Photoluminescence Spectra and Crystallization of θ-Al2O3 and α-Al2O3 from AlOOH-Fe(NO3)3 Gels

Diphasic boehmite derived unseeded and seeded (by either -Al₂O₃, -Fe₂O₃, or Fe(NO₃)₃) alumina gel planar monoliths were examined by DTA, XRD and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Luminescence spectra enable sensitive monitoring of the - and -Al₂O₃ crystallization in heat-treated gels due to Cr³⁺ impurity traces. Fe(NO₃)₃ unlike other seeds effectively influences crystallization of both - and -Al₂O₃. The present results are interpreted as prevailing solution or Fe³⁺ ion effect on the crystallization process.     

Effect of sodium oxide doping on solid-solid interactions between V2O5 AND Al2O3

A V₂O₅/Al₂O₃ mixed solids sample was prepared with a molar ratio of 0.41 Na₂O (4 and 10 mol%) was added in the form of sodium nitrate prior to calcination in air in the temperature range 500–1000C. Solid-solid interactions between V₂O₅ and Al₂O₃ were studied using DTA and TG curves and their derivatives together with XRD techniques.The results obtained showed that Na₂O interacted with V₂O₅ at temperatures starting from 500C to yield a sodium/vanadium compound, Na_0.3V₂O₅ which remained stable and decomposed in part by heating at 1000C. V₂O₅ exists in orthorhombic and monoclinic forms in the case of pure mixed solids and those containing 4 mol% of Na₂O and preheated at 500C, and in monoclinic form in the case of the mixed solid doped with 10 mol% of Na₂O.Heating of pure and doped mixed oxide solids at 650C resulted in the conversion of most of the V₂O₅ into AlVO₄. Doping with sodium oxide enhanced the solid-solid interaction between V₂O₅ and Al₂O₃ at 650C to produce AlVO₄. The produced AlVO₄ decomposed completely on heating at 700C to form -Al₂O₃ and V₂O₅, (orthorhombic and monoclinic forms).The presence of Na₂O was found to decrease the relative intensity of the diffraction lines of -Al₂O₃ (corundum) produced at 750C which indicated some kind of hindrance of the crystallization process.Heating of pure and doped mixed solids at 1000C resulted in a further crystallization of acorundum together with V₂O₅ and sodium vanadate, Na_0.3V₂O₅. However, the intensities of diffraction lines relative to those of the sodium vanadium compound were found to decrease markedly by heating at 1000C, indicating partial thermal decomposition into vanadium and aluminium oxides.     

Voltammetric Determination of Trace Amounts of Fenitrothion on a Novel Nano-TiO2 Polymer Film Electrode

A novel nano-TiO₂ polymer modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode was developed for the determination of an organophosphorous pesticide, fenitrothion (-NO₂), in citrate buffer solution. The electrochemical behavior of fenitrothion was characterized by using cyclic voltammetry. An irreversible form, -NO₂, was transformed into a reversible redox couple (-NHOH/-NO), and it can be used to determine trace fenitrothion by square wave voltammetry. The experimental parameters, such as film thickness, pH value, accumulation potential and time were optimized. Interestingly, a cyclic voltammetric scan was observed to be more effective than a constant potential for the accumulation of fenitrothion. A linear response over a fenitrothion concentration of 2.5×10^–8 to 1.0×10^–5M was exhibited, with a detection limit of 1.0×10^–8M (S/N=3). The high sensitivity and selectivity of this film electrode was demonstrated by its practical application to the determination of trace amounts of fenitrothion in lake water and apple samples.     

Topological complexity of potential surfaces and application to C2H2 molecule

Summary In this work, we search for the simplest complete surfaces of systems with three and four atoms, i.e. the minimal sets of critical points with their index, which are topologically consistent in the whole configuration space. Then we show the smallest change in the A₂B₂ system by requiring at least one stable acetylene configuration and one stable vinylidene configuration, like on the C₂H₂ surface. Finally, we give complete sets of minima, saddle points and maxima obtained for C₂H₂ with analytical potentials proposed in the literature and with a semi-empirical method at the CAS-CI level.     

In Situ IR Spectroscopic Studies on Molybdenum Nitride Catalysts: Active Sites and Surface Reactions

Recent IR spectroscopic studies on the surface properties of fresh Mo₂N/-Al₂O₃ catalyst are presented in this paper. The surface sites of fresh Mo₂N/-Al₂O₃, both Mo⁺ (0<<2) and N sites, are probed by CO adsorption. Two characteristic IR bands were observed at 2045 and 2200 cm^-1, due to linearly adsorbed CO on Mo and N sites, respectively. The surface N sites are highly reactive and can react with adsorbed CO to form NCO species. Unlike adsorbed CO on reduced passivated one, the adsorbed CO on fresh Mo₂N/-Al₂O₃ behaves similarly to that of group VIII metals, suggesting that fresh nitride resembles noble metals. It is found that the surface of Mo nitrides slowly transformed into sulfide under hydrotreating conditions, which could be the main reason for the activity drop of molybdenum nitride catalysts in the presence of sulfur-containing species. Some surface reactions, such as selective hydrogenation of 1,3-butadiene, isomerization of 1-butene, and hydrodesulfurization of thiophene, were studied on both fresh and reduced passivated Mo₂N/-Al₂O₃ catalysts using IR spectroscopy. The mechanisms of these reactions are proposed. The adsorption and reaction behaviors of these molecules on fresh molybdenum nitride also resemble those on noble metals, manifesting the unique properties of fresh molybdenum nitride catalysts. Mo and N sites are found to play different roles in the adsorption and catalytic reactions on the fresh Mo₂N/-Al₂O₃ catalyst. Generally, Mo sites are the main active sites for the adsorption and reactions of adsorbates; N sites are not directly involved in catalytic reactions but they modify the electronic properties of Mo sites.     

On the crystal chemistry of three copper(II)-arsenates: Cu3(AsO4)2-III,Na4Cu(AsO4)2, and KCu4(AsO4)3

The three copper(II)-arsenates were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions; their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a=5.046(2) Å,b=5.417(2) Å,c=6.354(2) Å, =70.61(2)°, =86.52(2)°, =68.43(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.035 for 1674 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a=4.882(2) Å,b=5.870(2) Å,c=6.958(3) Å, =98.51(2)°, =90.76(2)°, =105.97(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.028 for 2157 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a=12.234(5) Å,b=12.438(5) Å,c=7.307(3) Å, =118.17(2)°,Z=4, space group C2/c,R=0.029 for 1896 reflections with sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Within these three compounds the Cu atoms are square planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4+1], and tetragonal bipyramidal [4+2] coordinated by O atoms; an exception is the Cu(2)^[4+1] atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: the coordination polyhedron is a representative for the transition from a tetragonal pyramid towards a trigonal bipyramid. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ the Cu(1)^[4]O₄ square and the As(1)O₄ tetrahedron share a common O—O edge of 2.428(5) Å, resulting in distortions of both the CuO₄ square and the AsO₄ tetrahedron. The two Na atoms in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂ are [6] coordinated, the K atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ is [8] coordinated by O atoms.Die drei Kupfer(II)-Arsenate wurden unter Hydrothermalbedingungen gezüchtet und ihre Kristallstrukturen mittels Einkristall-Röntgenbeugungsmethoden ermittelt:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a = 5.046(2) Å,b = 5.417(2) Å,c = 6.354(2) Å, = 70.61 (2)°, = 86.52(2)°, = 68.43(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.035 für 1674 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a = 4.882(2) Å,b = 5.870(2) Å,c = 6.958(3) Å, = 98.51(2)°, = 90.76(2)°, = 105.97(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.028 für 2157 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a = 12.234(5) Å,b = 12.438(5) Å,c = 7.307(3) Å, = 118.17(2)°,Z = 4, Raumgruppe C2/c,R = 0.029 für 1896 Reflexe mit sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Die Cu-Atome in diesen drei Verbindungen sind durch O-Atome quadratisch planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4 + 1] und tetragonal dipyramidal [4 + 2]-koordiniert; eine Ausnahme ist das Cu(2)^{[4 + 1]}-Atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: Das Koordinationspolyeder stellt einen Vertreter des Übergangs von einer tetragonalen Pyramide zu einer trigonalen Dipyramide dar. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ haben das Cu(1)^[4]O₄-Quadrat und das As(1)O₄-Tetraeder eine gemeinsame O—O-Kante von 2.428(5) Å, was eine Verzerrung der beiden Koordinationsfiguren CuO₄-Quadrat und AsO₄-Tetraeder bedingt. Die zwei Na-Atome in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₃ sind durch O-Atome [6]-koordiniert, das K-Atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ ist [8]-koordiniert.

Determination of kinetic parameters of the FeCl3/FeCl2 systemvia a novel treatment of chronoamperometric data

Summary Computer based methods for the processing of chronoamperometric datavia convolutions are discussed. On the example of the quasi-reversible Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ couple, their application for data acquisition and determination of the heterogeneous electrochemical parameters is demonstrated. The plot of Q/i vs. t/i is superior to that employingi/I ₁, being less sensitive to distortions by charging currents once these have died away and by the effects of damping on the initially rapidly varying currents. Cyclic voltammetry is often combined with convolution or deconvolution, and digital simulation studies are also frequently performed to confirm the results.

Bestimmung kinetischer Parameter des Systems FeCl₃/FeCl₂ mittels einer neuen Verarbeitung chronoamperometrischer Daten

Zusammenfassung Computerunterstützte Verfahren zur Verarbeitung chronoamperometrischer Daten mittels Faltungsintegralen werden diskutiert. Am Beispiel des quasireversiblen Systems Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ wird die Anwendung der neuen Methoden zur Datenerfassung und zur Bestimmung der heterogenen elektrochemischen Parameter gezeigt. Der Plot von Q/i gegen t/i ist dem voni/I ₁ überlegen, da er durch Ladeströme und Dämpfung der ursprünglich stark variierenden Ströme weniger stark beeinflußt wird. Cyclische Voltammetrie wird häufig im Zusammenhang mit Konvolutions- und Dekonvolutionsmethoden angewandt; digitale Simulation zur Überprüfung der Ergebnisse wird ebenfalls oft eingesetzt.

     

Effects of Feed Composition of Coke Oven Gas on a Layered Bed H2 PSA Process

The effects of feed composition on the adsorption dynamics and the optimal process design were studied from the experimental and simulated results in the H₂ layered bed PSA with activated carbon and zeolite 5A. The breakthrough results using the base composition (56.4 vol% H₂; 26.6 vol% CH₄; 8.4 vol% CO; 5.5 vol% N₂; and 3.1 vol% CO₂) in various layered beds were compared with those using the higher nitrogen composition and the no nitrogen composition. In the breakthrough dynamics, the propagation velocity of wave front of each component was closely related to the slope of isotherm estimated at its concentration in the feed. Breakthrough behavior at each layered bed in the higher nitrogen composition showed similar trends as that in the base composition. However, the no nitrogen composition showed different breakthrough behavior from the other groups. In this feed composition, it was observed that the order of CO and CH₄ breakthrough times was reversed with a change in the carbon-to-zeolite ratio. Based on the adsorption dynamics and breakthrough behavior of each feed composition group in various layered beds, the effect of feed composition on a seven-step two-bed PSA process for the H₂ recovery from coke oven gas was investigated numerically to develop a well-designed H₂ PSA process under various operating conditions. As expected from the breakthrough results, the trends of the PSA performance in the higher nitrogen composition were similar to those in the base composition except for the slight decrease in the optimal carbon-to-zeolite ratio. However, in case of the no nitrogen composition, high purity product was obtained from the activated carbon-rich layered bed PSA because the adsorption capacity of the activated carbon for impurities was superior to that of zeolite. As a result, the optimum carbon-to-zeolite ratio at each operating condition was slightly changed depending on the propagation velocity of each component on each layer.     

Dielectric and13C NMR studies of sulfur dioxide-hydroquinone clathrates

Dielectric measurements of SO₂ quinol clathrates show that the reorientation of encaged SO₂ molecules is very rapid and depends greatly on the degree of cage occupancy. For a-quinol sample of cage occupancy = 0.57, the reorientation rate was 1 MHz at 6 K, with a reorientational activation energy of 673 J/mol. For a sample identified by¹³C NMR as-quinol, and for a-quinol sample with most cages filled with Xe, SO₂ reorientation rates are even greater, with activation energies of only some tens of J/mol. The low temperature dielectric studies show that some ethanol may be enclathrated in-quinol recrystallized from this solvent. The¹³C NMR spectra confirm the X-ray results that the lattice becomes distorted with increased SO₂ content.Dedicated to Dr D. W. Davidson in honor of his great contributions to the sciences of inclusion phenomena.

Thermal analysis in the synthesis and crystal formation of oxides

Vapour phase treatment at elevated temperatures with an activating agent is an effective method of synthesis and purposeful modification of amorphous and fine-grained crystalline substances. In the systems amorphous silica-quartz and amorphous Al(OH)₃ -crystalline-Al₂O₃ different forms of bound water are of prime importance. DTA, TG, DSC, NMR¹H,²⁹Si,²⁷Al, IR spectroscopy, electron- and optical microscopy methods have been used. The interaction of water molecules with the base skeleton and with hydroxide groups on the surface and in the bulk of the silica is of primary significance for modification of the silica structure. The proportion of different forms of the bound water determines the integral evaporation enthalpy of water. Various properties of silica are determined by weak bound water in the surface layer of the material. In the sequence Al(OH)₃ —-Al₂O₃ the structure transformation is observed according to the following scheme:-Al(OH)₃ —-AlOOH- -Al₂O₃, which takes place during the vapour phase treatment with activator.

Order and disorder in mixed metal linear chains: The homo and heterobimetallic EDTA (M(H2O)4OIOII)[M′(EDTA)] · 6H2O complexes (M = Mg,Mn, Co,Zn and Ni; M′ = Co,Ni, Cu and Zn)

Summary Polymetallic solid solutions of the ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) and six divalent metal ions exist in the range: MgMnCoZnNiCu(EDTA) · 6H₂O where + + + + + =2, 01, 0,,2, 0, 1.This type of structure is characterized by the presence of two different octahedral carboxylate-bridged coordination sites forming infinite zig-zag chains. Visible and i.r. spectra and t.g.a. analysis show that there is occupational preference for the two coordination sites in the crystalline structure.Due to this preference, and also to the structural features, the heterobimetallic MM(EDTA) · 6H₂O compounds constitute a structurally new class of materials which can be described as ordered alternating-heterobimetallic polymeric coordination complexes.     

Comparison of the crystal structures of Co2(X 2O7)·2H2O,X=P and As

Summary Crystals of Co₂(X ₂O₇)·2H₂O,X=P/As were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. Their crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction:a=6.334(1)/6.531(2),b=13.997(2)/14.206(4),c=7.637(1)/7.615(2)Å, =94.77(2)/94.74(2)°, space group P2₁/n,R=0.032/0.046,R _w=0.028/0.034 for 2423/2042 reflections and 131/119 variables. Within the twoXO₄ tetrahedra connected via a common corner to anX ₂O₇ group the average P-O bond lengths are approximately equal (1.540 and 1.543 Å), but As-O differs significantly (1.685 and 1.696 Å). A comparison with the isotypic Mn and Mg pyrophosphates shows a correlation between the ratio Me-O/X-O and the angle O-X-O.

Temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and H2O from NH4NaX and CoNH4NaX zeolites

A study has been made of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH₃ and H₂O from samples of NH₄X and CoNH₄X zeolites of various degree of exchange. NH₃ TPD peaks could be explained by interaction of NH₃ with different Brönsted and Lewis acidic centers. Moreover a water peak at high temperatures allowed interpretations of the dehydroxylation, and by reason of the characteristic desorption temperatures a particular state of the Co²⁺ ions in the CoNH₄X zeolites is postulated.

Molecular shape effects and quantum theory

Certain features of the chemist's molecular structure model, viz. size and shape, are retrieved even in the best non-adiabatic variational calculations thus far carried out for ground states of H ₂ ⁺ and H₂. Those features do not conflict with the full symmetry of exact molecular eigenstates, once they are properly understood as correlation effects.     

Isomerization of unsaturated compounds on Pd/Al2O3 in the presence of additives

Studies of the effect of zinc chloride and aluminium additives on the activity of a Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst (5 wt.%Pd) in the isomerization of heptene-1, allylbenzene,p-allylphenol and 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol) indicate that the rate and selectivity of isomerization depend on the sequence of addition of salts and reagent to the catalytic system. The simultaneous addition of ZnCl₂ or AlCl₃ with olefin, produces a 2–3 fold increase in the isomer yield compared to ethanol.
