An object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing an oxide catalyst used in a vapor-phase catalytic oxidation or vapor-phase catalytic ammoxidation reaction of propane or isobutene, which enables a catalyst demonstrating favorable yield to be stably produced. According to the present invention, there is provided a process for producing an oxide catalyst used in a vapor-phase catalytic oxidation or vapor-phase catalytic ammoxidation reaction of propane or isobutane, comprising the steps of: (i) preparing a catalyst raw material mixture containing Mo, V and Nb and satisfying the relationships of 0.1 ‰¤ a ‰¤ 1 and 0.01 ‰¤ b ‰¤ 1 when atomic ratios of V and Nb to one atom of Mo are defined as a and b, respectively; (ii) drying the catalyst raw material mixture; and (iii) calcining a particle, in which a content of the particle having a particle diameter of 25 µm or less is 20% by mass or less and a mean particle diameter is from 35 to 70 µm, in an inert gas atmosphere. |
