IR study of interaction of propylene at CoO-MgO and CoO-MoO3-MgO surfaces

IR spectra of propylene adsorbed in CoO-MgO and CoO-MgO-MoO₃ solid solutions show that a surface -complex with Co²⁺ ions is formed, strongly bonded in the former case and weakly in the latter. Thus, introduction of Mo strongly modifies the catalytic properties of Co²⁺ active centers. In the presence of oxygen, allylic species, aldehyde and carboxylate complexes appear.

Calorimetric studies of aluminosilicate catalysts heats and entropies of cumene adsorption on cation substituted metakaolinite

Differential heats of cumene adsorption at 293 K on Ca-, Sr- and Ba-substituted metakaolinites at surface coverages up to 0.1 have been measured on a Calvet microcalorimeter. The presence of two energetically different adsorption centers are shown to be determined by the nature of the exchanged cation; the adsorption heats decrease in the sequence Ba, Sr, Ca, Mg.

M?ssbauer spectroscopic studies of passivated layers of iron-containing catalysts for ammonia synthesis

Combined conversion electron (CEMS) and transmission -ray (MS) Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to study the structure of passivated layers of promoted and unpromoted iron-containing catalysts. In both catalysts the oxide-coated films were found to consist of small paramagnetic (at 300 K) clusters of ferric oxide.

Formation of methane in methanol synthesis on zinc-chromium catalysts

The rate of methane formation on zinc-chromium catalysts is described by zero-order rate law, If the catalyst is activated by copper, the rate of methane formation increases due to a decrease in the activation energy of the reaction. Presumably the formation of methane and methanol takes place on different active centers.

Thermal and infrared spectrum analyses of natural and synthetic andersonites

The thermal decompositions of natural and synthetic andersonites were studied. Two partly overlapping dehydration steps and three partly overlapping decarbonation steps were observed. The second dehydration and the first decarbonation steps also partly overlap. During decarbonation, the gradual formation of sodium diuranate and monoclinic and hexagonal phases in the Na₂U₂O₇-CaUO_4–x system was proved. The results were correlated with measured infrared spectra using site and factor group analysis and X-ray structure analysis. The chemical formula inferred for natural andersonite, Na₂Ca[UO₂(CO₃)₃] 5.6H₂O, agrees with that proposed for its synthetic analogue.

Zusammenfassung Die thermische Zersetzung von natürlichem und synthetischem Andersonit wurde untersucht. Sie umfasst zwei teilweise überlappende Entwässerungs- und drei teilweise überlappende Decarboxylierungsstufen. Der zweite Entwässerungs- und der erste Decarboxylierungsschritt überlagern einander ebenfalls teilweise. Während der Decarboxylierung wird die allmähliche Bildung von Natriumdiuranat und monoklinen und hexagonalen Phasen des Systems Na₂U₂C₇-CaUO_4–x nachgewiesen. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit den gemessenen IR-Spektren unter Benutzung der site- und Faktor-Gruppenanalyse sowie Röntgenbeugungsuntersuchungen korreliert. Die für natürlichen Andersonit abgeleitete Formel Na₂Ca[UO₂(CO₃)₃].5,6H₂O stimmt mit der für synthetischen Andersonit vorgeschlagenen überein.

Modification of Fe species in FeNaY zeolite by NaCl treatment

The treatment of Fe(III)NaY zeolite with NaCl solution does not lead to a back-exchange of ferric species but the cationic Fe rearranges into new complexes which are more deeply reduced by hydrogen and less self-reduced by vacuum heat treatment than the parent Fe species in FeNaY zeolite.

Thermal degradation of some cross-linked copolymers of vinyl acetate

Pyrolysis in combination with gas chromatography and thermogravimetry were used to study the thermal degradation of some cross-linked copolymers of vinyl acetate with divinylbenzene and ethylstyrene. The temperature was varied in the range 200° and 800°. The thermal decomposition products of the analyzed copolymers vary greatly, both with the temperature and with the composition of the samples. The experimental data obtained led to the assumption of a complex degradation mechanism, evidenced by the overlapping processes and the unexpected contents of certain evolved compounds as a function of composition.

Die Temperatur wurde im Bereich von 200–800° variiert. Die thermischen Zersetzungsprodukte sind sehr unterschiedlich, abhängig von der Temperatur und der Zusammensetzung der Probe. Aus den experimentellen Daten wird auf einen komplexen Zersetzungsmechanismus geschlossen, der durch die Überlappung der Prozesse und durch das auftreten bestimmter unerwarteter Verbindungen in Abhängigkeit von der Zusammensetzung bestätigt wird.

Thermal decomposition of iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate in air in the presence of basic magnesium carbonate

Results on the thermal decomposition of iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate in the presence of basic magnesium carbonate are presented and discussed. These results are compared with those for the mixture of iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate with basic beryllium carbonate. While no reaction occurs between the components in the case of basic beryllium carbonate, basic magnesium carbonate reacts readily with iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate.

Kinetics and mechanism of OsO4 catalyzed oxidation of chalcones by Ce4 in aqueous acetic sulfuric acid media

Kinetics of OsO₄ catalyzed oxidation of chalcones by Ce⁴⁺ has been studied in aqueous acetic-sulfuric acid medium in the temperature range 313 to 338 K. The order in [oxidant] is zero while the order with respect to [substrate] and [catalyst] are each fractional. The rate of the reaction decreased with increase in percentage of acetic acid while [H⁺] had practically no effect on the rate The rates of various substituted chalcones (with substituents in the phenyl. ring attached to the moiety) are in the orderp-CH₃>m-CH₃>H>p-Cl>m-Cl>m-NO₂>p-NO₂. A mechanism in which formation of a cyclic ester between chalcone and OsO₄ in a fast step followed by its decomposition in a rate-determining step is envisaged.

Kinetics of oxidation of acrolein on a vanadium-molybdenum oxide catalyst

A kinetic study has shown that, in the range of low conversions, the reaction rate depends only on the partial pressure of oxygen. Comparison of the oxidation of acrolein and I-deuteroacrolein suggests that the splitting of the H–CO bond is not rate-limiting.

Differential scanning calorimetry study of reactions of phenyl glycidyl ether with phosphoric acid

The reactions of phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) with phosphoric acid in three molar ratios have been studied by means of DSC alone. The results obtained from isothermal measurements are as follows:H=–91.0 kJ/mole PGE(1:1 molar ratio);H=–100.5 kj/mole PGE (1:2/3 molar ratio).The DSC curves obtained from dynamic experiments are multipeaked and giveHvalues higher than those obtained from isothermal measurements. These results can be explained by taking into account the acid concentration, the different reactivities of the hydrogens of the phosphoric acid and the possibility that secondary reactions occur.

Die bei dynamischen Experimenten erhaltenen DSC-Kurven weisen viele Peaks auf und ergebenH-Werte, die größer als die durch isotherme Messungen erhaltenen sind. Diese Ergebnisse können erklärt werden, wenn die Säurekonzentration, die unterschiedliche Reaktivität der Wasserstoffatome der Phosphorsäure und die Möglichkeit des Verlaufs sekundärer Reaktionen in Rechnung gestellt werden.

Isomerization and secondary metathesis of 2-butenes over a MoO3/Al2O3 catalyst

Transformation of cis- and trans-2-butene at 40°C was investigated over a MoO₃/A₂O₃ catalyst reduced with hydrogen and subjected to different pretreatments. Isomerization is accelerated by hydrogen preadsorbed either at low or high temperatures. The cometathesis of 2-butenes with the 1-butene intermediate, however, is enhanced only by hydrogen preadsorbed at low and suppressed by hydrogen adsorbed at high temperatures.

Some peculiarities in regeneration of zeolite-containing cracking catalysts by carbon dioxide

Catalytic properties of Mn and La oxides that are acceptors of CO₂ in regeneration of zeolite-containing cracking catalysts in the presence of carbon dioxide have been studied. Regeneration rate of coked catalysts by carbon dioxide in the presence of Mn and La significantly increases. During regeneration, coke oxidation to Co and redistribution of hydrogen in carbonaceous fragments take place to produce methane and hydrogen. Activation energy of methane and hydrogen formation equals 46 kcal/mol. Variation of activation energy with temperature is typical for Co formation.
