Influence of the crystallite size of platinum of the course of hydrogenolysis of ethane and propane over Pt/Al2O3 catalysts

The effect of the degree of platinum crystallite size on the reaction rate, selectivity and activation energy of ethane and propane hydrogenolysis has been studied in the range of platinum crystallite size of 1.7–4.0 nm. In the same range of Pt crystallite size, the activation energy of both processes shows a clear minimum. The decrease in Pt crystallite size bellow 3.0 nm brings about rapid changes in the selectivity of propane hydrogenolysis.

Computation in kinetics, IV. Regression estimation of Arrhenius equation parameters from non-isothermal kinetic data

Computer method for evaluation of Arrhenius equation parameters from non-isothermal kinetic data is offered in KILET program. Changes of temperature can be linear, hyperbolic or of any smooth function which could be expressed by a polynomial of up to 4th degree. The method is demonstrated on examples of linear and hyperbolic changes for simulated and experimental data. The advantage of non-isothermal experiment over isothermal one for evaluation of kinetic solution data is stressed.

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.

ESR study of the interaction of oxygen and propene with solid CoO?MgO solutions under pulse conditions

An ESR study has shown that under the action of oxygen pulses, radical ions O ₂ ^– with g_I=2.0085 and g_II=2.087 are generated at room temperature on the surface of 1% CoO–MgO. Heating of the sample to 150 °C in the spectrometer results in complete disappearance of the O ₂ ^– signal from the ESR spectra. The variation of the O ₂ ^– signal intensity with time due to the interaction between propene and oxygen adsorbed on the sample surface, has been measured.

Determination of the strength of Lewis acid centers via IR spectroscopic measurement of adsorbed pyridine

According to high-temperature IR spectroscopic studies, the isosteric heats of pyridine adsorption on the Lewis centers of Al₂ O₃, ZrO₂ and zeolite HNaY have been estimated. The dependence between the frequency _8a (1580–1630 cm^–1) and the adsorption heat is shown to take place only for centers formed by cations of the same metal.

Calorimetric studies of high molecular polyethylene oxide films isothermally uniaxially stretched at room temperature

The melting behaviour of oriented polyethylene oxide (PEO) films when the film samples were heated in the free state and in the isometric state were investigated by use of DSC. It was shown that in the first case the endotherms of melting have multiple peaks, while in the other case they have one peak. Non-linear dependences of the melting temperature and enthalpy of oriented films on the pressing temperature of the initial PEO isotropic film samples were determined.

Zusammenfassung Das Schmelzverhalten orientierter PEO-Filme beim Erhitzen der filmproben im freien und isometrischen Zustand wurde mittels DSC untersucht. Es wurde festgestellt, daß im ersten Falle der Schmelzvorgang durch mehrere endotherme Peaks gekennzeichnet ist, während im anderen Falle nur ein endothermer Peak auftritt. Nicht-lineare Abhängigkeiten der Schmelztemperatur und — enthalpie orientierter Filme von der Temperatur, bei der die Bestimmung der ursprünglich isotropen PEO-Filme erfolgte, wurden untersucht.

A stochastic analysis of catalyst deactivation in presence of external transfer limitations

The paper analyzes the simplest case of concentration independent deactivation of a catalyst surface in the presence of external transport limitations and accounts for the variations around the mean value of the activity of the catalysts leading to a stochastic formulation. The results reveal interesting features which would not be evident from the conventional deterministic analysis.

Metal dispersity and activity for methylcyclohexane dehydrogenation on Pt/NaY zeolite

By changing the conditions of calcination prior to reduction, three samples with different metal dispersity of Pt/NaY zeolite have been obtained. Their behavior in methylcyclohexane dehydrogenation shows an insensitive character if a second order mechanism with respect to the active site concentration is assumed.

Experiences with the use of DSC in the determination of vapor pressure of organic compounds

This paper describes the arrangement of measuring apparatus for vapor pressure determination by means of DSC according to the dynamic method (measurement of boiling temperatures at various pressures). Measuring conditions, main test parameters, typical disturbances and measuring errors are discussed. In the measuring range accessible (0.1 to 7000 kPa/ –30 to 600°C), certain boiling points and vapor pressure curves plotted therefrom agree very well with values specified in the literature. Extrapolation of these vapor pressure curves to the pressure range up to 0.1 mPa gives approximate values, the orders of magnitude of which are in agreement with those measured by means of other methods. Vapor pressure curves of oleochemical substances are presented.

Zusammenfassung Der Aufbau eines Meßplatzes zur Dampfdruckbestimmung mit der DSC nach der dynamischen Methode (Messung der Siedetemperaturen bei verschiedenen Drücken) wird beschrieben. Meßbedingungen, wesentliche Versuchsparameter, typische Störungen und Meßfehler werden diskutiert. Im zugänglichen Meßbereich (0,1 bis 7000 kPa/–30 bis 600°C) bestimmte Siedepunkte und daraus ermittelte Dampfdruckkurven stimmen sehr gut mit Literaturangaben überein. Die Extrapolation der Dampfdruckkurven in den Druckbereich bis 0,1 mPa liefert näherungsweise Werte, die mit nach anderen Verfahren gemessenen Werten in der Größenordnung übereinstimmen. Dampfdruckkurven von fettchemischen Substanzen werden vorgestellt.

Temperature-dependence of electromechanical coupling and strain in barium titanate hafnate transducer

The electromechanical coupling factor and ferroelectric hysteresis loops were investigated at different temperatures for BaTi_0.85Hf_0.15O₃ transducer. Maximum polarization and strain were obtained near the transition of the crystal structure. This correlated with increases in the ease and extent of ferroelectric domain boundary motion. The change in the crystal structure varied the unit cell volume, leading to higher strain.

Polarisation und Deformation nehmen in der Nähe des Umwandlungspunktes der Kristallstruktur maximale Werte an. Dies korreliert mit Leichtigkeit und Außmaß der Grenzbewegung im ferromagnetischen Bereich. Die mit der Umwandlung der Kristallstruktur zusammenhängende Veränderung des Elementarzellenvolumens führt zu größerer Verformung.

TPD studies of hydrogen adsorption on group VIII metals

Hydrogen desorption proceeds in several temperature regions and differs by its order of magnitude and activation energy. Differential curves of adsorbed hydrogen distribution with respect to the desorption activation energy, dN/dE (E), show a considerable inhomogeneity of adsorbed atomic species and the energetic homogeneity of molecular species.

AES studies on a Pd-modified silver catalyst

Silver crystals electrodeposited from AgNO₃ (8%) and Pd²⁺ (250 mg/dm³) electrolyte before and after exposing to the conditions of the methanol to formaldehyde oxidation process were investigated by AES. Carbon, sulfur, oxygen and palladium on the surface were observed. Higher Pd concentration on the silver surface than in the bulk was found. Its amount on the surface decreased with the temperature increase.
