Effect of Rh/Al2O3 on the reduction of ZnO in a mechanical mixture of these components

The effect of reoxidation temperature on TPR of 5% Rh/Al₂O₃ catalyst and its mechanical mixture with ZnO has been investigated. The results suggest bimodal character of supported rhodium and surprisingly high effect of this metal on ZnO reduction in the mixture.

Catalytic activity of transition metal silicides in hydrogen oxidation

The catalytic activity of transition metal silicides in H₂ oxidation is much higher compared to metal-like carbides, which can be due to the lower electronegativity of silicon compared to carbon.

Photochemical reactions of anthraquinone with hydrocarbons in the presence and absence of oxygen: Trapping of radical intermediates

Radical intermediates formed at 25°C in the presence and absence of oxygen during the photolysis of anthraquinone in aromatic, cyclic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents were trapped by 2,6-dichloronitrosobenzene, 2,6-dibromonitrosobenzene and 2,4,6-tribromonitrosobenzene. The resulting nitroxide radicals have been characterized in situ by ESR spectra.

Thermal stability and phase transformations in a commercial vanadia-molybdena alkali-promoted catalyst

Temperature-programmed decomposition, thermal analysis, thermogravimetry and high-temperature X-ray analysis have been used to investigate a commercial catalyst for the selective oxidation of benzene into maleic anhydride. It was shown that phase transformations took place in the vanadia-molybdena alkali-promoted catalyst. The transformations were caused either by high-temperature treatment or by catalytic work in an industrial plant. As a result, the-bronze phase was formed. In the high-temperature region a reversible transformation of the bronze phase was observed. This was interpreted as the phase transformation.

Zusammenfassung Temperaturprogrammierte Zersetzung, Thermoanalyse, Thermogravimetrie und Hochtemperatur-Röntgenanalyse wurden zur Untersuchung eines kommerziellen Katalysators für die selektive Oxydation von Benzol zu Maleinsäure herangezogen. Es wird gezeigt, daß in dem einen Alkalipromotor enthaltenden Vanadinoxid-Molybdänoxid-Katalysator Phasenübergänge vor sich gehen. Die Phasenübergänge, als deren Ergebnis eine-Bronzephase gebildet wird, wurden entweder durch Hochtemperaturbehandlung oder durch sich in einer industriellen Anlage während des Betriebes abspielenden Vorgänge verursacht. Im Bereich hoher Temperaturen wurde eine reversible Umwandlung der Bronzephase beobachtet, die als Phasenübergang interpretiert wurde.

Thermal decomposition of iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate in air in the presence of (basic) beryllium carbonate

Iron(II) sulphate heptahydrate undergoes decomposition in the presence of basic beryllium carbonate without any interaction with the carbonate. The components of the mixture decompose individually. Iron(II) sulphate decomposes with the formation of tetrahydrate, monohydrate, anhydrous salt, oxysulphate and ferric sulphate as intermediate phases. The basic beryllium carbonate decomposes to the oxide with BeO·BeCO₃ as the intermediate compound.

Die Komponenten des Gemisches zersetzen sich individuell. Die Zersetzung des Eisen(II)-sulfats verläuft über die Zwischenphasen Tetrahydrat, Monohydrat, wasserfreies Salz, Oxysulfat und Eisen(III)-sulfat. Das basische Berylliumcarbonat wird über die intermediäre Verbindung BeO·BeCO₃ in das Oxid überführt.

Lack of influence of the diffusion of free radicals in some photoreactions

Numerous authors have attempted to demonstrate, using theoretical calculations, the influence exerted by the diffusion of free radicals in the liquid phase upon chain photoreactions. We demonstrate here, after defining a coefficient of chemical diffusion, that the importance of diffusion processes can be neglected in the majority of cases.

State of components in group IV A metal modified nickel catalysts prepared via decomposition of metal complexes

The dispersity and state of components in (M+Ni)/SiO₂ catalysts (M=Ge, Sn, Pb), prepared via the reduction of anchored complexes, have been studied by chemisorption and electron microscopy. High dispersity of metallic particles (6Å) has been revealed. According to Mössbauer spectroscopy, in (Ni+Sn)/SiO₂ catalysts reduced at 873 K, a partial reduction of Sn to the metallic state is observed.

Effect of molecular rotations on capture in the ion-linear dipole system

It has been established that cation distribution in kaolinite, which becomes close to that in Na–A zeolite due to mechano-chemical activation and thermal treatment, promotes zeolite crystallization. Optimal conditions for calcining the initial kaolinite to produce zeolites are established.

Modification of Fe species in FeNaY zeolite by NaCl treatment

The treatment of Fe(III)NaY zeolite with NaCl solution does not lead to a back-exchange of ferric species but the cationic Fe rearranges into new complexes which are more deeply reduced by hydrogen and less self-reduced by vacuum heat treatment than the parent Fe species in FeNaY zeolite.
