By controlling the nominal composition of the catalysts, it is possible to tune their textural and acid properties (concentration and nature of acid sites) to selectively produce acrolein from glycerol or C5–C10 hydrocarbons (with low O contents and with high yields) from light oxygenates. Interestingly, these catalysts are stable when working in gas phase reactions and they are re-usable, with high resistance to leaching, when working in aqueous media.engW–Nb–O oxides with tunable acid properties as efficient catalysts for the transformation of biomass-derived oxygenates in aqueous systemsjournal article2044-4761https://doi.org/10.1039/C9CY00367Crestricted access546Química inorgánica (Química)2303 Química Inorgánica
