Oxidation of propylene to acrylic acid on a Fe?Mo?Bi oxide system

Data obtained in a flow reactor show that iron(III) molybdate doped by bismuth can oxidize propylene to acrylic acid directly in one step. Part of the catalyst works in a partially reduced form and in the preparation of the catalyst the surface acidity must be controlled.

Influence of the gas phase on metallic reference electrodes used in work function measurements

Contact potential differences between electrodes of Pt, Au and Ta of different surface finishing were measured by the dynamic condenser method in propylene and oxygen. Propylene is irreversibly adsorbed, thus changing the work function. This renders the electrodes unsuitable as standard electrodes for work function measurements on catalysts in the atmosphere of hydrocarbons, but they may be used in adsorption studies on oxygen.

On the dissociation mechanism of carbonates and their isomorphous mixture

The thermal decomposition processes of carbonate minerals are analyzed by comparison of the notions on chemical bonds in crystals and modern concepts on solid-phase reactions. It is shown that depending on the mechanism of thermal dissociation, the carbonate minerals most widespread in nature may be divided into two groups: first, CaCO₃, SrCO₃ and BaCO₃, characterized by decomposition temperatures close to the equilibrium values and undergoing recombination on cooling; and second, MgCO₃, MnCO₃, FeCO₃ and ZnCO₃, with dissociation temperatures exceeding the equilibrium values by 250° and recombining only at high partial pressures of CO₂ (above 1000 bar).

Zusammenfassung Die thermischen Zersetzungsprozesse von Carbonatmineralien wurden auf der Basis der Vorstellungen über die chemischen Bindungen in Kristallen und moderner Konzeptionen über Festphasenreaktionen analysiert. Es wird gezeigt, dass die in der Natur weitverbreitetsten Carbonatmineralien, abhängig vom Mechanismus der thermischen Zersetzung, in zwei Gruppen unterteilt werden können: die erste umfasst CaCO₃, SrCO₃ und BaCO₃ und ist durch Zersetzungstemperaturen nahe den Gleichgewichtswerten und durch Rekombination beim Abkühlen charakterisiert, zur zweiten gehören MgCO₃, MnCO₃, FeCO₃ und ZnCO₃ mit Dissoziationstemperaturen, die die Gleichgewichtswerte um etwa 250° überschreiten, und die nur bei hohen CO₂-Partialdrücken (über 1000 bar) rekombinieren.

Toluene disproportionation and coke formation over fluorided alumina and hydrogen-mordenite

Toluene transformation was investigated on a fluorided alumina and a protonic mordenite under hydrogen (0.8, 12 bar) and under nitrogen (12 bar). Hydrogen pressure considerably improves the catalytic stability of H-mordenite by inhibiting the formation of coke. Moreover, hydrogen eliminates part of the coke deposited by reaction under nitrogen, and regenerates the activity of the mordenite. On the contrary, hydrogen has no effect in the case of fluorided alumina. The particular behavior of the mordenite is attributed to its very strong acidity.

Steady state catalytic properties and oxygen binding energy of cadmium-molybdenum catalysts in methanol oxidation

On normal cadmium molybdate the products of methanol oxidation are primarily CO₂ and H₂. After the introduction of excess MoO₃ to reach Mo/Cd=1.2, methanol is oxidized to formaldehyde and carbon monoxide via a consecutive scheme. The oxygen binding energy in the steady state for the first sample is by 30 kcal/mol higher than that for the second catalyst. The activation energies of methanol conversion are 11.5 and 20 kcal/mol, respectively.

The thermal behaviour of solvates in the LiCI(MgCl2, AlCl3) water-1,4-dioxane systems

The thermal behaviour of the solvates and mixed solvates in the LiCl(MgCl₂, AlCl₃)-water-1,4-dioxane systems was investigated by means of DTA measurements of the melting behaviour and by quasi-isothermal and quasi-isobaric investigations of the thermal decomposition processes.The compounds melt incongruently. The positions of the melting points and the processes of thermal decomposition confirm the assumption that 1,4-dioxane is bonded in the first coordination sphere in the mixed solvate of lithium, but in the cases of magnesium and aluminium chloride it is bonded via hydrogen-bonds and not directly to the cations. Only for the lithium and magnesium compounds does the decomposition of the anhydrous solvates result in anhydrous chlorides.

Zusammenfassung Das thermische Verhalten der Solvate und Mischsolvate der Systeme LiCl, (MgCl₂, AlCl₃)-Wasser-1,4 Dioxan wurde mit Hilfe von DTA-Messungen zum Schmelzverhalten, und quasi-isothermen und quasi-isobaren Untersuchungen zum Ablauf der thermischen Zersetzung Untersucht. Die Verbindungen schmelzen inkongruent. Die Lage der Schmelzpunkte und der Verlauf der thermischen Zersetzung bekräftigen die Vorstellungen, daß 1,4 Dioxan im Mischsolvat des Lithiums in der ersten Koordinationsphäre direkt am Kation, hingegen bei Magnesium und Aluminium über Wasserstoffbrücken gebunden ist. Die Zersetzung der wasserfreien Solvate führt nur im Fall der Lithium- und Magnesiumverbindungen zu den wasserfreien Chloriden.

A thermal study on moisture absorption by epoxy composites

The water sorption kinetics of an epoxy matrix-carbon fiber composite with different degrees of polymerization was studied. It was observed that the diffusion coefficients, determined perpendicularly to the fiber direction, are increased by increasing the cure degree. Only a small portion of the bonded water is released when the specimen are heated to 200 °C.The effects of moisture on some properties of the composite were also investigated. TheT _g values determined on fully polymerized samples, show lowerings of 70 degrees; moreover, the plasticization power of the bonded water increases on decrease of the temperature of conditioning of the specimens.Finally, the water present in the matrix considerably reduces the thermal stability of the composite.

Zusammenfassung Es wurde die Wassersorptionskinetik eines Graphitfaserverbundstoffes auf Epoxymatrixbasis mit verschiedenen Polymerisationsgraden untersucht. Es zeigte sich, daß die senkrecht zur Faserrichtung bestimmten Diffusionskonstanten mit anwachsendem Vernetzungsgrad zunehmen. Beim Erhitzen des Materials auf 200 °C wird nur ein geringer Teil des gebundenen Wassers abgegeben. Der Einfluß des Feuchtgehaltes auf einige Eigenschaften des Verbundstoffes wurde ebenfalls untersucht. Die an vollkommen polymerisierten Proben bestimmtenT _g Werte zeigen eine Abnahme von 70 Grad; die Plastifizierungswirkung des gebundenen Wassers ist um so höher, je niedriger die Konditionierungstemperatur der Probe war. Das in der Matrix gegenwärtige Wasser senkt beträchtlich die Wärmebeständigkeit des Verbundstoffes.

Investigation of surface phenomena on solid catalysts by simultaneous thermogravimetry and DTA

Thermogravimetry and simultaneous DTA were used to investigate the phenomena of adsorption, desorption and surface reactions on solid catalysts. The measurements were carried out with NaX and X-type ion-exchanged zeolites and silica-alumina gels (Ketjen) treated with sodium hydroxide in the presence of carbon dioxide. On the basis of the quantitative results it is possible to give an interpretation of the surface phenomena and to establish the existence of various active centres on the surfaces of the catalysts. In the case of the adsorption of carbon dioxide on X-type zeolites, the quantity of carbon dioxide adsorbed is much smaller on ion-exchanged zeolites than on NaX.

Die Messungen wurden and NaX und Zeolithen des Typs X sowie an Silika-Aluminiumoxidgelen Ketjen durchgeführt, welche mit Natriumhydroxid in Gegenwart von Kohlendioxid behandelt worden waren. Aufgrund der quantitativen Ergebnisse ist es möglich eine Deutung der Oberfiächenerscheinungen zu geben und die Existenz verschiedener aktiver Zentren an der Katalysatorenoberfläche nachzuweisen. Im Falle der Adsorption von Kohlendioxid an Zeolithen des Typs X ist die Menge des adsorbierten Kohlendioxids am Ionenaustauscher viel niedriger als am NaX.

Les résultats quantitatifs permettent de donner une interprétation des phénomènes de surface et d'établir l'existence de divers centres actifs à la surface des catalyseurs. Dans le cas de l'adsorption de CO₂ sur les zéolites de type X, la quantité de CO₂ adsorbé est beaucoup plus faible que sur les zéolites de type NaX.

Interaction of oxygen with preadsorbed hydrogen on magnesium oxide studied by temperature-Programmed desorption method

The interaction of oxygen with preadsorbed hydrogen on thermally activated magnesium oxide has been studied by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) method. It was found that oxygen at 450 K reacts with preadsorbed hydrogen and the resulting hydroxylation suppresses the adsorptive capacity of magnesia with respect to oxygen.

The kinetics and intermediates of the permanganate oxidation of trans-crotonic acid have been investigated in the pH range of 0.5–5.0 using the stoppedflow technique. The formation of manganese(III) as a short-lived intermediate has been established. The reaction is first order with respect to both MnO ₄ ^– and crotonic acid (crotonate). The resolved rate constants at 25°C are 730 and 410 M^–1 sec^–1 for the acid and the anion, respectively. The reaction mechanism is discussed.

Temperature-programmed reduction. Metal-support interaction on supported monometallic Ru and Cu Catalysts

Ru and Cu samples supported on SiO₂, Al₂O₃ and MgO were studied by the temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) technique. Experiments were carried out both on unreduced impregnated salts and after oxidation of already reduced samples.The TPR profiles were found to be strongly dependent on the support used, indicating different degrees of interaction between the metal and the support, which can be ranked as MgOAl₂O₃>SiO₂. It is suggested that the interaction occurs through the formation of surface complexes difficult to reduce. The decrease in hydrogen consumption observed on the Ru samples with the number of TPR cycles is attributed to the difficulty in oxidizing large Ru particles.

Zusammenfassung Auf SiO₂, Al₂O₃ und MgO aufgebrachte Ru- und Cu-Proben wurden mittels temperaturprogrammierter Reduktion (TPR) untersucht. Experimente wurden sowohl an unreduzierten Salzimprägnierungen als auch nach Oxydation von bereits reduzierten Proben ausgeführt. Die TPR-Profile sind stark vom benutzten Trägen abhängig, was auf unterschiedliche Grade der Wechselwirkung zwischen Metall und Träger hindeutet; die Reihenfolge ist MgOAl₂O₃>SiO₂. Es wird vermutet, daß das Wesen der Wechselwirkung in der Bildung von schwer reduzierbaren Oberflächenkomplexen zu suchen ist. Die bei Ru-Proben mit der Zahl der TPR-Zyklen beobachtete Verminderung des Wasserstoffverbrauchs wird mit der Schwierigkeit, große Ru-Partikel zu oxydieren, in Zusammenhang gebracht.
