Strong adsorption of propene was supposed to be the main reason for the deep oxidation. It was found that gaseous oxygen in the feed and the reaction temperature had great influence on the reaction. To obtain a relative high selectivity to propene, the reaction temperature should be maintained at 150∼250 ◦C with a proper content of gaseous oxygen in the feed for a certain catalyst and some modifiers which could weaken the adsorption of propene on the catalyst surface would be favorable.
