Effect of traces of water vapor on the rate of ammonia decomposition on polycrystalline platinum

The influence of small (lower than 0.02) molar fractions of water on the rate of ammonia decomposition on platinum wires was studied for ammonia pressures varying between 6.7 and 93.3 kPa and temperatures between 800 and 1700 K. The presence of water strongly inhibited the rate of reaction in all experiments.

Kinetic consequences of displacement adsorption in heterogeneous catalysis

Kinetic analysis of the simple reaction scheme of the heterogeneously catalyzed reaction AB has been made for the classical Langmuir adsorption and the Ipateev displacement adsorption. It has been shown that the only kinetic consequence of displacement adsorption is the different physical meaning of the parameters of the rate equation. Its form remains the same for both adsorption modes. This conclusion seems to be general also for other reaction schemes.

Thermal and photochemical stability of polystyrene and its blends with polyvinyl chloride

The influence of some irregularities in polystyrene (PS) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) chains on their thermal stability was investigated. UV irradiation caused an increase in the content of these irregularities in the polymers. It was found that the presence of carbonyl groups and crosslinking of the polymer chains hamper the thermal dehydrochlorination of PVC and the total decomposition of both polymers. On the other hand, weak peroxy linkages (which facilitate degradation processes) and conjugated double bonds decrease the temperature of total decomposition of PS and PVC blends.

Zusammenfassung Es wurde der Einfluß von Unregmlmäßigkeiten in Polystyrol (PS)- und Polyvinylchlorid (PVC)-Ketten auf deren thermische Stabilität untersucht. UV-Bestrahlung verursacht ein Ansteigen des Gehaltes an Unregelmäßigkeiten in den Polymeren. Es wurde festgestellt, daß die Gegenwart von Carbonylgruppen und Querverbindungen der Polymerketten die thermische Dehydrochlorierung von PVC und eine vollständige Zersetzung beider Polymere verhindern. Andererseits senken Peroxidverknüpfungen (die die Degradierungsvorgänge erleichtern) und konjugierte Doppelbindungen die Temperatur für eine vollständige Zersetzung von PS und PVC Gemischen.

V2O5/TiO2 oxidation catalysts, III. Oxidation of CO on pure and sodium-doped systems

The activity of vanadia/titania catalysts in CO oxidation has been tested and found to be of the same order as that observed for unsupported vanadia; the simultaneous presence of vanadium-sodium compounds cancels the activity, probably because of the elimination of labile V=0 species at surface defects.

Parent and mixed ligand complexes in the copper(II)-ethylene glycol-sulphate system

Eleven copper(II)-ethylene glycol-sulphate complexes of different compositions were prepared, one of them-CuGl₂(H₂O)₂SO₄-in single-crystal form. A thermoanalytical study of these complexes revealed three types of thermal decomposition pattern. The X-ray structure of the single-crystal demonstrated the presence of ethylene glycol bridges resulting in endless chains in the crystal.

On the catalytic system MgO?Na

Acid-base and radical properties of two sets of MgO–Na catalysts have been studied. The catalysts were prepared (I) by impregnation of MgO with NaOH in aqueous solution, and (II) by evaporation of metallic sodium onto a MgO surface. The catalyst prepared by the second method was much more basic than pure MgO (H_o=35) and showed a high activity in olefin isomerization.

A thermogravimetric study of the solid-state reaction between alumina and strontium carbonate

The kinetics of the solid-state reaction between alumina and strontium carbonate were studied by thermogravimetry. The effects of the structure ( or) and/or doping (with Li⁺ or Cd²⁺) of the alumina on the kinetics of the reaction were examined. The results obtained were correlated with the phase composition and structural changes, followed by a number of physicochemical analyses (DTA, XRA and IRA) throughout the course of the reaction.

Decomposition of dimethyl sulfide in the presence of Al2O3, and catalyst deactivation

The catalytic decomposition of dimethyl sulfide has been studied over the temperature range of 400–500 °C. The main reaction products are methylmercaptane, H₂S and methane. Catalyst deactivation is due to its coking during the reaction. The possibility of oxidative catalyst regeneration at 550 °C has been shown.

Behavior of CSTR upon fast external effects: Possibility of increasing average conversion

The objective of the work was to study the influence of external factors (changes in composition, load and temperature) on the regimes of heterogeneous catalytic reactors. As shown, a rather fast change in external parameters causes an internal reorganization of the CSTR thus leading to an increase in average conversion.

Thermal analysis of spurrite from a rotary cement kiln

A number of samples from the pre-burning zone of a wet-process cement rotary kiln were examined by combined DTA/TG and XRD for estimation of spurrite (2Ca₂SiO₄·CaCO₃). It was found that decarbonation temperatures of spurrite range from 1130 to 1190 K and they are 45 to 75 K higher than that of calcite occurring in the same sample. In the TG curves calcite and spurrite can be easily distinguished and accordingly both can be estimated from the same TG scan. Combined DTA/TG, supplemented by XRD, is a very effective method for qualitative and quantitative estimation of spurrite in cement rotary kiln materials.

Zusammenfassung Unter kombinierter Anwendung von DTA/TG und Röntgendiffraktionsverfahren wurde eine Anzahl Proben aus einem Vorkalzinator eines Drehrohrofens zur Zementherstellung nach dem Naßverfahren auf Spurrit (2Ca₂SiO₄·CaCO₃) untersucht. Es wurde festgestellt, daß die Temperatur für das Austreiben von CO₂ bei Spurrit zwischen 1130 und 1190 K und somit um 45–75 °C höher als bei in derselben Probe vorliegenden Kalzit liegt. Aufgrund der TG-Kurven können Kalzit und Spurrit leicht voneinander unterschieden und demzufolge mit einem einzigen TG-Scan bestimmt werden. Kombinierte DTA/TG, ergänzt durch Röntgendiffraktionsverfahren ist eine sehr leistungsstarke Methode zur qualitativen und quantitativen Bestimmung von Spurrit in Stoffen aus Zementdrehrohröfen.

Study of cyclohexane conversion on A Pt/Al2O3 catalyst under reforming conditions by a gradientless method

A common type of rate equations for hydrocarbon conversions under reforming conditions has been shown, resulting from the features of the hydrocarbons and hydrogen adsorption on the Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst. This has been confirmed by variations in the rate of cyclohexane conversion observed upon the introduction of methane into the reaction mixture. Methane does not react but is strongly adsorbed on the catalyst surface.
