Crystallization of iron phosphate glasses

Differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy were employed in the investigation of crystalline products of FeO_x-P₂O₅ glasses generated by various heat treatments. In glasses with a high value of =Fe²⁺/(Fe²⁺ + Fe³⁺), absorption of oxygen occurs in a broad temperature range identified by TG. Depending on the value of , two exotherms appear in the DTA curves, the low-temperature one corresponding to crystallization of the Fe₃(PO₄)₂ type regions, and the high-temperature one being related to various phases with dominating FePO₄. Each exotherm has its own transformation region, identical in absolute value. The Mössbauer spectra of glasses which underwent thermal treatment at higher temperatures exhibit some indication of phases of the types Fe₃(PO₄)₂ · xH₂O and FePO₄ · xH₂O.

Zusammenfassung Differentialthermoanalyse (DTA), thermogravimetrische Analyse (TG), Röntgendiffraktion und Mössbauerspektroskopie wurden bei der Untersuchung (von kristalliner Produkte) durch verschiedene thermische Behandlungen hergestellten FeO_x-P₂O₅ Gläsern eingesetzt. In den Glasarten mit einem hohen Wert von =Fe²⁺/(Fe²⁺ + Fe³⁺) erfolgt die Sauerstoffabsorption in einem durch TG [nachgewiesenen breiten Temperaturbereich. In Abhängigkeit von dem -Wert erscheinen zwei Exothermen in den DTA-Kurven, von denen der bei niedriger Temperatur die Kristallisation des Fe₃(PO₄)₂ entspricht, und jener bei höheren Temperaturen in verschiedenen Phasen dem FePO₄. Jede Exotherme hat ihr eigenes Umwandlungsgebiet, das in absolutem Wert identisch ist. Die Mössbauer-Spektren der Gläser welche einer Wärmebehandlung bei höheren Temperaturen unterzogen worden sind, weisen einige Indikationsphasen der Typen Fe₃(PO₄)₂ · xH₂O und FePO₄ · xH₂O auf.

On the relationship between the structures of Cu(II) complexes and their chemical transformations IX

The Stoichiometry and the kinetics of thermal decomposition of the title compounds were studied. The results were correlated with the structures of the Cu(II) coordination polyhedra, which have in general a 4+2 type of coordination. It was shown that the equatorial Cu-H₂O bond distances are important for the found decomposition stoichiometries. As an intermediate of thermal decomposition, Cu(H₂O)₅(CH₃C₆H₄SO₃)₂ was prepared and characterized via its IR and electronic spectra and powder X-ray diffractogram. The experimental activation energies increase with increasing degree of tetragonality of the Cu(II) coordination polyhedron forX ^–=C₆H₅SO₃ and D-C₁₀ H ₁₅OSO₃, but decrease forX ^–=4-CH₃C₆H₄SO₃. TheE ^* value found for the decomposition of the latter compound can not be attributed to the chemical reaction.

Zusammenfassung Die Stöchiometrie und Kinetik der thermischen Zersetzung der Titelverbidungen wurde untersucht. Die Ergebnissen wurden auf die Strukturen der Cu(II) Koordinationspolyeder bezogen, die im allgemeinen eine 4+2 Koordination aufweisen. Die Länge der äquatorialen Cu-H₂O Bindung erwies sich als bedeutungsvoll für die ermittelte Stöchiometrie der Zersetzung. Das Zwischenprodukt Cu(H₂O)₅(CH₃C₆H₄SO₃)₂ der thermischen Zersetzung wurde dargestellt und mittels IR- und Elektronenspektren sowie Röntgenpulveraufnahmen beschrieben. Mit ansteigendem Tetragonalitätscharakter der Cu(II) Koordinationspolyeder wachsen die experimentell ermittelten Aktivierungsenergien fürX ^–=C₆H₅SO₃ und D-C₁₀H₁₅OSO₃ an, nehmen aber fürX ^–= 4-CH₃C₆H₄SO₃ ab. Der für letztere Verbindung ermittelteE ^* Wert kann der chemischen Reaktion nicht zugeschrieben werden.

Crystallite size effect of Pd/charcoal catalysts for benzene hydrogenation

The dispersity, calculated from the particle size distribution functions obtained by Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) measurements, when related to the chemical behavior of Pd/charcoal catalysts in benzene hydrogenation, points out that this reaction is mildly structure-sensitive below the range of 40 Å, whereas no dependence on particle size is observed above this limit.

A temperature programmed desorption study of H2 from supported nickel catalyst

The chemisorption of hydrogen on Ni/SiO₂ has been studied by measuring temperature programmed desorption on various samples under various experimental conditions. Two peaks are found, which can be related to a weakly and to a strongly bound species of chemisorbed hydrogen. Their analysis has been performed by a method which makes possible to determine whether a certain kinetic model can describe the entire desorption process or to assign a clear meaning to the corresponding kinetic parameters.

Acidities of synthetic H,Na–MOR samples decationized to different degrees have been characterized by differential adsorption heat distribution of ammonia. A fairly good correlation has been found between the number of acid sites of different strengths and the catalytic activity as well as the selectivity for xylene isomerization and disproportionation. The results are correlated with the mechanism of these reactions.

Some spectroscopic and freezing point depression measurements on the homogeneous hydrogenation catalyst CoH3(PPh3)3

NMR, EPR and freezing point depression (FPD) experiments were performed on solutions of the homogeneous hydrogenation catalyst CoH₃(PPh₃)₃. The results of these measurements show that the compound has a dynamic structure on the NMR time scale at room temperature and that it is slightly dissociated into bisphosphine species and free phosphine. FPD and¹H-NMR measurements indicate that one Et₂O molecule is present per catalyst molecule.

Décomposition thermique du sulfite de fer(II) anhydre

Résumé Sous azote ou sous vide, le sulfite ferreux anhydre se décompose vers 210° en magnétite, pyrite et dioxyde de soufre. Concurremment une réaction de dismutation intervient avec formation de FeSO₄, Fe₃O₄ et FeS₂. Lorsque la température atteint 320°, la pyrite et le sulfate réagissent ensemble pour donner Fe_1–xS, Fe₃O₄ et SO₂. Au-delà de 370° le sulfure ferreux non-stchiométrique commence à réagir à son tour avec le sulfate restant pour former de la magnetite et du dioxyde de soufre.

In nitrogen or under vacuum, anhydrous iron(II) sulfite decomposes near 210° to magnetite, pyrite and sulfur dioxide. A parallel disproportionation reaction occurs with formation of FeSO₄, Fe₃O₄ and FeS₂. When the temperature reaches 320°, pyrite and sulfate react together to give Fe_1–xS, Fe₃O₄ and SO₂. Above 370° the non-stoichiometric ferrous sulfide begins to react with the remaining sulfate to give magnetite and sulfur dioxide.

Liquid phase CO+H2 reactions in presence of ruthenium catalysts

Several effects on the hydrogenation of carbon monoxide in propanol in presence of ruthenium catalysts are examined. The homologation reaction is not observed, only propyl formate and propyl acetate are produced with any ruthenium catalyst. The pH-value is an important parameter: in acid media, the yield of propyl formate is noticeably increased indicating different catalytic active species. The addition of cesium salts is also benefitial for formate formation. This is not the case when water is associated with propanol as solvent. Finally, no ethylene glycol is detected. The process is found to be homogeneous and methanol seems to be the precursor of methyl formate.

A gradientless flow microreactor

A simple flow microreactor can perform as a gradientless microreactor under suitable conditions so that, thanks to molecular diffusion, the reactant concentration is leveled out considerably. This was demonstrated on the basis of a mathematical analysis of the reactant concentration distribution in a flow reactor and the observation was confirmed experimentally. A simple flow microreactor was designed and its gradientless property was verified using carbon dioxide hydrogenation as a test reaction.

Hexadiene formation during decomposition of 2-propanol over Ca?P?O catalysts

Hexadiene formation from 2-propanol was investigated in view of acid-base properties of Ca–P–O catalysts with the Ca/P atomic ratio varying from 1.5 to 5.0. The catalytic activity in hexadiene formation increased up to a maximum at Ca/P=2.0, having almost the same amount of weak acidic sites as weak basic sites, and decreased with futher increase in Ca/P ratio.
