Synthesis and thermal decomposition of barium peroxytitanate to barium titanate

Barium peroxytitanate, Ba₂[Ti₂(O₂)₄(OH)₄(H₂O)₄], was synthesized and its thermal decomposition in the temperature range from 298 to 1173 K was investigated. The intermediates at 423, 533, 773 and 873 K were identified by means of quantitative analysis, IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. On the basis of the data obtained, a scheme of its thermal decomposition was suggested.Isothermal treatment was carried out at 873 and 973 K for different periods. The optimum conditions of preparation of tetragonal barium titanate with high crystallinity were determined, i.e. annealing for 390 min at 873 K.

Oxidation of ammonia on a bismuth-manganese oxide catalyst

The doping of MnO₂ with small quantities of Bi₂O₃ results in an increase of the surface oxygen bond energy. Accordingly, the values of the specific catalytic activity and selectivity to nitrous oxide are lower for the doped catalyst than for pure MnO₂. The mechanism of low temperature ammonia oxidation is the same on both catalysts.

Qualitative quantum-chemical models for surface OH groups of oxides

The dependence of the acidity and frequency characteristics of surface OH groups on the number and electronegativity of their bonded nonoxygen atoms has been analyzed in terms of the Del Re localized molecule orbitals method. The model suggested is applied, in particular, to interpret the nonmonotonous dependence of the stretching vibration frequencies for single-coordinated OH groups on the electronegativity of nonacid atoms for a great variety of oxides.

Kinetics of cerium(IV) oxidation of propionic acid in perchloric acid: Role of solvent

The oxidation rate of propionic acid (PROA) by cerium(IV) in aqueous perchloric acid (1.0–6.0 mol/dm³) is proportional to the PROA concentration, the total order of the reaction being two. It was found that the rate is related to the values of Hammett's acidity function (H₀) in agreement with both Zucker-Hammett's hypothesis and Bunnett-Olsen's criterion, the water acting as a proton transfer agent. A mechanism consistent with the findings is proposed.

Thermogravimetric and kinetic study of a clodronic acid complex formed with sodium

Thermal stability of the clodronic acid complex formed with sodium (Na₂CCl₂(HPO₃)₂ ·4H₂O) was studied using both dynamic and isothermal thermogravimetric analyses as well as mass spectra. The thermal decomposition has two stages: dehydration and loss of two molecules of hydrogen chloride. Using the isothermal TG data the first step was found to be a phase-boundary reaction while the second step obviously cannot be described with just one reaction mechanism. The final residue of the dynamic TG analyses above 810 K was found to be sodium metaphosphate.

Zusammenfassung Sowohl mittels dynamischer und thermogravimetrischer Untersuchungen als auch and Hand von Massenspektren wurde die thermische Stabilität des mit Natrium gebildeten Säurekomplexes Na₂CCl₂(HPO₃)₂·4H₂O untersucht. Die thermische Zersetzung vollzieht sich in zwei Schritten: Dehydratation und Verlust von zwei Molekülen HCl. Auf Grund der isothermen TG Angaben ist der erste Schritt eine Phasengrenzreaktion, während der zweite Schritt mit einem einzigen Reaktionsmechanismus nicht eindeutig beschrieben werden kann. Das Endprodukt der DTG Analyse oberhalb 810 K erwies sich als Natriummethaphosphat.

The interaction of pyridine with the surface of Y-type decationized zeolite has been studied by IR spectroscopy over a wide temperature range. It has been shown that the first step of the transfer of a hydroxyl proton to a base is the formation of a strong hydrogen bond. The protonated pyridine exists in free and hydrogen-bonded forms.

Effect of carbon support on the hydrogen sorption of platinum

The hydrogen sorption of carbon-supported platinum catalysts, studied by the potentiodynamic method, differs significantly from that of unsupported platinum. The difference depends on the preparation method and on the nature of the support. Possible explanations are suggested as (i) some kind of interaction between metal and support atoms during impregnation, (ii) high dispersity (amorphous structure) and (iii) hydrogen spillover onto the carbon support.

Seven complex compounds exhibiting the compositions Ni(en)₃Ni(CN)₄·H₂O (I), Ni(en)₃Ni(CN)₄ (II),-Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ (III), Ni(en)Ni(CN)₄·2H₂O (IV), Ni(en)Ni(CN)₄ (V), Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ · 2.5H₂O (VI) and-Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ (VII) were prepared from the system Ni-en-[Ni(CN)₄]^2–-H₂O. These compounds were examined by the methods of infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffractometry, UV-VIS reflectance spectroscopy, and also by the measurement of magnetic moments. The thermal stability, the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition and the mutual transformations were investigated with a derivatograph. The reactions proceeding according to the following schemes were observed if the system was heated to appropriate temperature: (I)(II)(III)(V)(IV) and (VI)(VII)(III)(V)(IV) Process (VII)(III) represents isomerization. The reversibility of the process (V)(IV) is due to the high hygroscopicity of the anhydrous complex. The changes in structure in the course of the individual processes are discussed.
