Effects of radioactivity on surfaces: I. Influence of Cr-51 on the catalytic activity of chromium catalysts

Chromium catalysts were prepared on monolith supports, some of them with radioactive Cr-51 in the surface. The dehydrogenation-hydrogenation reaction of cyclohexene was used to compare the catalytic activities of the radioactive and inactive catalysts. Differences were observed in the distribution of the main products at low temperatures and of the byproducts also at high temperatures.

Influence of the chlorine content of Al2O3 on its catalytic activity and coke formation

The catalytic activities of aluminas with different chlorine contents for cumene cracking, o-xylene isomerization, n-hexane isomerization and cracking and methylcyclopentane cracking were studied. The catalytic activity and the acidity increase continuously when the chlorine content increases. Coke formation is only noticiable with methylcyclopentane, increasing with the chlorine content of the alumina.

Thermal investigation of active carbons in presence of air

Thermal analysis data on the oxidation reaction between air and active carbons obtained during activation by carbon dioxide are presented. The correlation between the modified DTA curves and the TG curves leads to the conclusion that the oxidation of active carbons in the temperature range from 20 to 1000° is a two-step process. It is pointed out that the oxidation reactions in the low-temperature region (450–550°) are governed by the oxygen content of the samples, whereas the reactions in the higher temperature region (550–850°) are controlled by the diffusion process.

Zusammenfassung Die thermoanalytischen Ergebnisse über die während der Aktivierung durch Kohlendioxid stattfindende Oxidationsreaktion zwischen Luft und Aktivkohlen werden vorgestellt. Die Korrelation zwischen den modifizierten DTA-Kurven und den TG-Kurven führte zur Schlußfolgerung, daß die Oxidation der Aktivkohlen im Temperaturbereich von 20 bis 1000° ein Zweistufen-Vorgang ist. Es wird betont, daß die Oxidationsreaktion im niedrigen Temperaturbereich (450 bis 550°) durch den Sauerstoffgehalt der Proben gesteuert wird, während er im Bereich der höheren Temperaturen (550 bis 850°) durch Diffusionsvorgänge geregelt wird.

Résumé On présente les résultats de l'étude par analyse thermique de la réaction d'oxydation des charbons actifs par l'air qui a lieu lors de l'activation par l'anhydride carbonique. La corrélation entre les courbes ATD modifiées et les courbes TG conduit à la conclusion que l'oxydation des charbons actifs s'effectue entre 20 et 1000°, suivant un processus en deux étapes. Dans l'intervalle des températures faibles (450 à 550°) les réactions d'oxydation sont gouvernées par la teneur en oxygène des échantillons tandis qu aux températures plus élevées (550 à 850°) elles le sont par le processus de diffusion.

Thermal decomposition of copper(II)phthalate monohydrate

The thermal dehydration and decomposition of copper(II) phthalate monohydrate was studied by isothermal and non-isothermal methods. The decomposition process consisted of three steps: two steps of dehydration and the third of decomposition. The kinetics of isothermal dehydration reactions follow (i) a unimolecular law up to the formation of copper(II) phthalate hemihydrate, and (ii) a phase boundary model giving anhydrous copper(II) phthalate, while the kinetics of isothermal decomposition reaction comply with the Erofeev-Avrami equation, [–ln(1–)]^1/n =Kt+C. The energies of activation for the formation of the decomposition products were calculated. The decomposition products were characterized by elemental analysis, photomicrographic observations, infrared and reflectance spectra and X-ray powder diffraction data.

Der Zersetzungsvorgang bestand aus drei Stufen: zwei Stufen der Dehydratisierung und die dritte der Zersetzung. Die Kinetik der isothermen Dehydratisierungsreaktionen folgt (i) einem unimolekularen Gesetz bis zur Bildung von Kupfer(II)Phthalat Hemihydrat und (ii) einem Grenzflächen modell, das wasserfreies Kupfer(II)Phthalat ergibt, während die Kinetik der isothermen Zersetzungsreaktion der Erofeev-Avrami Gleichung, [–ln(1–)]^1/n =Kt+C genügt. Die Aktivierungsenergien für die Bildung der Zersetzungsprodukte wurden berechnet. Die Zersetzungsprodukte wurden durch Elementaranalyse, mikrophotographische Beobachtungen, Infrarot- und Remissionsspektra sowie Röntgen-Pulverdiffraktionsdaten charakterisiert.

Ethanolysis of penta- and tetramethyldisiloxane catalyzed by aqueous hydrochloric acid

The rates of cleavage of the Si–H bond of penta- and tetramethyldisiloxane have been studied. The reaction is first order in the silane and in the dilute acid. However, at high acid concentrations, the rate of reaction is governed by the acidity function of the system: this may indicate fast reversible proton transfer from the solvent to the organosilane in the rate-determining step.

X-ray study of Re/Al2O3 and Re+Pt/Al2O3 catalysts using synchrotron radiation

Uning synchrotron radiation, L_III rhenium absorption spectra have been studied for Re/Al₂O₃ and Re+Pt/Al₂O₃ catalysts obtained by impregnation. For individual rhenium compounds a linear dependence between the shift of absorption edge and the state of rhenium oxidation has been found. The absorption spectra of reduced catalysts are significantly broadened as compared with those of individual compounds of the same valency. This points to the presence of rhenium compounds in different oxidation states.

The cause for a fall in the conversion of NH₃ to NO within 73 hours from 97% to 78% with a cobalt oxide catalyst was investigated. Results show that sintering, change in valence and cation distribution in Co₃O₄ contribute to the decrease in activity. Incorporation of ThO₂ and K₂O improves the performance of the catalyst.

Reaction scheme in the non-isothermal decomposition of (C6H5NH3)4Mo8O26 · 2 H2O

The thermogravimetric decomposition of anilinum octamolybdate has been studied under non-isothermal conditions to elucidate the chemical reactions taking place in the first step of decomposition of the anhydrous compound.The decomposition products were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction.The main decomposition product of aniline turned out to be indole, which is different from the major product in the isothermal decomposition at the same temperature, i.e. N-ethyl-aniline.A dehydrocyclization reaction is suggested as the rate-dependent process. This is probably due to the catalytic effect of the octamolybdate anion.

Zusammenfassung Die thermische Zersetzung von Anilinoctamolybdat wurde unter nicht-isothermen Bedingungen thermogravimetrisch untersucht, um die im ersten Zersetzungsschritt der wasserfreien Verbindung verlaufenden chemischen Reaktionen aufzuklären. Die Zersetzungsprodukte wurden mittels Gas-Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie, Gaschromatographie-Massenspektrometrie (GC/MS), Infrarotspektroskopie und Röntgendiffraktometrie analysiert. Als Hauptprodukt der Zersetzung von Anilin wurde Indol gefunden, während bei isothermer Zersetzung bei gleicher Temperatur vorwiegend N-Äthylanilin entsteht. Es wird angenommen, daß beim nicht-isothermen Prozeß eine wahrscheinlich durch das Octamolybdat katalysierte Dehydrocyclisierungsreaktion verläuft.

Catalytic decomposition of isopropyl alcohol on iron(II) sulfide

The decomposition of isopropyl alcohol on troilite (FeS) which was thermally activated at 873, 973 and 1073 K, is described in this paper. The catalyst subjected to thermal activation exhibits improved activity, which increases with temperature of activation. It has been observed that the apparent activation energy E and the preexponential factor A have a compensating effect. The experiments involving the preadsorption of pyridine have shown that this substance is preferentially and irreversibly adsorbed on hydrogenation active centers.
