Abstract

This study investigates a series of MgnV2O5+n (n=1, 2, 3) oxygen carriers referred to as MV1, MV2, and MV3 for 

chemical looping oxidative dehydrogenation (CL-ODH). The materials were synthesized via a sol-gel method, and their 

structural, redox, and catalytic properties were evaluated over 10 cycles. After cycling, both MV1 and MV2 exhibited 

the formation of secondary phases (MgV3O8 and Mg2V6O17, respectively), while MV3 retained its framework. Among 

the samples, MV2 demonstrated notable catalytic performance, achieving 85% ethylene selectivity and 14.5% ethylene 

yield. This performance is primarily attributed to the balanced redox characteristics of the Mg2V2O7-based framework, 

accompanied by structural modification during cycling.
