Hydrogenation of toluene over Pt and Pt?Cu alloys in NaY

The hydrogenation of toluene is performed over small Pt and Pt–Cu particles in a NaY zeolite. For toluene hydrogenation the T.O.N. of Pt and Pt alloyed with Cu are very different at room temperature but at high temperature (530 K) they are of the same order of magnitude.

Potential for coal calorific value corrections,dependent on the carbonate mineral type present

In addition to calcite, other carbonate minerals in coal all undergo endothermic reactions on heating, i.e. dolomite, ankerite, siderite, aragonite, magnesite, rhodochrosite, witherite and strontianite. Of these, when determined in air, siderite and rhodochrosite give small exothermic resultants, while the amount of Fe in ankerites affects the actual endothermic values obtained. The magnitude of these carbonate decomposition reactions can be shown by DTA to be different and will need to be allowed for individually in calorific value corrections of coals containing them.

Zusammenfassung Nicht nur Kalkspat, sondern auch andere in Kohle vorkommende Karbonatmineralien wie z. B. Dolomit, Ankerit, Spateisenstein, Aragonit, Magnesit, roter Braunstein, Witherit und Strontionit gehen bei Erhitzen endothermische Reaktionen ein. Von diesen zeigen Spateisenstein und roter Braunstein exotherme Ergebnisse kleinen Wertes, während der Betrag an Eisengehalt in Ankeriten den jeweils gemessenen endothermischen Wert beeinflußt. Das Ausmaß dieser Karbonatzersetzungsreaktionen kann durch DTA-Messungen als unterschiedlich nachgewiesen werden und muß bei den Kaloriewertkorrektionen für Kohlen, die diese Mineralien enthalten, berücksichtigt werden.

Thermal decomposition of zirconyl oxalates

Conditions for the preparation of stoichiometric barium zirconyl oxalate heptahydrate (BZO) have been standardized. The thermal decomposition of BZO has been investigated employing TG, DTG and DTA techniques and chemical and gas analysis. The decomposition proceeds through four steps and is not affected much by the surrounding gas atmosphere. Both dehydration and oxalate decomposition take place in two steps. The formation of a transient intermediate containing both oxalate and carbonate groups is inferred. The decomposition of oxalate groups results in a carbonate of composition Ba₂Zr₂O₅CO₃, which decomposes between 600 and 800° and yields barium zirconate. Chemical analysis, IR spectra and X-ray powder diffraction data support the identity of the intermediate as a separate entity.

Zusammenfassung Die Bedingungen für die Herstellung von stöchiometrischem Barium-zirconyl-oxalat Heptahydrat (BZO) wurden standardisiert. Die thermische Zersetzung von BZO wurde unter Einsatz der TG-, DTG- und DTA, sowie der chemischen und Gasanalyse untersucht. Die Zersetzung verläuft über vier Stufen und wird von der umgebenden Gasathmosphäre nicht besonders beeinflusst. Sowohl die Dehydratisierung als auch die Oxalatzersetzung erfolgt in zwei Stufen. Die Bildung einer intermediären Übergangsverbindung mit sowohl Oxalat- als auch Carbonatgruppen wirken hierbei mit. Die Zersetzung der Oxalatgruppen ergibt ein Carbonat der Zusammensetzung Ba₂Zr₂O₅CO₃, das zwischen 600 und 800° zersetzt wird und Bariumzirconat ergibt. Die Angaben der chemischen Analyse, der IR-Spekren und der Röntgen-Pulver-Diffraktion unterstützen die Identität der Intermediärverbindung als eine separate Einheit.

Résumé On a standardisé les conditions de préparation de l'oxalate heptahydraté de zirconyle et de baryum (BZO) stoechiométrique. On a étudié la décomposition thermique de BZO par TG, TGD et ATD ainsi que par analyses chimiques et analyses des gaz. La décomposition a lieu en quatre étapes et n'est pas trop influencée par l'atmosphère ambiante. La déshydratation et la décomposition de l'oxalate ont lieu en deux étapes. Il se forme un composé intermédiaire de transition contenant à la fois les groupes oxalate et carbonate. La décomposition des groupes oxalate fournit un carbonate de composition Ba₂Zr₂O₅CO₃ qui se décompose entre 600 et 800° pour fournir du zirconate de baryum. L'analyse chimique, les spectres IR et la diffraction des rayons X sur poudre, apportent les preuves de l'existence d'un composé intermédiaire comme entité séparée.

Conformational transition of kappa-carrageenan

The calorimetry of kappa carrageenan using differential scanning calorimetry and calorimetry at constant temperature is presented. Both sets of experimental results confirmed the formation of a helical dimer in the absence of gel formation. When gel is formed, the formation of a helical dimer is the major effect, the contribution of gelation represents only 20% of the enthalpy recorded.

Zusammenfassung Es wird über die Kalorimetrie von Kappacarrageen mittels DSC und Kalorimetrie bei konstanter Temperatur berichtet. Die experimentellen Resultate bestätigen beim Ausbleiben der Gelbildung, daß ein helixartiges Dimer gebildet wird. Auch bei Gelbildung steuert die Bildung des helixartigen Dimers den Hauptanteil zum thermischen Effekt bei, der Beitrag der Gelierung stellt nur etwa 20% der registrierten Enthalpie dar.

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.

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.

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.

Kinetics of propylene oxidation in the region of negative temperature coefficients of the rate

Kinetic regularities in the consumption of initial reactants and the accumulation of propylene oxidation products has been studied in the region of negative temperature coefficients of the maximum reaction rate (T=648–723 K). It has been revealed that for prolynene-enriched mixtures (C₃H₆:O₂=3:1) at P-20.66 kPa, the reaction rate is practically independent of the temperature, whereas for poor mixtures (C₃H₆:O₂=1:5) it decreases with increasing temperature.
