Size Control of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Using Reverse Microemulsion Method: Morphology, Reduction, and Catalytic Activity in CO Hydrogenation

Table 3

Quantitative results of H₂ consumption for catalysts in H₂-TPR^a.

HLB	Peak (K)	H2 consumption		% Reduction
		mol H2/mol M^b	mol H2/mol Fe
13.9	533	0.171		93
	850		1.24
23.7	558	0.163		87
	851		1.16
31.2	608	0.154		84
	842		1.12
40	640	0.142		79
	852		1.06

 ^aThe H₂ consumption was measured from the area under the corresponding peak.
^bM = Fe + Cu.
