Methanol decomposition on a clean polycrystalline copper oxide surface was studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Methanol was adsorbed at 133 K and desorbed over a broad temperature range. When CuO was exposed to a very low dose of methanol vapor, dissociative adsorption takes place, leading to the formation of CH3O and H2O. This is attributed to the presence of preadsorbed oxygen on the CuO surface.
