Abstract
IN the course of an investigation into the catalytic properties of doped nickel oxide catalysts, it was observed that these materials could oxidize propane directly at elevated temperatures into carbon dioxide and water, the rate of the reaction depending to a marked extent on the nature and concentration of dopent present.
