Formaldehyde can be produced from methanol and methyl mercaptan using partial catalytic oxidation. Catalysts were prepared and characterized, using several techniques. Vanadia based catalysts showed remarkable stability, and good selectivity. The preparation procedure influenced the composition of the materials. The presence of the mixed oxide CeVO₄ is important.
