Gel-immobilized catalytic systems for propylene dimerization containing organophosphorus ligands

Catalytic dimerization of propylene in the presence of macromolecular nickel complexes containing organophosphorus ligands has been studied. It has been established that the substitution of alkoxy groups of phosphorus atoms in the polymeric ligands does not affect the dimer composition but permits, within certain limits, to control catalyst activity.

Characterization of the interaction of CO and H2 at the ZnO surface by adsorption microcalorimetry

CO and H₂ are both chemisorbed by ZnO but H₂ is more sensitive than CO to the surroundings of adsorption sites. When the two gases are coadsorbed, a strong interaction occurs, ascribed to the formation of a possible precursor in methanol synthesis.

Studies on the thermal decompositions of As-triazine derivatives and their compounds with metal ions

The thermal decompositions of the new complex salts of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) with 5,6-diethoxyearbonylmethyl-3-seleno-1,2,4-triazine (HSeTEK) and 5,6-diethoxycarbonylmethyl-3-thio-1,2,4-triazine (HTTEK) were investigated on the basis of the respective thermal curves. The thermoanalytical investigations indicate that HSeTEK, HTTEK, and their complexes with metal ions all undergo three-stage changes as the temperature is raised. The stages of pyrolysis established from the thermal data were compared, and the rates and stages of pyrolysis were related to the structures of the compounds.

Platinum-palladium catalysts in hydrogenation of methylbenzenes

Hydrogenation of benzene, toluene, o,m and p-xylene over Pt, Pd and Pt–Pd/Al₂O₃ catalysts has been studied. Experimental data show that when Pd is added to Pt catalysts, a decrease in activity and changes in selectivity occur. This is explained by the formation of electron-deficient and electrorich metallic species.

“In situ” EPR studies of interaction between benzene and ZSM-5 zeolites

The effect of the state of adsorbed layers on the formation of monomeric and dimeric benzene cation-radicals (CR) on ZSM-5 zeolites has been studied. Removal of benzene is shown to be accompanied by disappearance of CR, which is reversible and takes place with preservation of the sites for their stabilization.

Reaction mechanism and principles of choosing catalysts for selective oxidation at C?H bonds

Reaction mechanism for selective oxidation of organic compounds at C–H bonds is discussed. The criteria of selecting catalysts for these reactions have been formulated; 1) fast heterolytic activation of C–H bonds; 2) relatively slow primary activation of oxygen; 3) fast diffusion of oxygen vacancies; 4) fast electron transfer from the adsorbed substrate to catalyst.

Thermal effects of contamination,adsorbed water and annealing on the DTA of powdered quartz

During the grinding of quartz, water is adsorbed from the atmosphere, but this water gave no detectable thermal effect on DTA because it was evolved uniformly up to 1000°. However, in conjunction with an iron contaminant, the adsorbed water was involved in an oxidation reaction causing noticeable thermal effects for quartz powdered in a vibration mill constructed of steel parts. When powdered so finely that the - inversion peak at 573° had disappeared, annealing caused a partial redevelopment of the peak but recrystallization of disrupted quartz was too small an effect to give any detectable exothermic peak on DTA.

Zusammenfassung Während des Vermahlens von Quartz wird Wasser aus der Atmosphäre adsorbiert, jedoch ergab dieses Wasser keinen nachweisbaren thermischen Effekt in der DTA, da es bis zu 1000° gleichmässig freigesetzt wird. Im Zusammenhang mit einer Eisen-Verunreinigung wurde jedoch das adsorbierte Wasser in eine Oxidationsreaktion einbezogen, welche beim in einer aus Stahlteilen gefertigten Vibrationsmühle zerpulvertem Quartz nachweisbare thermische Effekte verursachten. Wenn so fein pulverisiert wurde, daß der --Inversions-Peak bei 573° verschwunden war, verursachte eine Wärmebehandlung eine teilweise Wiederentwicklung des Peaks, jedoch war die Rekristallisation des zerstörten Quartzes zu geringfügig um einen nachweisbaren exothermen Peak in der DTA-Kurve zu ergeben.

Résumé Lors du broyage du quartz, il se produit une adsorption de l'eau atmosphérique mais cette eau ne donne pas d'effet thermique décelable par ATD car elle se dégage régulièrement jusqu'à 1000°. Cependant, en présence de fer comme contaminant, l'eau adsorbée intervient dans une réaction d'oxydation qui donne des effets thermiques perceptibles dans le cas de quartz pulvérisé dans un vibrobroyeur en acier. Si le quartz est en poudre assez fine pour que le pic d'inversion - à 573° disparaisse, le recuit provoque la réapparition partielle du pic. La recristallisation du quartz est cependant trop faible pour donner un effet exothermique décelable par ATD.

Creep compliance measurements by thermomechanical analysis—Parallel plate rheometry (TMA-PPR)

A method is described for measurement of creep compliance and apparent viscosity of thermoplastic materials above their glass transition temperatures. The method utilizes a standard thermomechanical analyzer (TMA) with minor modifications. Small samples in the shape of a flat-ended cylinder are compressed isothermally between parallel plates consisting of a special probe and the base of the sample platform. Previously derived physical relationships and experimental restraints are employed. Results are reported for a polystyrene standard and an electrophotographic toner at several temperatures. Standard time-temperature superposition techniques were used to construct creep compliance master curves for the toner. It is demonstrated that TMA is ideally suited for this type of measurement.

Zusammenfassung Eine Methode zur Messung der Kriechnachgiebigkeit und der scheinbaren Viskosität von thermoplastischen materialien oberhalb deren Glasumwandlungstemperaturen wird beschrieben. Es wurde ein thermomechanischer Standardanalyzer (TMA) mit geringfügigen Abänderungen benutzt. Kleine Proben in Form eines Zylinders mit ebenen Enden werden zwischen einer speziellen Sonde und der Basis der Probenplatte isotherm gepreßt. Vorausgehend abgeleitete physikalische Beziehungen und experimentelle Einschränkungen werden berücksichtigt. Ergebnisse werden für einen Polystyrolstandard und einen elektrophotographischen Toner und verschiedene Temperaturen angegeben. Standard-Techniken der Zeit-Temperatur-Überlagerung werden herangezogen, um Kriechnachgiebigkeitskurven für den Toner zu konstruieren. Es wird gezeigt, daß TMA für diesen Typ von Messungen ideal geeignet ist.
