On the initial treatment of kinetic data

The kinetic methods usually employed to determine reaction orders involve some sort of mathematical approximation and provide values approximate and very often discrepant. Three methods are reported to determine accurate reaction orders without introducing approximations.

Catalyst deactivation in toluene steam dealkylation

Two deactivation factors of Rh/-Al₂O₃ catalysts in toluene steam dealkylation are examined: deactivation during working and sulfur poisoning. Onstream deactivation is only due to coke deposit. Specific activity per free exposed fraction of the metal is constant. Sulfur is a strong non-selective poison which may hinder coke formation.

Ab initio investigation of the electron structure in bis-Cu+ acetylene and vinylidene complexes

[Cu(-C₂H₂)₂]⁺, [Cu(-CCH₂)₂]⁺ and [Cu(-C₂H₂) (-CCH₂]⁺ complexes have been studied by the ab initio double-zeta basis set method. It has been established that all calculated compounds are stable to decomposition into two C₂H₂ molecules and Cu⁺ cation and into one C₂H₂ molecules and the respective monocomplex. Calculation results suggest the possibility of intramolecular acetylene-vinylidene rearrangement in the coordination sphere of Cu⁺.

Acid-base properties of supported vanadium oxide catalyst

Reduction of V₂O₅/Al₂O₃ and V₂O₅/silica-alumina produced Lewis acid sites which could strongly adsorb CO (heat of adsorption: 90 kJ/mol). Such strong acid sites were not formed in the cases of V₂O₅/SiO₂ and V₂O₅/MgO. V₂O₅ loaded on Al₂O₃ interacted with the basic sites of alumina but not with the acidic sites, while the V₂O₅ on silica-alumina interacted with the acidic sites of the silica-alumina and decreased its acidity.

Trends in the high-temperature heat capacities of ternary chalcopyrite semiconductors

The anharmonic contribution to the heat capacity of any chalcopyrite semiconductor A^IB^IIIC ₂ ^VI or A^IIB^IVC ₂ ^V is evaluated. It is shown that the degree of lattice anharmonicity decreases with increasing atomic weight of the constituent atoms of the compounds, and there is no essential difference in the degree of lattice anharmonicity of the two groups of compounds. Except for CdGeAs₂, the trend in the Grüneisen constants is the same.

In situ laser thermal analysis of bulk materials

The application of thermal analysis techniques directly to the materials being processed could open up new opportunities in the fields of non-destructive testing and process monitoring on the industrial floor. In this paper, a convergent-thermal-wave technique is proposed for the measurement of thermal diffusivity when access to the material is restricted to one side only. Such a technique permits measurement of the thermal properties of samples of large or unknown thickness, as well as coated or stratified materials. A finite-difference numerical model is used to evaluate the possibilities and the accuracy offered by such a technique, and a laser-based experimental apparatus for the non-contact generation and monitoring of annular thermal waves is described.

Zusammenfassung Die direkte Anwendung thermischer Analysenverfahren auf darzustellende Materialien könnte neue Möglichkeiten auf dem Gebiet der nichtzerstörenden Materialprüfung und der industriellen Prozeßüberwachung bieten. In diesem Artikel wird eine Konvergenzthermowellen-Technik zur Messung des thermischen Diffusionsvermögens vorgeschlagen, die auch dann anwendbar ist, wenn das Material nur von einer Seite her zugänglich ist. Diese Technik ermöglicht die Messung thermischer Eigenschaften von Porben unbekannter Größe oder Dicke sowie die von belegten oder beschichteten Materialien. Ein numerisches endliches Differenz-Modell wird zur Bewertung der durch solch eine Technik gebotenen Möglichkeiten und deren Genauigkeit herangezogen. Eine auf Laser basierende Versuchsapparatur zur Nicht-Kontakt-Erzeugung und Aufzeichnung von ringförmigen thermischen Wellen wird beschrieben.

Possibility of thermal analysis of different types of bonding of water in minerals

Various types of water bonding were studied. e.g. water bound by occlusion, by adsorption, by capillary condensation, by chemisorption and as a solid solution, zeolitic water, interlayer water, crystal water and structural water bound in form of hydroxil groups. The differentiation of these various types of bonding is rather difficult, for on heating water is evolved at various temperatures and in rather wide temperature domains which overlap to different extents. Efforts were made to improve the detection by applying the quasi-isothermal quasi-isobaric measuring technique.

Zusammenfassung Es wurden verschiedene Bindungstypen von Wasser untersucht. Wasser kann unter anderem durch Einschlüsse, Adsorption. Kapillarkondensation, Chemisorption und in Form von Mischkristallen, zeolitisch, schichteingebettetem und Kristallwasser sowie als OH-Form gebunden sein. Die Untersuchung dieser zahlreichen Bindungstypen ist äußerst schwierig, da die Wasserabgabe bei verschiedenen Temperaturen geschieht und die ziemlich breiten Temperaturintervalle mehr oder weniger überlappen. Mittels quasiisothermen und quasiisobaren Meßtechniken wurde versucht, die Möglichkeit der Bestimmung zu verbessern.

Temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and H2O from NH4NaX and CoNH4NaX zeolites

A study has been made of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH₃ and H₂O from samples of NH₄X and CoNH₄X zeolites of various degree of exchange. NH₃ TPD peaks could be explained by interaction of NH₃ with different Brönsted and Lewis acidic centers. Moreover a water peak at high temperatures allowed interpretations of the dehydroxylation, and by reason of the characteristic desorption temperatures a particular state of the Co²⁺ ions in the CoNH₄X zeolites is postulated.

A solution of the problem of mass transfer in a turbulent boundary layer has been obtained with a first-order chemical reaction occurring in the liquid phase. The dependence of the enhancement factor for absorption and of the mass transfer coefficient on the model parameters can be used for building up a hierarchic model of the gas-liquid reactor.

Displacement of hydrogen from rhodium surface by carbon monoxide under conditions of pulsed-gas chromatography

Interaction of carbon monoxide with hydrogen on the surface of rhodium catalysts has been investigated under conditions of pulsed-gas chromatography within the temperature range of –80 to 500 °C. At temperatures up to about 180 °C adsorbed hydrogen was found to be displaced to the gaseous phase as a result of carbon oxide adsorption. At higher temperatures conversion of carbon monoxide and hydrogen to methane takes place.

Thermal conductivity measurements on samples with low cross-sections

A simple, low-cost apparatus has been designed and constructed for measurement of the thermal conductivities of samples with low cross-sections (10^–7 m²). This apparatus has been used to determine variations in the thermal conductivity of the metallic glass Fe₈₀B₂₀ (Metglas 2605) in the crystallization process induced by thermal treatment.In spite of the simplicity, the deviations from the real values of thermal conductivities measured have been lower than 8%, which has proved to be satisfactory for establishing the glass formation, temperature, T₈, from changes in thermal conductivity.

Self-oscillations in the rate of CO oxidation on Pt(110)

The surface of Pt(110) was found to be metastable under the reaction conditions. The necessary condition for the appearance of self-oscillations in the system is the change of platinum surface properties under the action of reaction medium. Self-oscillations in the rate are maintained due to reversibility of these changes.
