Catalytic activity of honeycomb catalysts, I. The benzene-cyclohexane (de)hydrogenation reaction

Monolithic supported platinum catalysts were investigated with respect to their hydrogenation and dehydrogenation activity towards benzene and cyclohexane, respectively, between 250° and 350°C. Conversion of benzene to cyclohexane is optimal for the volume ratio H₂/Bz=5 at lower temperatures. In the cyclohexane dehydrogenation reaction, high temperatures, associated with lower N₂/Cy ratios, are beneficial. No byproducts were observed in the two reactions.

On the interpretation of differences in mechanisms, kinetics and dynamics of oxidation reactions on metal and oxide catalysts

Langmuir-Hinshelwood type mechanisms with competitive adsorption are suggested to be more typical for metal catalysts, since, unlike on oxide systems, oxidizable substance and molecular oxygen can be adsorbed on the same (reduced) active sites. Therefore, multiple steady states and critical phenomena are more characteristic for catalysis on metals.

Platinum-palladium catalysts for hydrogen fuel cell electrodes

Five series of Pt–Pd/C catalysts were prepared with different total metal loading and different atomic composition in Pt and Pd. The activity in electrooxidation of hydrogen were measured for all these catalysts. Electrooxidation of hydrogen is a structure insensitive reaction on platinum and a structure sensitive reaction on palladium. For bimetallic catalysts, curves of activity as a function of the composition of the catalyst can exhibit a maximum. Yet, metal loading can alter the atomic composition at which activities are maxima.

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.

Zusammenfassung Thermogravimetrie und simultane DTA wurden zur Untersuchung der Adsorptions-, Desorptions-Erscheinungen und Oberflächenreaktionen an festen Katalysatoren eingesetzt. 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 mesures ont été effectuées avec des zéolites échangeuses d'ions de type NaX et X ainsi qu'avec des gels Ketjen silice-alumine traités par NaOH en présence de CO₂. 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.

Influence of mechanical activation on decomposition of a chalcopyrite-pyrite mixture in an oxidizing atmosphere

The influence of the addition of pyrite and mechanical activation on an oxidative decomposition of chalcopyrite was studied. The course of the thermoanalytical curves and X-ray identification of the products showed that addition of pyrite affects mainly the endothermic processes taking place in region of low temperatures but does not significantly influence the temperature of CuSO₄ formation and its content in the products of decomposition. Changes in fine and superfine structure of chalcopyrite brought about by mechanical activation at grinding cause the complex of exothermic oxidative reactions to proceed at temperatures as much as 180 deg lower than for a non activated sample. The endothermic effect of these oxidation reactions become more marked and the proportion of CuSO₄ in the products of the oxidative decomposition increases significantly.

Zusammenfassung Am oxidativen Zerfall von Chalkopyrit wurde der Einfluss der Zugabe von Pyrit sowie der mechanischen Aktivierung untersucht. Der Verlauf der thermoanalytischen Kurven und Röntgendiffraktionsanalyse der Produkte zeigten, dass die Zugabe von Pyrit hauptsächlich die sich bei niedrigeren Temperaturen abspielenden endothermen Prozesse beeinflusst, nicht aber die Bildungstemperatur von CuSO₄ sowie dessen Gehalt in den Zersetzungsprodukten. Durch mechanisches Aktivieren mittels Feinmahlen hervorgerufene Veränderungen in der Fein- und Superfeinstruktur lassen die Gesamtheit der exothermen oxidativen Reaktionen bei Temperaturen ablaufen, die etwa 180 Grad unterhalb derer für unaktivierte Proben liegen. Die endotherme Färbung dieser Oxidation wird eindeutiger und der Anteil von CuSO₄ in den Produkten des oxidativen Zerfalles nimmt eindeutig zu.

The nature and rate of coke deposited on mono-and bimetallic reforming catalysts have been studied for normal heptane reforming. For bimetallic catalysts it has been shown that coke deposition is less extensive than on monometallic catalyst, depending on the degree of polymerization and the type of bimetallic catalyst.

A mordenite-containing rock sample from the Tokaj Mountains (Hungary) and its various forms modified by chemical treatment have been tested for catalytic properties during isomerization of n-hexane. Addition of Pt to the catalyst leads to a sharp decrease in the rate of cracking and in the rate of deactivation and this results in a catalyst of high selectivity for hexane isomers.
