Thermal decomposition as a preparative route to anhydrous rare earth nitrates

Thermal decomposition of rare earth pentanitrato complexes has been studied by TG and DTA. M₂Ln(NO₃)₅·nH₂O (M=NH₄, Ln=La, Nd, Pr) decomposes in air through anhydrous (NH₄)₂Ln(NO₃)₅ to Ln(NO₃)₃, LnONO₃ and finally to Ln₂O₃ above 600°C. When M=K and Ln=La, the intermediate K₂La(NO₃)₅ is remarkably stable and KLaO₂is formed at 800°C. Except for Nd, the nonanitrato complex M₃Ln₂(NO₃)₉ was detected during the degradation process in both air and nitrogen but its stability range is too narrow to allow its preparative isolation as single phase. For comparison, the TG and DSC curves were recorded for La(NO₃)₃·6H₂O where La(NO₃)₃ and especially LaONO₃ appear as stable intermediates.

Zusammenfassung Mittels TG und DTA wurde die thermische Zersetzung der Pentanitratokomplexe von Seltenerden untersucht. Oberhalb 600°C zersetzt sich M₂Ln(NO₃)₅·nH₂O (M=NH₄, Ln=La, Nd, Pr) in Luft über die Zwischenstufen wasserfreies (NH₄)₂ Ln(NO₃)₅, Ln(NO₃)₃ und LnONO₃ zu Ln₂O₃. Mit M=K und Ln=La ist das Zwischenprodukt K₂ La(NO₃)₅ äußerst stabil und bei 800°C bildet sich KLaO₂. Mit Ausnahme von Nd konnten während der Abbauprozesse sowohl in Luft als auch in Stick-Stoff die Nonanitratokomplexe M₃Ln₂(NO₃)₉ beobachtet werden, deren Stabilitätsbereich jedoch für eine präparative Isolierung in Form einer einzigen Phase zu klein ist. Zum Vergleich wurden die TG- und DSC-Kurven von La(NO₃)₃·6H₂O aufgenommen, wobei sich La(NO₃)₃ und besonders LaONO₃ als stabile Zwischenprodukte erwiesen.

Synthesis and thermal studies of metal salts of 2,4, N-trinitroanilinoacetic acid

Copper(II), silver(I) and lead(II) salts of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-N-nitroglycine were prepared and characterised. The thermal behaviour of the salts in air and nitrogen atmospheres was studied by means of DTA and TG techniques. The environment appeared to have no effect on the mode of decomposition. While metal oxides are formed as the end-products of decomposition of the copper and lead salts, metallic silver plus carbon was found to be final product from the silver salt. The thermal stabilities of these salts follow the sequence silver salt>lead salt>copper salt.

Mittels DTA- und TG-Techniken in Luft- und Stickstoffatmosphäre wurde das thermische Verhalten der Salze untersucht. Die Umgebung scheint auf die Art der Zersetzung keinen Einfluß zu besitzen. Zersetzungsendprodukte der Kupfer ui I Bleisalze sind Metalloxide, Zersetzungsendprodukte des Silbersalzes sind elementares Silber und Kohlenstoff. Die Wärmestabilität dieser Salze sinkt in der Reihenfolge Silbersalt — Bleisalz — Kupfersalz.

Surface acidity of aluminas prepared by precipitation from sodium aluminate solutions and nitric acid with and without surfactant were determined by IR spectroscopy. It was found that the amounts of aprotic acidic sites increase with increasing pH of precipitation and with increasing concentration of surfactant used in the course of precipitation and washing of the precipitate.

Induction period of the conversion of methanol to hydrocarbons on a nickel loaded faujasite: Evidence for a suppression of the autocatalytic step

The conversion of methanol to hydrocarbons on nickel loaded faujasites can be retarded for many hours time-on-stream. The induction period is interpreted to be due to a suppression of the autocatalytic step of the reaction. An autocatalytic mechanism is proposed based on the -scission of branched carbenium ion intermediates.

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.

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.

Modification of preparation technique for highly dispersed Ni/γ?Al2O3 catalysts

Highly dispersed Ni/–Al₂O₃ catalysts have been prepared by the method of double impregnation. The application of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (H₄Y) as a chelating agent for activation of the -Al₂O₃ support enables us to prepare highly dispersed Ni/Al₂O₃ catalysts. The use of this chelating agent according to the described modification of the impregnation technique results in the highest dispersity of the metal component in the catalysts obtained.

Utilization of the affine transformation of thermoanalytical curves for the determination of kinetic parameters

A method is suggested for the affine transformation of thermoanalytical curves, by means of which their comparison with one another becomes feasible. It is demonstrated that the results obtained by the traditional methods of non-isothermal kinetics depend on the heating rate, whereas the results attained by affine transformation are independent of the heating rate. They are consistent with the results obtained by Merzhanov's dmethod, which is also a non-aprioristic method.

Zusammenfassung Eine Methode zur Affintransformierung thermoanalytischer Kurven wird vorgeschlagen, wodurch ihr Vergleich miteinandere rmöglicht wird. Es wird gezeigt, daß die durch traditionelle Methoden der nicht-isothermen Kinetik erhaltenen Ergebnisse von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit abhängig sind, während die durch Affintransformierung erhaltenen von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit unabhängig sind. Sie sind in Übereinstimmung mit den nach der Methode von Merzhanov erhaltenen Ergebnissen, die ebenfalls eine nicht-aprioristische Methode ist.

On montre que les résultats obtenus par les méthodes traditionnelles de cinétique non-isotherme dépendent de la vitesse du chauffage, tandis que les résultats obtenus par la transformation affine n'en dépendent pas. Ils sont en accord avec les résultats de la méthode de Merzhanov.

TEM and XPS studies of Ni/WS2 catalysts for thiophene hydrogenolysis

Differences in the structure of WS₂ samples with S_BET=7.6 and 75 m²/g are manifested in decreasing lengths of basal faces of some small crystallites in the more dispersed WS₂. This effect increases the relative fraction of lateral faces on the catalyst surface. Ni ions in the Ni/WS₂ catalysts are in an electrondeficient state compared to NiS.
