Abstract :
NixMg6-xAl2 (with 0 ≤ x ≤ 6) mixed oxides catalysts were synthesized via hydrotalcite route followed by calcination under air at 800 °C. Their catalytic performances were studied towards steam reforming of methane. A performant catalyst should show simultaneously good activity, stability of crystallite size of metal particles during the test and resistance to carbon deposit.
