TL;DR: In this paper, the reduction process of WO3 as bulk or supported on TiO2 was used for the isomerization of n-pentane and 1-pentene to isopentane.

TL;DR: In situ characterization by XPS and UPS of bulk commercial MoO 3 and the equivalent five atomic layers of MoO3 deposited on TiO 2 before and following the reduction by hydrogen at different temperatures led to the identification of the chemical species on the surface.

TL;DR: In situ XPS-UPS characterization of bulk WO 3 following the exposure of the sample to hydrogen at different temperatures up to 773 K enabled to define the reduction conditions at which each of the different W 2 O 5 and WO 2 phases could be obtained as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed catalytic reactions of n-pentane and 1-pentene as a function of reaction temperature, on different molybdenum oxides and metal surfaces.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used surface XPS-UPS techniques to analyze the surface electronic structure correlation of catalytic activity-surface electronic structure correlations for 1-pentene and n-pentane.
