Abstract

Cu-Al spinel oxide is a highly active catalyst for CO2conversion to CO. However, it suffers from low surface area. By depositing a silica layer, we protected the catalyst surface and preserved the Cu2+ions during the calcination process. These ions form well-dispersed Cu sites which participate in the reaction.
