Adsorption properties of ethanol on different MgO/SiO2 surfaces were researched using density functional theory and the result is that ethanol is mainly adsorbed on MgO surface. The role of SiO2 in increasing the MgO crystal defects in the MgO/SiO2 has been obtained.

Here, we report a theoretical investigation, based on density functional theory, into the role of the d-states occupation on the adsorption properties of CH4, CO, H2 and CH3OH on 3d 13-atom transition-metal (TM13) clusters (TM = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu).
