Crystallization of iron phosphate glasses

Differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy were employed in the investigation of crystalline products of FeO_x-P₂O₅ glasses generated by various heat treatments. In glasses with a high value of =Fe²⁺/(Fe²⁺ + Fe³⁺), absorption of oxygen occurs in a broad temperature range identified by TG. Depending on the value of , two exotherms appear in the DTA curves, the low-temperature one corresponding to crystallization of the Fe₃(PO₄)₂ type regions, and the high-temperature one being related to various phases with dominating FePO₄. Each exotherm has its own transformation region, identical in absolute value. The Mössbauer spectra of glasses which underwent thermal treatment at higher temperatures exhibit some indication of phases of the types Fe₃(PO₄)₂ · xH₂O and FePO₄ · xH₂O.

Zusammenfassung Differentialthermoanalyse (DTA), thermogravimetrische Analyse (TG), Röntgendiffraktion und Mössbauerspektroskopie wurden bei der Untersuchung (von kristalliner Produkte) durch verschiedene thermische Behandlungen hergestellten FeO_x-P₂O₅ Gläsern eingesetzt. In den Glasarten mit einem hohen Wert von =Fe²⁺/(Fe²⁺ + Fe³⁺) erfolgt die Sauerstoffabsorption in einem durch TG [nachgewiesenen breiten Temperaturbereich. In Abhängigkeit von dem -Wert erscheinen zwei Exothermen in den DTA-Kurven, von denen der bei niedriger Temperatur die Kristallisation des Fe₃(PO₄)₂ entspricht, und jener bei höheren Temperaturen in verschiedenen Phasen dem FePO₄. Jede Exotherme hat ihr eigenes Umwandlungsgebiet, das in absolutem Wert identisch ist. Die Mössbauer-Spektren der Gläser welche einer Wärmebehandlung bei höheren Temperaturen unterzogen worden sind, weisen einige Indikationsphasen der Typen Fe₃(PO₄)₂ · xH₂O und FePO₄ · xH₂O auf.

Das System KNbO3-Nb2O5

Zusammenfassung Das System KNbO₃–Nb₂O₅ wurde mit thermoanalytischen, dilatometrischen und röntgenographischen Methoden neu untersucht. Acht ternäre Verbindungen werden im Bereich von 0–50 Mol-% K₂O gefunden. Nur K₄Nb₆O₁₇ schmilzt kongruent, alle anderen zersetzen sich peritektisch. Bei den beiden niobreichaten ternären Verbindungen handelt es sich um Hochtemperaturphasen, die sich erst oberhalb 1273 bzw. 1551 K bilden. Drei der acht Verbindungen wandeln sich mit steigender Temperatur in ihre Hochtemperaturmodifikation um.

Oscillatory phenomena during ammonia oxidation in the presence of a PtRh catalyst

The paper describes oscillatory phenomena observed during ammonia oxidation on a PtRh catalyst in a single pellet reactor. The phenomena consist in periodical changes of the catalyst temperature and a periodical initiation of the reaction in the gas phase. They are interpreted via coupling of the catalytic dissociation and homogeneous oxidation of ammonia.

Hydrogenation of carbon monoxide catalysts prepared by pyrolysis of Co2(CO)8 on various oxide supports

Catalysts prepared by pyrolysis of Co₂(CO)₈ on oxide supports have been studied in the hydrogenation of CO. It is shown that MgO and -Al₂O₃-based catalysts are less active than those supported on SiO₂, TiO₂ and ZrO₂. The application of -Al₂O₃ as a support increases the relative yield of light hydrocarbons.

Verfolgung der Verbrennungsreaktionen Exothermer Massen auf Basis von Aluminium,Fluoriden und Natriumverbindungen mit Differenzialthermoanalyse

Zusammenfassung Das Verbrennen von Mischungen der exothermen Systeme Al-NaF-NaNO₃ und Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ wurde durch Röntgenanalyse ergänzte DTA untersucht. Um den Einfluß des durch Dissoziation von NaNO₃ gebildeten Sauerstoffs zu bestimmen wurden auch Mischungen, welche anstatt NaNO₃ NaNO₂ oder Na₂O₂ enthielten, geprüft.Zwei, bei 310° bzw. 850° einsetzende exotherme Reaktionen wurden in den Gemischen vom Typ Al-NaF-NaNO₃ gefunden. Die erste ist der Dissoziation von NaNO₃ zuzuschreiben, die zweite ist der Anwesenheit von Luft zuzuordnen.Beide exothermen Reaktionen wurden im System Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ in Richtung höherer Temperaturen verschoben. Die Untersuchung der NaNO₂- oder Na₂O₂-haltigen Gemische anstatt NaNO₃ zeigte, daß die Dissoziation von NaNO₃ den zum Verbrennen benötigten Sauerstoff liefert, andererseits würde letztere Reaktion sonst nur in begrenztem Ausmaß stattfinden.

Combustion of exothermic mixtures belonging to the system Al-NaF-NaNO₃ and Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ was investigated by DTA and X-ray analysis. In order to determine the influence of the oxygen generated by dissociation of NaNO₃, the mixtures containing NaNO₂ or Na₂O₂ instead of NaNO₃ were also examined.Two exothermic reactions starting at 310° and 850° rsp. were found in the mixtures of the Al-NaF-NaNO₃ type. The first is due to the dissociation of NaNO₃ and the second proceeds independence of the availability of air.Both exothermic reactions were shifted to higher temperatures in the system Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃. Investigation of the mixtures containing NaNO₂ or Na₂O₂ instead of NaNO₃ has proved that the dissociation of NaNO₃ supplies the oxygen required for combustion which should otherwise proceed only in a limited extent.

Résumé On a étudié, par ATD et par analyse aux rayons X, la combustion des mélanges exothermiques appartenant aux systèmes Al-NaF-NaNO₃ et Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃. Afin de déterminer l'influence de l'oxygène engendré par la dissociation de NaNO₃, on a étudié de même des mélanges contenant NaNO₂ ou Na₂O₂ au lieu de NaNO₃.On a trouvé, dans les mélanges du type Al-NaF-NaNO₃, des réactions exothermiques à partir des temperatures respectives de 310° et 850°. La première est due à la dissociation de NaNO₃ et la seconde dépend de l'air disponible.Dans le système Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ les deux réactions sont déplacées vers les températures plus élevées. L'examen de mélanges contenant NaNO₂ ou Na₂O₂ au lieu de NaNO₃ à montré que c'est la dissociation de NaNO₃ qui fournit l'oxygène nécessaire pour la combustion. Celleci n'aurait lieu, autrement, que d'une manière limitée.

Spectral and catalytic properties of a chromium-containing polymeric complex

The spectral and catalytic properties of octahedrally coordinated polymeric Cr³⁺ ions are compared with those of the same ions in-Cr₂O₃. A relationship between the character of the nearest ligand environment of the Cr³⁺ ion (according to spectral data) and the catalytic activity was found. The exchange interaction between Cr³⁺ ions of the polymer chain exerts no significant influence on the catalytic activity.

Catalytic activity of high-silicon TsVK and Y type zeolites

Conversion of paraffins on TsVK and Y zeolites follow a similar mechanism yielding the same intermediates. Low selectivity of Y zeolites with respect to aromatic hydrocarbons is attributed to the strong adsorption of these hydrocarbons on zeolites. It is assumed that the centers of strong adsorption are Al³⁺ ions in cationic positions in zeolite.

A gradientless flow microreactor

A simple flow microreactor can perform as a gradientless microreactor under suitable conditions so that, thanks to molecular diffusion, the reactant concentration is leveled out considerably. This was demonstrated on the basis of a mathematical analysis of the reactant concentration distribution in a flow reactor and the observation was confirmed experimentally. A simple flow microreactor was designed and its gradientless property was verified using carbon dioxide hydrogenation as a test reaction.
