts were explored by various analytical techniques such as N2 adsorp...
