Formation of hexagonal MoO3 upon the decomposition of silica-supported ammonium paramolybdate

Upon the decomposition of silica-supported ammonium paramolybdate, hexagonal MoO₃ is formed at 300–350 °C. Irreversible transformation of hexagonal to rhombic MoO₃ is observed with increasing calcination temperature. The hexagonal MoO₃ structure is probably stabilized by the insertion of ammonium and silicon ions into the lattice of molybdenum trioxide.

Oxidation of ethylene to ethylene oxide: A tpr study on fresh and aged catalysts

The deactivation of a silver catalyst was investigated after six years of industrial production of ethylene oxide. Temperature-programmed reduction was used to characterize the chemical nature of the silver and its reactivity towards oxygen. The fresh and some aged catalysts were examined, also after different thermal treatments.During the industrial run, the surface species were modified and some oxygen diffused into the bulk of the metal. Aging caused permanent changes in the characteristics of the silver, resulting in a different interaction with oxygen. The TPR spectra exhibited a trend along the reactor axis, suggesting a correlation with the degree of deactivation of the catalyst.

Zusammenfassung Die Desaktivierung eines Silberkatalysators wurde nach 6-jährigem Einsatz zur industriellen Produktion untersucht. Temperaturprogrammierte Reduktion wurde angewandt, um die chemische Natur des Silbers und dessen Reaktivität gegenüber Sauerstoff zu charakterisieren. Frische und einige gealterte Katalysatoren wurden nach verschiedenen thermischen Vorbehandlungen untersucht. Die Alterung verursachte bleibende Veränderungen in charakteristischen Eigenschaften des Silbers, was in der unterschiedlichen Wechselwirkung mit Sauerstoff zum Ausdruck kommt. Die TPR-Resultate zeigen einen Trend entlang der Reaktorachse, was auf eine Korrelation mit dem Grad der Desaktivierung des Katalysators hindeutet.

The kinetics of the thermal degradation of calcium carbonate

The decomposition of calcium carbonate fine powder in a flowing nitrogen atmosphere has been investigated by non-isothermal thermogravimetry at heating rates in the range, 10–50 deg min^–1. The analog percentage weight change record was digitized at 1 deg intervals. The resulting data, transformed into dimensionless extents of reaction and calculated rates of reaction, was then subjected to the Arrhenius, Friedman and Generalized Kissinger analyses, using a recently developed FORTRAN program system. The value ofn namely 0.39 ±0.04, resulting when the data is analyzed assuming an nth order reaction, strongly indicates that the most probable rate controlling step is a three-dimensional diffusion process (D4 mechanism), withE=172.4 kJ·mol^–1 andA=1.97·10⁴ K^–1·min^–1. Reasons for the wide disparity in previously reported kinetic data are discussed.

Zusammenfassung Die Zersetzung von feinpulvrigem Calciumcarbonat im Stickstoffstrom wurde durch nicht-isotherme Thermogravimetrie bei Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten von 10–50 °C/min untersucht. Die analoge prozentuale Gewichtsverlustregistrierung wurde in Intervallen von einem Grad digitalisiert. Die erhaltenen, in solche eines dimensionslosen Reaktionsgradcs überführten Daten und berechnete Reaktionsgeschwindigkeiten wurden der Arrhenius-, der Friedmann- und einer verallgemeinerten Kissinger-Analyse unterzogen, wobei ein kürzlich aufgestelltes FORTRAN-Programm benutzt wurde. Der unter der Annahme einer Reaktion n-ter Ordnung fürn erhaltene Wert von 0.39 ±0.04 ist ein nachdrücklicher Hinweis darauf, daß der geschwindigkeitsbestimmende Schritt höchstwahrscheinlich ein dreidimensionaler Diffusionsprozeß (D4-Mechanismus) mitE=172.4 kJ·mol^–1 undA=1.97·10⁴ K^–1·min^–1 ist. Gründe für die weitreichende Verschiedenheit der bisher mitgeteilten kinetischen Daten werden diskutirt.

The evaporation of potassium from phlogopite

The evaporation of potassium from phlogopite was investigated by roasting phlogopite with different chemical reagents. The possible reactions between reactants and the sample at different temperatures were investigated by thermogravimetry. Gypsum, calcite, sodium chloride, activated carbon, calcium chloride and fluoride were used as chemical reactants. Similar tests were carried out by batch experiments using muffle furnace and tube oven and finally the sample mixtures were heated in a vacuum. The use of a vacuum enabled an almost complete extraction of potassium in solid state at the lowest temperature so far investigated. The structure of phlogopite was shown to be destroyed by raising the temperature. The extraction of potassium from feldspar, a sample from Lohja, Finland was also investigated.

Zusammenfassung Beim Abrösten von Phlogopit mit verschiedenen chemischen Stoffen wurde das Verdampfen von Kalium aus Phlogopit untersucht. Die möglichen Reaktionen zwischen der Probe und der Reaktionspartnern bei verschiedenen Temperaturen wurden mittels Thermogravimetrie untersucht. Als Reaktant wurden Gips, Kalzit, Natriumchlorid, Aktivkohle, Kalziumchlorid und -fluorid verwendet. Ähnliche Untersuchungen wurden in Reihenexperimenten mittels Muffel- und Röhrenofen und letztlich durch Erhitzen der Proben im Vakuum durchgeführt. Die Anwendung von Vakuum ermöglicht bei den niedrigsten der angewendeten Temperaturen einen fast vollständigen Auszug des Kaliums aus dem Feststoff, Durch Erhöhen der Temperatur wurde die Struktur von Phlogopit nachweislich zerstört. Die Extraktion von Kalium aus einer Feldspatprobe aus Lohja, Finnland, wurde ebenfalls untersucht.

Investigation of surface phenomena on solid catalysts by simultaneous thermogravimetry and DTA

Thermogravimetry and simultaneous DTA were used to investigate the phenomena of adsorption, desorption and surface reactions on solid catalysts. The measurements were carried out with NaX and X-type ion-exchanged zeolites and silica-alumina gels (Ketjen) treated with sodium hydroxide in the presence of carbon dioxide. On the basis of the quantitative results it is possible to give an interpretation of the surface phenomena and to establish the existence of various active centres on the surfaces of the catalysts. In the case of the adsorption of carbon dioxide on X-type zeolites, the quantity of carbon dioxide adsorbed is much smaller on ion-exchanged zeolites than on NaX.

Zusammenfassung Thermogravimetrie und simultane DTA wurden zur Untersuchung der Adsorptions-, Desorptions-Erscheinungen und Oberflächenreaktionen an festen Katalysatoren eingesetzt. Die Messungen wurden and NaX und Zeolithen des Typs X sowie an Silika-Aluminiumoxidgelen Ketjen durchgeführt, welche mit Natriumhydroxid in Gegenwart von Kohlendioxid behandelt worden waren. Aufgrund der quantitativen Ergebnisse ist es möglich eine Deutung der Oberfiächenerscheinungen zu geben und die Existenz verschiedener aktiver Zentren an der Katalysatorenoberfläche nachzuweisen. Im Falle der Adsorption von Kohlendioxid an Zeolithen des Typs X ist die Menge des adsorbierten Kohlendioxids am Ionenaustauscher viel niedriger als am NaX.

Les mesures ont été effectuées avec des zéolites échangeuses d'ions de type NaX et X ainsi qu'avec des gels Ketjen silice-alumine traités par NaOH en présence de CO₂. Les résultats quantitatifs permettent de donner une interprétation des phénomènes de surface et d'établir l'existence de divers centres actifs à la surface des catalyseurs. Dans le cas de l'adsorption de CO₂ sur les zéolites de type X, la quantité de CO₂ adsorbé est beaucoup plus faible que sur les zéolites de type NaX.

Effect of the partial pressure of reactants on the selectivity of methylcyclopentane hydrogenolysis over a platinum catalyst

The kinetics of methylcyclopentane hydrogenolysis on a Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst (10% Pt) has been studied at 230°C. The selectivity to 2-methyl- and methylpentane formation depends on the partial pressures of the starting reactants (methylcyclopentane and hydrogen); the surface coverage by these reactants must be taken into account in selectivity studies.

Study of crystal transformations by an evolved gas analysis technique

Small organic molecules can be entrapped within inorganic crystalline materials during precipitation. The material has no apparent influence on solid-solid transition temperatures, but some of it is released during the transition.Detection of the escape is reproducible within 1°C and may be used for temperature calibration. More generally, the escape of the organic during chemical reactions could be used for many of the applications of emanation thermal analysis.In coupled systems such as DTA or TG with mass spectrometry, or other systems involving gas transport, the time delay of the system can be measured accurately.

Zusammenfassung Kleine organische Moleküle können während der Fällung in anorganische kristalline Substanzen eingeschlossen werden. Die Substanz hat keine scheinbare Wirkung auf Fest-Fest-Übergangstemperaturen, doch wird ein Teil derselben während des Überganges freigesetzt. Der Nachweis der freigesetzten Substanz ist innerhalb von 1°C reproduzierbar und kann zur Temperatureichung eingesetzt werden. Verallgemeinert könnte das Entfliehen organischer Substanzen im Laufe chemischer Reaktionen bei vielen Anwendungen der Emanations-Thermalanalyse eingesetzt werden. In gekoppelten Systemen, wie z.B. DTA oder TG mit Massenspektrometrie, oder andere Systeme mit Gastransport, kann die Verzögerung des Systems genau gemessen werden.

Résumé De petites molécules organiques peuvent se trouver incluses dans des substances inorganiques cristallines, au moment de la précipitation. Les températures de transition solidesolide ne s'en trouvent apparemment pas affectées mais une partie de ces molécules incluses peut être éliminée pendant la transition. La détection du matériau qui s'échappe est reproductible à 1°C près et se prête à l'étalonnage de la température. En termes plus généraux, le départ de la substance organique au cours des réactions chimiques peut être utilisé pour de nombreuses applications de l'analyse thermique d'émanation. Dans le cas de techniques associées, comme l'ATD ou la TG avec la spectrométrie de masse, ou encore d'autres techniques avec transport de gaz, on peut mesurer exactement le temps de réponse du système.

Preparation of a Ru/Al2O3 catalyst from Ru3(CO)12 infrared and XPS study

A supported ruthenium catalyst on alumina prepared from Ru₃(CO)₁₂ has been studied by infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The triatomic cluster is retained on the support but breaks down at 150°C. Complete elimination of the carbonyl groups requires heating at 350°C under vacuum. XPS studies show that the decomposed catalyst does not change on further reduction in H₂ at 400°C. The ruthenium atoms remain trapped within the pores of the support.
