Hydrotalcite-derived Co-containing mixed metal oxide catalysts for methanol incineration

The Co–Mg–Al mixed metal oxides were prepared by calcination of co-precipitated hydrotalcite-like precursors at various temperatures (600–800 °C), characterised with respect to chemical (AAS) and phase (XRD) composition, textural parameters (BET), form and aggregation of cobalt species (UV–vis-DRS) and their redox properties (H₂-TPR, cyclic voltammetry). Moreover, the process of thermal decomposition of hydrotalcite-like materials to mixed metal oxide systems was studied by thermogravimetric method combined with the analysis of gaseous decomposition products by mass spectrometry. Calcined hydrotalcite-like materials were tested as catalysts for methanol incineration. Catalytic performance of the oxides depended on cobalt content, Mg/Al ratio and calcination temperature. The catalysts with lower cobalt content, higher Mg/Al ratio and calcined at lower temperatures (600 or 700 °C) were less effective in the process of methanol incineration. In a series of the studied catalysts, the best results, with respect to high catalytic activity and selectivity to CO₂, were obtained for the mixed oxide with Co:Mg:Al molar ratio of 10:57:33 calcined at 800 °C. High activity of this catalyst was likely connected with the presence of a Co–Mg–Al spinel-type phases, containing easy reducible Co³⁺ cations, formed during high-temperature treatment of the hydrotalcite-like precursor.     

Study of the catalysts for fuel combustion reactions: XX. Thermal stability and other properties of the CeO2-MgO-Al2O3 system

The effect of simultaneous addition of magnesium and cerium cations on the structure formation and properties of aluminum oxide obtained from hydroxides with different phase compositions by thermal treatment at 773–1573 K is studied. At temperatures lower than 1273 K, the effect of specific surface area stabilization is observed for the samples. It is found that spherical aluminum oxide modified with Mg and Ce cations exhibits high mechanical strength upon calcination atT > 1373 K. Modified samples calcined at 1573 K are catalytically active in the CH₄ oxidation reaction     

Adsorption of Cr(VI) and Se(IV) from their aqueous solutions onto Zr4+-substituted ZnAl/MgAl-layered double hydroxides: effect of Zr4+ substitution in the layer

Hydrotalcite-like compounds (layered double hydroxides, LDHs) containing varying amounts of Al(3+), Zr(4+), and Zn(2+) or Mg(2+) in the metal hydroxide layer have been synthesized and characterized by various physicochemical methods. The adsorption behavior of uncalcined (as-synthesized) and calcined LDHs have been investigated for Cr(2)O(7)(2-) and SeO(3)(2-). The mixed oxides, obtained on calcination at 450 degrees C, exhibit high adsorption capacities for Cr(2)O(7)(2-) (1.6-2.7 meq/g) and SeO(3)(2-) (1.1-1.5 meq/g), where adsorption occurs through rehydration. Substitution of Zr(4+) in the LDHs, for either M(2+) or Al(3+) ions, increases the adsorption capacity up to 20%, thus providing an alternative way to enhance the adsorption capacity of this type of material. The high adsorption capacity of these materials could be successfully used for removal of undesirable anions from water and also for synthesis of intercalated materials with tailored acidobasicity.     

Aldol condensation of furfural and acetone on layered double hydroxides

The Aldol condensation of furfural (Fur) with acetone (Ac) to 4-(2-Furyl)-3-buten-2-one (FAc) is one of the most important processes in the aqueous-reforming of oxygen-containing biomass derivatives and has been carried out in the presence of solid-base catalysts, calcined-rehydrated Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH). The Mg-Al Layered Double Hydroxides has been prepared by the coprecipitation, calcination and regeneration from mixed oxides by rehydration. The catalyst prepared with different Mg/Al molar ratios showed different catalytic performance and the best catalyst was with the Mg/Al molar ratio of 2.5. Phenol adsorption showed that the best catalyst had the largest numbers of accessible basic sites. The appropriate rehydration temperature and time for mixed oxides obtained by calcination were also investigated. The Mg-Al LDH catalysts can be regenerated by calcination at 773 K and rehydration in decarbonate water, but the regeneration is complex and incomplete. In addition, the catalyst calcined at high temperature also had activity, which was attributed to the formation of the Mg-Al spinels.

煅烧工艺对熔盐法合成钛钾镁片晶的影响

钛酸镁钾具有优异的力学性能,被广泛用作各类高级轿车刹车片的摩擦材料。而材料的组成及形貌对刹车效果的影响很大,传统的合成工艺无法对其进行有效地控制。本文通过对煅烧工艺的优化,从而得到结晶度和形貌俱佳的钛酸镁钾片晶。以Mg(OH)_2、K_2CO_3和TiO_2为原料,加入KCl为熔盐,采用熔盐法合成钛酸钾镁片晶(KMTO)。利用X射线衍射仪(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)技术手段研究了煅烧工艺(升温速率、煅烧温度、保温时间)对钛酸钾镁片晶组成及形貌的影响,并对其反应机理进行了初步的探讨。结果表明,不同的煅烧工艺对熔盐法合成钛酸镁钾片晶的组成及形貌产生了显著的影响,以200℃/h升温至800℃后,再以100℃/h升温至1000℃,保温2 h,通过水洗干燥,即可得到结晶度较高、形貌比较均匀的K_(0.8)Mg_(0.4)Ti_(1.6)O_4片晶。     

Effect of calcination temperature on the structure of a Pt/TiO2 (B) nanofiber and its photocatalytic activity in generating H2

Hydrogen trititanate (H 2Ti 3O 7) nanofibers were prepared by a hydrothermal method in 10 M NaOH at 403 K, followed by acidic rinsing and drying at 383 K. Calcining H 2Ti 3O 7 nanofibers at 573 K led to the formation of TiO 2 (B) nanofibers. Calcination at 673 K improved the crystallinity of the TiO 2 (B) nanofibers and did not cause any change in the morphology and dimensions of the nanofibers. TiO 2 (B) and H 2Ti 3O 7 nanofibers are 10-20 nm in diameter and several micrometers long, but FE-SEM reveals that several of these nanofibers tend to bind tightly to each other, forming a fiber bundle. Calcination at 773 K transformed TiO 2 (B) nanofibers into a TiO 2 (B)/anatase bicrystalline mixture with their fibrous morphology remaining intact. Upon increasing the calcination temperature to 873 K, most of the TiO 2 (B) nanofibers were converted into anatase nanofibers and small anatase particles with smoother surfaces. In the photocatalytic dehydrogenation of neat ethanol, 1% Pt/TiO 2 (B) nanofiber calcined at 673 K was the most active catalyst and generated about the same amount of H 2 as did 1% Pt/P-25. TPR indicated that the calcination of 1% Pt/TiO 2 (B) nanofiber at 573 K produced a poor Pt dispersion and poor activity. Calcination at a temperature higher than 773 K (in ambient air) resulted in an SMSI effect similar to that observed over TiO 2 in the reductive atmosphere. As suggested by XPS, such an SMSI effect decreased the surface concentration of Pt metal and created Pt (delta) sites, preventing Pt particles from functioning as a Schottky barrier and leading to a lower activity. Because of the synergetic effect between TiO 2 (B) and anatase phases, the bicrystalline mixture, produced by calcining at 773 K, was able to counter negative effects such as the reduction in surface area and the SMSI effect and maintained its photocatalytic activity.     

Novel non-hydrolytic synthesis of a V2O5-TiO2 xerogel for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by ammonia

A vanadia-titania mesoporous xerogel (10.5 wt% V(2)O(5)) was prepared from chloride precursors using a one-step non-hydrolytic sol-gel route and subsequent drying at ambient pressure; after calcination at 773 K for 5 h no crystalline V(2)O(5) was detected and the resulting mixed oxide exhibited remarkable activity in the selective reduction of NO with NH(3).

氧化铬柱层状三氧化钼的合成

Structure and base properties of calcined hydrotalcites

Five hydrotalcites with Mg/Al molar ratio range of 3-15 were prepared. The structure and basicity of Mg-Al mixed oxides (Mg(Al)O) transformed from hydrotalcites were investigated by TPD, XPS, XRD, FT-IR and NMR techniques. The results of elemental analysis and XPS indicate that Al is enriched in the surface regions of Mg(Al)0, and its amount increases with the Mg/Al molar ratio and the calcination temperature. 27Al-MAS-NMR results show that Al exists in two chemical environments: tetrahedral aluminium (Al(t)) and octahedral aluminium (Al(o)) in Mg(Al)O. The amount of Al(t) increases with the Mg/Al molar ratio and the calcination temperature. It is assumed that Al(t) may be mainly from the surface Al. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of CO2 shows that the number of basic sites of Mg(Al)O samples increases with the Mg/Al molar ratio, and the maximum number of basic sites is obtained for hydrotalcite calcined at 773 K. Infrared spectra of adsorbed CO2 and B(OCH3)3 reveal that there are two kinds of     

Thermal evolution of V(III)-containing layered double hydroxides

A study is reported on the thermal evolution of Mg, V layered double hydroxides with interlayer carbonate anions and different Mg/V molar ratios (from 1 to 4). Decomposition in O₂ occurs at lower temperature than that in N₂; the stability of the layered structure decreases as the V content increases. Oxidation of layer V³⁺ cations occurs in the same temperature range as dehydroxylation and decarbonation. The nature of the crystalline phases formed upon calcination at high temperatures strongly depends on the Mg/V molar ratio in the initial solid.     

预处理条件对用于CO_2加氢的超细CuO－ZnO－SiO_2催化剂性能的影响

Structural characterization and oxidative dehydrogenation activity of V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 catalysts

The thermal stability of a nanosized Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2 solid solution on a silica surface and the dispersion behavior of V2O5 over Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 have been investigated using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, HREM, and BET surface area techniques. Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene was performed as a test reaction to assess the usefulness of the VOx/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 catalyst. Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 (1:1:2 mol ratio based on oxides) was synthesized through a soft-chemical route from ultrahigh dilute solutions by adopting a deposition coprecipitation technique. A theoretical monolayer equivalent to 10 wt % V2O5 was impregnated over the calcined Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 sample (773 K) by an aqueous wet impregnation technique. The prepared V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 sample was subjected to thermal treatments from 773 to 1073 K. The XRD measurements indicate the presence of cubic Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 in the case of Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2, while cubic Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 and tetragonal Ce0.16Zr0.84O2 in the case of V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 when calcined at various temperatures. Dispersed vanadium oxide induces more incorporation of zirconium into the ceria lattice, thereby decreasing its lattice size and also accelerating the crystallization of Ce-Zr-O solid solutions at higher calcination temperatures. Further, it interacts selectively with the ceria portion of the composite oxide to form CeVO4. The RS measurements provide good evidence about the dispersed form of vanadium oxide and the CeVO4 compound. The HREM studies show the presence of small Ce-Zr-oxide particles of approximately 5 nm size over the surface of amorphous silica and corroborate with the results obtained from other techniques. The catalytic activity studies reveal the ability of vanadium oxide supported on Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 to efficiently catalyze the ODH of ethylbenzene at normal atmospheric pressure. The remarkable ability of Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2 to prevent the deactivation of supported vanadium oxide leading to stable activity in the time-on-stream experiments and high selectivity to styrene are other important observations.     

Intercalation of [Cr(C2O4)3]3 - complex in mg,al layered double hydroxides

A Mg,Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) with [Cr(C(2)O(4))(3)](3)(-) anions in the interlayer has been synthesized following two different routes: reconstruction from a mildly calcined Mg,Al-carbonate LDH, and anion exchange from a Mg,Al-nitrate LDH. The solids prepared have been characterized by elemental chemical analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, FT-IR and UV-vis/DR (diffuse reflectance) spectroscopies, thermal methods, nitrogen adsorption at -196 degrees C, and FT-IR monitoring of pyridine adsorption. The results obtained indicate that the most appropriate method is anion exchange, leading to a well crystallized LDH with an interlayer spacing of 10 A. Due to the high pH value (>8) of the solution in the reconstruction method, however, a polyphasic system is obtained, where, in addition to a phase with the LDH structure, amorphous magnesium oxalate and chromium oxohydroxides are also formed due to hydrolysis of the complex. The interlayer complex is stable up to 200 degrees C, but the layered structure is stable up to 330 degrees C, probably because of the presence of interlayer oxalate anions formed during decomposition of the complex. Calcination leads to oxidation of Cr(3+) ions to the six-valent state, which reverts to Cr(3+) when the calcination temperature is further increased.

An influence of thermal treatment conditions of hydrotalcite-like materials on their catalytic activity in the process of N<Subscript>2</Subscript>O decomposition

Hydrotalcite-like materials containing apart from magnesium and aluminum also copper, cobalt, nickel, and iron were prepared by a co-precipitation method. Thermal transformations of hydrotalcite-like materials were studied by thermal analysis methods as well as XRD, UV–vis–DRS, and XPS measurements of the samples calcined at various temperatures (600, 700, and 800 °C). Calcined hydrotalcites, especially those containing cobalt and copper, were found to be active and selective catalysts of N₂O decomposition. It was shown that an increase in the calcination temperature significantly activated the Co-containing catalysts. Promotion of the samples with potassium resulted in activation of the hydrotalcite-based catalysts.     

Aerosol-assisted fabrication of mesoporous titania spheres with crystallized anatase structures and investigation of their photocatalitic properties

We demonstrate practical aerosol-assisted approach to synthesize spherical mesoporous titania particles with high surface areas. Scanning electron microscopy observation of the spray-dried products clearly shows spherical morphology. To remove surfactants and enhance crystallinity, the spray-dried products are calcined under various temperatures. The crystalline structures inside the particles are carefully detected by wide-angle XRD measurements. With increase of the calcination temperatures, anatase crystal growth proceeds and transformation from anatase to rutile is occurred. The effect of various calcination temperatures on the mesostructures is also studied by using N₂ adsorption desorption isotherms. The mesoporous titania particles calcined at 350, 400, and 500 °C exhibit type IV isotherms with a capillary condensation step and shows a hysteresis loop, which is a characteristic of mesoporous materials. The reduction in the surface areas and the pore volumes is confirmed by increasing the calcination temperatures, while the average pore diameters are increased gradually. This is attributed to the distortion of the mesostructures due to the grain growth of the anatase phase and the transformation to the rutile phase during the calcination process. As a preliminary experimental photocatalytic activity, oxidative decomposition of acetaldehyde under UV irradiation is examined. The mesoporous titania calcined at 400 °C shows the highest photocatalytic activity, due to both high surface area and well-developed anatase crystalline phase.
