Estimation of nonlinear relaxation of catalytic reactions

Nonlinear relaxation time has been considered as a differential characteristic determined by the reciprocal value of the relative decrease in the deviation rate of the current concentration vector of intermediates from that of their steady-state concentrations. This characteristic is used for the analysis of some model reactions.

Immobilized sol of cobalt(III) hydroxide as an efficient catalyst of water oxidation to dioxygen by the Ru(bpy)33+ complex

Catalysts of water oxidation to dioxygen by Ru(bpy) ₃ ³⁺ have been obtained by immobilization of colloidal Co(III) hydroxide on supports of the hydroxide types. These supports are found to be able either to enhance (Al(III), Bi(III), Sn(IV) and Ce(IV) hydroxides) or to weaken (Fe(III) and Mn(IV) hydroxides) the catalytic efficiency of the initial sol. The possible nature of the influence of the support is discussed.

Comparison of activities of cracking catalysts containing ZSM-5 and Y-zeolite

Studies on the catalytic cracking of diesel oil fraction with the boiling range of 493–603 K on H-ZSM-5 and RE, H-Y zeolites has been carried out. The results show that in the presence of H-ZSM-5 zeolite no significant increase in the yield of gasoline is observed. Higher percentage of unsaturated hydrocarbons in the gasoline and gases indicates that the hydrogen transfer activity of H-ZSM-5 containing catalyst is lower than that of RE, H-Y zeolites.

Kinetics of perborate oxidation of quinol

The perborate oxidation of quinol in aqueous acetic acid is first order with respect to perborate, zero order with respect to quinol, and first order with respect to H⁺. The oxidation is faster than H₂O₂ oxidation. Breakdown of protonated perboric acid is suggested as the rate-limiting step.

Poly(vinylpyridine) complexes of palladium as hydrogenation catalysts. Effect of polymeric ligand structure

The title complexes exhibit high catalytic activity, selectivity and stability in hydrogenation of allyl alcohol. The structure of a polymeric ligand (i.e. the position of the nitrogen atom in the pyridine ring) affects catalyst activity. According to the hydrogenation rates of allyl alcohol, the complexes studied are arranged in the sequence: P4VP-Pd>P2VP-Pd>P2M5VP-Pd.

Peculiarities of formation of ZnO and CuO-based solid solutions

Low-temperature (623 K) treatment of hydroxocarbonate compounds of copper-zinc and copper-zinc-aluminium leads to the formation of phases with CuO and ZnO structures, which are solid solutions of the promoter ions. The formation of solid solutions is attributed to structural distortions (uniform or local) in the oxide lattice due to the incomplete removal of OH^– and CO ₃ ^2– groups at low temperatures.

Nature of Lewis acidity in H-zeolites

It has been revealed that in crystalline aluminosilicates the three-coordinated aluminium ion belonging to the lattice is not the Lewis acid center. The latter is the off-lattice aluminium ion compensating the excess of the negative charge in the lattice or acting as cation valence-bonded to the oxygen anion of the SiO₄ tetrahedron.

Thermogravimetric characterization of Quayarah heavy crude oils

Five heavy crude oil samples from the Quayarah field were thermally evaluated using two modes of thermogravimetry (TG): dynamic and programmed TG with heating and hold-up periods at 350 and 550°. The light and medium volatility fraction (L+M) appeared directly proportional to the metal content. In contrast, the heavy fraction (H) (350–550°) was inversely proportional to the metal content. This contradiction was attributed to the autocatalytic degradation of some of the heavy fraction into lighter species, which upgrades the crude with respect to the (L+M) fraction at the expense of the heavy fraction. The crudes were identical with regard to the ratio (L+M) to (H+R), whereR=residue, as a consequence of their identical API gravity and sulphur contents.The rate of degradative volatilization of the heavy fraction was measured by DTG, which indicated a direct correlation with the vanadium content as regards the onset temperatures and the DTG peak maximum.

Zusammenfassung Fünf vom Quayarah-Feld stammende schwere Rohöle wurden mittels dynamischer und programmierter TG mit konstanten Perioden bei 350 und 550 °C charakterisiert. Der Anteil der leicht- und mittelflüchtigen Fraktion (L+M) schien proportional, der der schwerflüchtigen Fraktion (H) (350 550°) dagegen umgekehrt proportional dem Metallgehalt zu sein. Dieser Widerspruch wurde dem autokatalytischen Abbau einiger der schwerflüchtigen Komponenten zu leichteren Spezies zugeschrieben, der zu einer Erhöhung des Anteils der (L+M)-Fraktion auf Kosten der schwerflüchtigen Fraktion führt. Die Rohöle waren wegen der gleichen API-Schwere und gleicher Schwcfclgehalle hinsichtlich des Verhältnisses von (L+M) zu (H+R) identisch (R=Rückstand). Die Geschwindigkeit der degradaliven Verflüchtigung der schweren Fraktion wurde mittels DTG gemessen, wobei sich eine direkte Korrelation zwischen dem Vanadingehalt einerseits und der Einsatztemperatur bzw. dem DTG-Peakmaximum andererseits ergab.

La and Zn promotion of Ru Fischer-Tropsch catalysts

An investigation of the use of La- and Zn-promoters for Ru/SiO₂ F-T catalysts has been carried out. It was found that, while the use of a La-promoter did not result in any improvement over the use of a K one, Zn-promotion resulted in much higher yields of olefins. The CH₄ and olefin selectivities of the Zn-promoted Ru/SiO₂ were essentially insensitive to temperature over the range 250–320 °C. The Zn-promoted catalyst was found to have many of the same catalytic properties previously found for Ru/ZnO, but was much more active. Thus, it is possible to achieve certain interesting catalytic properties for Ru by the use of Zn-promotion without having to make use of the low surface area support ZnO.

Thermogravimetric study of the C + SiO2 reaction

The kinetics of the reaction of one-to-one molar mixtures of crystalline silica and carbon powder were studied using thermogravimetric analysis. The resulting kinetic data was evaluated using simple kinetic and mass transport models. A two-stage reaction mechanism consisting of three stoichiometric reactions can adequately be used to describe the global reaction phenomena. Both the first and second stages of reaction were found to be influenced by diffusion mass transfer within the reacting bed of solids.

Die kinetischen Angaben wurden mittels einfachen kinetischen und Stofftransportmodellen ausgewertet. Zu einer adäquaten Beschreibung der gesamten Reaktionserscheinung kann ein Zweischrittereaktionsmechanismus bestehend aus drei stöchiometrischen Reaktionen benutzt werden. Sowohl der erste als auch der zweite Reaktionsschritt wird durch diffusiven Stofftransport innerhalb des Reaktionsbettes beeinflußt.

Dehydrocyclization of 1-heptene-1-14C over chromia on non-acidic alumina

The dehydrocyclization of 1-heptene-1-¹⁴C has been investigated over a chromia on nonacidic alumina catalyst with the aim of determining the¹⁴C distribution in the ring of the toluene product. As high as 80% of the¹⁴C was consistently found in the methyl position as predicted for direct six-carbon ring formation.

Influence of functional rubbers on the curing process of unsaturated polyester resins

The influence of an elastomeric second-phase on the kinetics of the curing reaction and the gel-time of a standard unsaturated polyester resin, by using the isothermal and dynamic techniques of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and a thermocouple was investigated. In particular we examined two different rubbers (polybutadiene hydroxyl-terminated and polybutadiene isocyanate-terminated), that, in the presence of polyester resins, affect the overall curing reaction kinetics in two ways: the former reduces the rate of reaction whilst the latter increases it.

Insbesondere wurden zwei unterschiedliche Gummis (hydroxylendständiges und isocyanatendständiges Polybutadien) untersucht, die die Kinetik der Aushärtung des Polyasterharzes in unterschiedlicher Weise beeinflussen: hydroxylendständiges Polybutadien verringert, isocyanatendständiges dagegen erhöht die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit.
