Influence of added copper on the activity of Ni/Al2O3 catalysts in the hydrogenolysis of n-butane

The influence of small Cu admixture to the Ni/Al₂O₃ system on its activity in the hydrogenolysis of n-butane was studied in the temperature range of 723–573 K. The activity was measured in a gradientless reactor. Cu added to Ni/Al₂O₃ was found to have a strong influence on the overall activity, selectivity and ratio for n-butane hydrogenolysis. A mechanism of hydrogenolysis of n-butane on the Ni–Cu/Al₂O₃ system is proposed.

Activation energies in catalytic oxidation of benzene

The existence of a linear correlation between the apparent activation energy of benzene disappearance and the primary selectivity was demonstrated for a series of vanadia based catalysts. Analysis of this correlation leads to the conclusion that the activation energies of reaction 1 as well as activation energies of reaction 2 in benzene oxidation scheme do not differ significantly over a series of these catalysts.

The physico-chemical characterization of magnesium-modified ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts has been performed by differential scanning calorimetry.

Non-catalyzed oscillation reaction in the aniline-KBrO3?H2SO4 system. II. Reaction products and their oscillating behavior

By means of thin-layer and gas chromatography the reaction products have been determined in the oscillation system of aniline, KBrO₃ and H₂SO₄. These products include: 2-bromoaniline, 4-bromoaniline, 2,4-dibromoaniline, 2,4,6-tribromoaniline, 1,4-benzoquinone, 2-bromo-1,4-benzoquinone, 2,6-dibromo-1,4-benzoquinone and a brominated oxidation product. The brominated aniline derivatives do not exhibit an oscillating behavior, and the addition of these substances to an oscillating mixture damps the course of other oscillations.

Applications of thermoelectrometry to metal-ion modified polyimide films

As part of a research program to decrease the electrical resistivity of polyimide films with ionic additives a variable temperature three probe electrical resistivity measurement system has been designed and constructed. Sample temperature, electrification time, atmosphere, and measurement mode are computer controlled. As a data interpretation aid, temperature cycled analysis can be routinely performed. Surface resistivities in the range 10³–10¹⁵ ohm and volume resistivities in the range 10⁵–10¹⁸ ohm-cm are theoretically measurable under well controlled experimental conditions from room temperature to 250°. The electrical resistivity measurement system is useful for the evaluation of polymer films or films in general. Application of the system for analysis of cobalt, lithium and tin ion-modified polyimide films and some experimental considerations are presented. Correlation of the electrical measurements with differential scanning calorimetry, thermomechanical analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis is demonstrated.

Zusammenfassung Als Teil eines Forschungsprogramms zur Herabsetzung des elektrischen Widerstandes von Polyimidfilmen mit ionischen Additiven wurde ein 3-Proben-Meßsystem zur Ermittlung des elektrischen Widerstandes in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur entworfen und konstruiert. Probentemperatur, Elektrisierungszeit, Atmosphäre und Meßmethoden waren computergesteuert. Als Dateninterpretationshilfe kann eine hinsichtlich der Temperatur zyklische Analyse routinemäßig ausgeführt werden. Die Oberflächenwiderstände sind im Bereich von 10³–10¹⁵ Ohm und die Volumenwiderstände im Bereich von 10⁵–10¹⁸ Ohm-cm unter gut kontrollierten experimentellen Bedingungen von Raumtemperatur bis 250° theoretisch meßbar. Das elektrische Widerstandmeßsystem ist nützlich für die Bewertung von Polymerfilmen oder Filmen im allgemeinen. Die Anwendung des Systems zur Analyse von mit Co-, Li- und Sn-Ionen modifizierten Polyimidfilmen und einige experimentelle Hinweise werden angegeben. Es wird gezeigt, daß die mit dem beschriebenen System erhaltenen Resultate mit durch DSC, thermomechanische Analyse und TG erhaltenen Werten korrelieren.

Influence of cobalt phthalocyanine: Deposited onto the particles of mixed Cd/CuxS suspensions on photocatalytic evolution of hydrogen from aqueous solutions of Na2S

Deposition of water-insoluble cobalt phthalocyanine CoPc onto the particles of mixed suspensions of CdS and Cu_xS can increase the rate of photoinduced evolution of H₂ from Na₂S and Na₂SO₃ solutions. At [Na₂S]=5×10^–2 M, the rate of photocatalytic reaction is almost doubled upon deposition of 6.4×10^–10 mol CoPc onto 4×10^–5 mol of CdS and of 2.9×10^–8 mol of CoPc onto 10^–5 mol of Cu_xS. At [Na₂S]=10^–1 M, which is close to the optimal concentration of Na₂S, the deposition of CoPc can provide only a 30% increase of the reaction rate.

Diffusion effects in reversible energy transfer

Back energy transfer reduces the apparent quenching constant, which is an important parameter in the interpretation of energy transfer data. This determination of kinetic results may be erroneous when possible diffusion effects and non-uniform configurational distributions are not taken into account.

Electronic spectral study of the interaction of CoNaX zeolite with C1?C5 hydrocarbons

Interaction of both satured and unsaturated hydrocarbons with tetrahedral Co²⁺ ion complexes lodged in the zeolite skeleton is reported on the basis of diffuse reflectance spectra. While saturated hydrocarbons do not affect the coordination sphere of the Co-complex, the unsaturated hydrocarbons change considerably the distortion of the tetrahedral Co-complex.
