The dispersionthresholds of MoO3, NiO, ZnO on three rutile TiO2 carriers were obtained with XPS, and com-pared with those on anatase TiO2 with high specific surf are area. Ammonia Extraction methodwas used to identify the surface oxide species interarting with support surface in different strengthand it was found that the proportions of oxides that can not be extrarted by ammonia extractionare different for MoO3, NiO and ZnO which are supported on rutile TiO2.展开更多
