Working Paper

Abstract

A high-throughput method for the screening of miniature mesoporous metal oxide oxidation catalysts were developed. This was achieved by using multiple robotic techniques including 3D printing. The catalysts (Co₃O₄, Au/Co₃O₄, Pd/Co₃O₄ and Co/Mn mesoporous metal oxides) were screened for their activity towards the oxidation of morin.
