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.

Carbon content and H2 chemisorption of a regenerated Pt catalyst

The effect of the cracking of¹⁴C-labelled cyclohexene on the chemisorption (thermodesorption) of hydrogen on a thermally treated Pt powder catalyst has been studied. It has been established that (i) under the usual conditions of regeneration (calcination of the catalyst at 500°C for 1–2 hrs in a stream of air) the products of cracking cannot be completely removed from the catalyst, and (ii) as compared with the pure catalyst, the carbon deposit content of the catalyst not only increases the amount of chemisorbed hydrogen but also leads to new desorption peaks on the thermodesorption curve.

Sorption/evolution of oxygen from V₂O₅ in the temperature range of 480–520°C is due to a shift in the defect equilibrium 1/2 O₂ (gas)+V_oO_o. A first-order kinetic equation can be derived under the assumption that the activation energy depends on the concentration of defects.

Experimental study of the initial stage of Li2SO4·H2O single crystal dehydration in vacuum

The initial stage of the Li₂SO₄·H₂O single crystal isothermal dehydration has been studied by means of quartz crystal microbalance. As found, weight loss in the initial process may be considered as H₂O molecule diffusion from a semiinfinite medium. The numerical values of the H₂O molecule diffusion in Li₂SO₄·H₂O have been calculated from the results obtained.

Kinetic parameters of the thermal decompositions of nitritonickelates(II)

Kinetic parameters of thermal decomposition of compounds of general formulaM ₂ ^I M ^II[Ni(NO₂)₆], whereM ^I= K⁺, Rb⁺ or Cs⁺ andM ^II= Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ or Ba²⁺, were investigated on the basis of the respective thermal curves. Calculations of the reaction order and activation energy carried out by the Coats-Redfern method and by Doyle's method (modified by Zsakó) gave similar results, The reaction order is 2 for all the compounds investigated. In the group of potassium salts the activation energy increases fromM ^II=Ca²⁺ toM ^II=Ba²⁺. In the groups of rubidium and caesium salts, the lowest activation energy is observed whenM ^II=Sr²⁺. Such behaviour of the nitritonickelates is explained in terms of structures and the principle of maximum density.

Die an Hand der Coats-Redfern Methode und der durch Zsakó modifizierten Doyleschen Methode durchgeführten Berechnungen der Reaktionsordnung und der Aktivierungsenergie ergaben ähnliche Resultate. Die Reaktionsordnung ist 2 für sämtliche untersuchten Verbindungen. In der Gruppe der Kaliumsalze steigt die Aktivierungsenergie vonM ^II=Ca²⁺ in RichtungM ^II=Ba²⁺ an. In der Gruppe der Rubidium- und Caesiumsalze wird die niedrigste Aktivierungsenergie beiM ^II=Sr²⁺ beobachtet. Dieses Verhalten der Nitritonickelate wird durch die Strukturen und das Prinzip der maximalen Dichte erklärt.

Temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and H2O from NH4NaX and CoNH4NaX zeolites

A study has been made of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH₃ and H₂O from samples of NH₄X and CoNH₄X zeolites of various degree of exchange. NH₃ TPD peaks could be explained by interaction of NH₃ with different Brönsted and Lewis acidic centers. Moreover a water peak at high temperatures allowed interpretations of the dehydroxylation, and by reason of the characteristic desorption temperatures a particular state of the Co²⁺ ions in the CoNH₄X zeolites is postulated.
