Mo–Fe catalysts with different Mo dispersions were synthesized with fast (Cat-FS, 600 r·min−1) or slow stirring speed (Cat-SS, 30 r·min−1) by the coprecipitation method. Improving the stirring speed strengthened the mixing of the solution and increased the dispersion of particles in the catalyst, which exhibited favorable activity and selectivity. The byproduct (dimethyl ether (DME)) selectivity increased from 2.3% to 2.8% with Cat-SS, while it remained unchanged with Cat-FS in a stability test. The aggregation of particles and thin Mo-enriched surface layer decreased the catalyst surface area and slowed down the reoxidation of reduced active sites with Cat-SS, leaving more oxygen vacancies which promoted the formation of DME by the nonoxidative channel.

The prepared bifunctional Nb-OMS-2 catalysts are promising candidate in partial oxidation of methanol into dimethoxymethane at a lower temperature suggesting that there is an important temperature regime when forming active sites for DMM production.
