Abstract
An OCM nanoplate catalyst comprising ≥25 wt. % nanoplates; wherein a nanoplate is a three-dimensional object defined in accordance with ISO/TS 80004-2:2015; wherein a nanoplate is characterized by a first external dimension (thickness (t)≤100 nm), a second external dimension (length (l)>t), and a third external dimension (width (w)>t); wherein l and w can be the same or different; and wherein l≥5 t, w≥5 t, or l≥5 t and w≥5 t; and wherein the OCM nanoplate catalyst has general formula AaZbEcDdOx; wherein A=alkaline earth metal; Z=first rare earth element; E=second rare earth element; D=redox agent/third rare earth element; wherein the first, second, and third rare earth element are not the same; wherein a=1.0; wherein b=1.0 to 3.0; wherein c=0 to 1.5; wherein d=0 to 1.5; wherein (b>(c+d)); and wherein x balances the oxidation states.
