Electrocatalytic effect of phenanthroline iron complexes on oxygen reduction in sulfuric acid media

The study of oxygen reduction on a platinum rotating disk was performed at different pHs in 1 M H₂SO₄. An increase in the velocity of this reaction with the addition of 2×10^–3M Fe(II) and 0.1 M 1,10-phenanthroline was observed. This increase depends on the solution pH, i.e. at pH<0.5, it is about 100-fold, whereas for pH>0.5, it is greater than by a factor of 600. This change at pH=0.5 can be explained by a change in the coordination sphere of electrogenerated Fe(II). The complex species Fe(II)–SO₄ at pH<0.5 changes to [Fephen₃]²⁺ at pH>0.5.

Reactions between ammonium sulphate and metal oxides (metal=Cr,Mn and Fe) and thermal decomposition of the products

The reactions between ammonium sulphate and three metal oxides (Cr₂O₃, MnO₂ and Fe₂O₃) were studied. It was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis that stable reaction intermediates were formed consecutively in the course of the reactions.These were (NH₄)₃M(SO₄)₃ and NH₄M(SO₄)₂ for Cr₂O₃ and Fe₂O₃ and (NH₄)₂Mn₂(SO₄)₃ for MnO₂. The thermal decompositions of these intermediates and of the metal sulphates were carried out. The contracting-volume equation was valid for the decomposition of all the intermediates. The Arrhenius parameters were determined.

Durch Röntgendiffraktion und chemische Analyse wurde bestätigt, dass im Verlaufe der Reaktion stabile Zwischenprodukte gebildet werden. Es handelt sich dabei um (NH₄)₃M(SO₄)₃ und NH₄M(SO₄)₂ im Falle von Cr₂O₃ und Fe₂O₃ und um (NH₄)₂Mn₂(SO₄)₃ im Falle von MnO₂. Diese Zwischenprodukte und die Metallsulfate wurden thermisch zersetzt. Die Volumenkontraktionsgleichung war für die Zersetzung all dieser Zwischenprodukte gültig. Die Arrheniusparameter wurden bestimmt.

Characterization of silica supported PtFe catalysts by M?ssbauer spectroscopy

Mössbauer spectroscopy has been used to characterize silica supported PtFe bimetallic system with different iron loads. The partial reversibility in room temperature oxidation-reduction and the IS indicate direct PtFe contact on the support. At higher iron loads the Fe dispersity is increased and part of iron cannot be reduced, indicating the presence of non-alloyed iron.

Sorption of H2, O2 and CO on bimetallic catalysts Pd?Ag/Al2O3 over a wide temperature range

Adsorption of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon monoxide on Pd–Ag/Al₂O₃ catalysts of different compositions within the temperature range from 293 to 773 K has been investigated. Adsorption measurements have been carried out by the pulse chromatographic method. The results obtained reflect interactions of the above adsorbates with the alloy surface, strongly enriched in silver atoms, as a result of surface segregation processes.

Isomerization and secondary metathesis of 2-butenes over a MoO3/Al2O3 catalyst

Transformation of cis- and trans-2-butene at 40°C was investigated over a MoO₃/A₂O₃ catalyst reduced with hydrogen and subjected to different pretreatments. Isomerization is accelerated by hydrogen preadsorbed either at low or high temperatures. The cometathesis of 2-butenes with the 1-butene intermediate, however, is enhanced only by hydrogen preadsorbed at low and suppressed by hydrogen adsorbed at high temperatures.

ESR studies of the state of Ti3+ and Ti2+ in Ti?Mg catalysts for olefin polymerization

ESR studies have revealed that in Ti–Mg catalysts after interaction with organoaluminium compounds, the Ti³⁺ ions formed are present mainly as TiCl₃ associates. Isolated Ti³⁺ ions of various types are also detected. Part of titanium ions is in the divalent state and provides an ESR signal after oxidation by water to the trivalent state in the form of Ti³⁺ ordered by cooperative Jahn-Teller interaction.

Mechanism of o-xylene conversion on magnesium modifications of Y zeolite

o-Xylene conversions has been investigated in the presence of MgNaY zeolites with different Si/Al ratios and degrees of exchange. Disproportionation proceeds to a higher degree than does isomerization. The distribution of reaction products is attributed to geometric factors. The results are in agreement with a monomolecular mechanism of isomerization.
