Activation of magnesia by hydrogen spillover

Magnesia aerogel activated by hydrogen spillover at 430 °C or at 200 °C becomes a catalyst for the hydrogenation of ethylene. This catalytic activity, observed already at 50 °C, is further enhanced by a treatment in oxygen at 430 °C.

Studies of Cu?Ni supported catalysts for enantioselective hydrogenation

The effect of support content and composition of supported metal phase on the crystallite size, phase composition and catalytic properties of supported Ni and Cu–Ni catalysts has been investigated. It has been established that with increasing metal content, crystallite sizes and enantioselectivity increase. Copper added to Ni catalysts decreases metal phase dispersity and enantioselectivity.

Kinetic analysis of thermogravimetric data. XI thermal decomposition of some metal dithionates

A thermal analytical study of Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, NH₄, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Zn dithionates is reported. The decomposition of the dithionate ion is endothermic in the case of the Na, K, Rb, Cs and NH₄ salts, but exothermic with Li, Mg, Sr, Ba and Zn. Kinetic parameters have been derived from the TG curves by means of the Coats-Redfern method. The validity of a linear kinetic compensation law is reported for the loss of crystal water and separately for the decomposition of the dithionate ion.

Zusammenfassung Es wird über eine thermoanalytische Untersuchung der Dithionate von Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, NH₄, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba und Zn berichtet. Die Zersetzung des DithionatIons ist im Falle von Na, K, Rb, Cs und NH₄-Salzen endotherm, im Falle von Li, Mg, Sr, Ba und Zn hingegen exotherm.

Effect of carbon support on the hydrogen sorption of platinum

The hydrogen sorption of carbon-supported platinum catalysts, studied by the potentiodynamic method, differs significantly from that of unsupported platinum. The difference depends on the preparation method and on the nature of the support. Possible explanations are suggested as (i) some kind of interaction between metal and support atoms during impregnation, (ii) high dispersity (amorphous structure) and (iii) hydrogen spillover onto the carbon support.

Analysis of thermal desorption spectra of oxygen desorbed from rhodium

Thermal desorption spectra of oxygen desorbed from rhodium have been analyzed in terms of models accounting for the effect of lateral interactions between adsorbed particles and of their diffusion into the bulk of metal on the desorption kinetics of O₂. Complex configuration of these spectra is ascribed to the processes of formation/decomposition of surface Rh oxides and the diffusion of particles into the near-surface layers of metal and back to the surface.

Singlet triplet intersystem crossing quantum yields were determined for n-butyraldehyde, using the photosensitized cis-trans isomerization of piperylene to monitor the process. At room temperature and 313 nm, 0.58±0.05 and 0.72±0.05 were obtained for the triplet yield in the vapor phase and in isooctane, respectively.

Effect of magnetic order on the conductivity in Co-Zn ferrites

A series of samples in the system Co_1–xZn_xFe₂O₄ (x=0.3, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1) were prepared by the usual ceramic technique. The D. C. electrical resistivity and thermoelectric power were measured in the temperature range from room temperature up to about 600 K. Transition from the ferrimagnetic region to the paramagnetic region is accompanied by an increase in the activation energy by an amountE, which varies in the range 0.052–0.090 eV. The large values ofE obtained may be due to the fairly strong B-B exchange interaction in Co-Zn ferrites.

Zusammenfassung Mittels üblicher Keramiktechniken wurden Proben des Systemes Co₁–xZn_xFe₂O₄ unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung (x=0,3, 0,4, 0,6, 0,8, 1,0) dargestellt. Im Temperaturbereich Raumtemperatur-600 K wurde der elektrische Widerstand gegenüber Gleichstrom sowie die Thermospannung dieser Proben ermittelt. Der Übergang von der ferrimagnetischen zur paramagnetischen Region wird von einem Anwachsen der Aktivierungsenergie um den BetragE=0,052–0,090 eV begleitet. Den so erhaltenen grossen E-Werten liegen wahrscheinlich die ziemlich starken B-B Austausch Wechselwirkungen in Co-Zn Ferriten zu Grunde.

Study of thermal stabilities of some heat transfer oils

This paper discusses the thermal behaviour and stabilities of some heat transfer fluids. These included four solvent-refined mineral oils, two aromatic extracts and two synthetic oils. Results of this thermoanalytical investigation, which simulated different atmospheric conditions, showed the synthetic oils to have higher thermal stabilities than those of the other oils.The refined mineral oils exhibited higher thermal stabilities than those of the aromatic extracts when studied under a static air atmosphere. This behaviour was reversed when the experiment was performed under a confined atmosphere of air.These observations are attributed mainly to the environmental changes and also to the compositions of these products.

Zusammenfassung Das thermische Verhalten und die Stabilität einiger Wärmeübertragungsflüssigkeiten werden diskutiert. Die Untersuchung erstreckt sich auf vier mit Lösungsmittel raffinierte Mineralöle, zwei Aromatenextrakte und zwei synthetische Öle. Aus den Ergebnissen thermoanalytischer Untersuchungen, bei denen verschiedene atmosphärische Bedingungen simuliert wurden, folgt, daß die synthetischen Öle ein höhere thermische Stabilität als die anderen Öle aufweisen. In statischer Luftatmosphäre ist die thermische Stabilität der raffinierten Mineralöle höher als die der Aromatenextrakte. In einer limitierten Luftatmosphäre kehrt sich dagegen dieses Verhalten um. Diese Beobachtungen werden hauptsächlich Veränderungen in der Umgebung und der Zusammensetzung dieser Produkte zugeschrieben.

These compounds were examined by the methods of infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffractometry, UV-VIS reflectance spectroscopy, and also by the measurement of magnetic moments. The thermal stability, the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition and the mutual transformations were investigated with a derivatograph. The reactions proceeding according to the following schemes were observed if the system was heated to appropriate temperature: (I)(II)(III)(V)(IV) and (VI)(VII)(III)(V)(IV) Process (VII)(III) represents isomerization. The reversibility of the process (V)(IV) is due to the high hygroscopicity of the anhydrous complex. The changes in structure in the course of the individual processes are discussed.

Application of emissionless infrared diffuse reflectance spectrometry for following reactions of adsorbed alcohols on an alumina catalyst

IR spectra of adsorbed alcohols on alumina were measured under the reaction conditions at elevated temperatures. The transient response of IR absorption intensity indicates that alkoxides are reactive adsorbed species but carboxylates are not. The rate constants of surface reactions were calculated from the transient response.

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.
