On the occurrence of competitive mechanisms in the transformation of butadiene into maleic anhydride with air on MoO3?TiO2 catalysts

Unusual variations of selectivity are observed in the catalytic oxidation of butadiene on MoO₃–TiO₂ catalysts. A maximum of selectivity in furan and maleic anhydride is obtained at 400°C, since the oxidation of crotonaldehyde, dihydrofuran and furan are selective at all temperatures. Competitive oxidation of furan and crotonaldehyde proved that the aldehyde cannot be the unique intermediate for furan and maleic anhydride formation. Two mechanisms, involving various adsorbed species of butadiene, occur depending on the temperature and explain the decrease of the selectivity below 400°C.

Structure of Pt/ZnAl2O4 catalysts

The effect of the support preparation technique (solgel and coprecipitation) on the final Pt/ZnAl₂O₄ catalyst is presented. The structural properties of the solids obtained are correlated to the selectivity and activity for isobutane dehydrogenation in H₂ and He reaction media. If a highly dispersed catalyst is suitable, the support has to be prepared by the sol-gel method.

Catalytic decomposition of N2O on La2CuO4 in the presence of LaNi5 alloy

Decomposition of N₂O has been studied on pure La₂CuO₄, La₂CuO₄ with 5 and 10 wt. % LaNi₅ and oxidized LaNi₅ in the temperature range of 240–490 °C at 50 and 200 Torr initial pressures of N₂O. The addition of LaNi₅ decreases the energy of activation compared to that of La₂CuO₄ which has been explained based on the dispersity of NiO over La₂CuO₄.

The consistency of repeated H2?O2 titration cycles on supported Pt catalysts

H₂ and O₂ uptakes at 296 K on a Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst remained constant during repeated H₂–O₂ titration cycles conducted in a high vacuum adsorption system. Previously reported variations in these uptakes are attributed to adsorption of contaminants during desorption conditions. Also, it was found that nearly 40% of the H₂ adsorbed could be removed by degassing at 296 K for 1 hr.

Determination of reaction rate parameters using heat conduction microcalorimetry

By using the LKB 2277 thermal activity monitor, it is demonstrated that both ampoule and flow-through modes can be used to monitor the reaction parameters for chemical reactions. Theoretical relationships applicable to first-order reactions are proposed and compared with those reported in the literature. Mathematical relationships applicable to second-order reactions are also proposed. The experimental results confirmed the validity of the theoretical relationships and showed that flow microcalorimetry is a rapid technique in kinetic studies.
