ZnSO4和La2O3作共修饰剂单金属Ru催化剂上苯选择加氢制环己烯

用沉淀法制备了单金属纳米Ru（0）催化剂,考察了ZnSO₄和La₂O₃作共修饰剂对该催化剂催化苯选择加氢制环己烯性能的影响,并用X射线衍射（XRD）、X射线荧光（XRF）光谱、X射线光电子能谱（XPS）、俄歇电子能谱（AES）、透射电镜（TEM）和N₂物理吸附等手段对加氢前后催化剂进行了表征. 结果表明,在ZnSO₄存在下,随着添加碱性La₂O₃量的增加,ZnSO₄水解生成的（Zn（OH）₂）₃（ZnSO₄）（H₂O）_x（x=1,3）盐量增加,催化剂活性单调降低,环己烯选择性单调升高. 当La₂O₃/Ru 物质的量比为0.075 时,Ru催化剂上苯转化率为77.6%,环己烯选择性和收率分别为75.2%和58.4%. 且该催化体系具有良好的重复使用性能. 传质计算结果表明,苯、环己烯和氢气的液-固扩散限制和孔内扩散限制都可忽略. 因此,高环己烯选择性和收率的获得不能简单归结为物理效应,而与催化剂的结构和催化体系密切相关. 根据实验结果,我们推测在化学吸附有（Zn（OH）₂）₃（ZnSO₄）（H₂O）_x（x=1,3）盐的Ru（0）催化剂有两种活化苯的活性位：Ru⁰和Zn²⁺. 因为Zn²⁺将部分电子转移给了Ru,Zn²⁺活化苯的能力比Ru⁰弱. 同时由于Ru和Zn²⁺的原子半径接近,Zn²⁺可以覆盖一部分Ru⁰活性位,导致解离H₂的Ru⁰活性位减少. 这导致了Zn²⁺上活化的苯只能加氢生成环己烯和Ru（0）催化剂活性的降低. 本文利用双活性位模型来解释Ru基催化剂上的苯加氢反应,并用Hückel分子轨道理论说明了该模型的合理性.     

Perovskites as Precursors for Ni/La2O3 Catalysts in the Dry Reforming of Methane: Synthesis by Constant pH Co‐Precipitation,Reduction Mechanism and Effect of Ru‐Doping

LaNiO₃ perovskite is an interesting precursor for Ni/La₂O₃ catalysts for the dry reforming of methane at high temperatures. Precursors have been synthesized by co‐precipitation without, with 2.5 at %, and with 5 at % Ru doping. The presence of Ru leads to a stabilization of the perovskite structure and hinders the decomposition into NiO and Ruddlesden‐Popper mixed oxides La_n+1Ni_nO_3n+1, which was observed for the Ru‐free sample upon calcination at 1000 °C (n = 3). Upon reduction in hydrogen, a mechanism involving at least two steps was observed and the first major step was identified as the partial reduction of the precursor leading to a LaNiO_2.5‐like intermediate. The second major step is the reduction to Ni metal supported on La₂O₃ independent of the Ru content of the catalyst. In the presence of Ru, indications for Ni‐Ru alloy formation and for a higher dispersion of the metallic phase were found. The catalytic activity in DRM of the catalyst containing 2.5 % Ru was superior to the catalysts with more or without Ru. Furthermore, the propensity of coke formation was reduced by the presence of Ru.     

Effect of cation doping on ionic and electronic properties for lanthanum silicate-based solid electrolytes

Electronic as well as ionic conducting properties for oxyapatite-type solid electrolytes based on lanthanum silicate, La_9.333 + xSi₆O_26 + 1.5x (LSO) were investigated in the oxygen-excess region (x > ca. 0.3). We have found that the oxygen excess-type LSO (OE-LSO), namely La₁₀Si₆O₂₇ on weighted basis, exhibited high conductivity, and substitution of the Si-site of LSO with some dopants (Mⁿ⁺) had a positive effect toward the conducting property. Furthermore, it was also found that addition of a very small amount of iron ions into the M-doped OE-LSO, La₁₀(Si_6-yMⁿ⁺_y)O_27-(2-0.5n)y, improved its conductivity. On the other hand, replacement of the La-site with various ions for La₁₀(Si_6-yMⁿ⁺_y)O_27-(2-0.5n)y did little to improve conductivity. The electronic transport numbers for Al-doped OE-LSO with Fe-addition, (1-α){La₁₀(Si_5.8Al_0.2)O_26.9}-α(FeO_γ), evaluated with the Hebb-Wagner polarization method were very low: i.e., 1.1 × 10^− 3 and 2.9 × 10^− 3 under P(O₂) = 1.1 × 10⁴ Pa at 1073 K for α = 0.00 and 0.005, respectively. Conductivity for each sample was unchanged under humidified atmosphere at 1073 K sustained for over 50 h, revealing that both compositions were chemically stable. It was concluded that 0.995{La₁₀(Si_5.8Al_0.2)O_26.9}-0.005(FeO_γ) is suitable for the fuel cell electrolytes because of its high and almost pure ionic conductivity, and its good chemical stability under humidified as well as reducing conditions.

Oxygen ion conductivity of Lao.sSro.2Gao.s3Mgo.17-xCoxO3-δ synthesized by laser rapid solidification

Materials Lao.8Sro.2Gao.83Mgo.17_xCox03_6 with x = 0, 0.05, 0.085, 0.10, and 0.15 are synthesized by laser rapid solidification. It is shown that the samples prepared by laser rapid solidification give rise to unique spear-like or leaf-like microstructures which are orderly arranged and densely packed. Their electrical properties each show a general depen dence of the Co content and the total conductivities of Lao.8Sro.2Gao.83Mgo.085Coo.08503_6 prepared by laser rapid solidification are measured to be 0.067, 0.124, and 0.202 S.cm-1 at 600, 700, and 800 ℃, respectively, which are much higher than by conventional solid state reactions. Moreover, the electrical conductivities each as a function of the oxy gen partial pressure are also measured. It is shown that the samples with the Co content values 〈 8.5 mol% each exhibit basically ionic conduction while those for Co content values 〉 10 mol % each show ionic mixed electronic conduction under oxygen partial pressures from 10-16 atm （1 atm = 1.01325 x 105 Pa） to 0.98 atm. The improved ionic conductivity of Lao.sSro.2Gao.83Mgo.085Coo.08503 prepared by laser rapid solidification compared with by solid state reactions is attributed to the unique microstructure of the sample generated during laser rapid solidification.     

Influence of processing variables on the formation of La2Zr2O7 in transferred arc plasma torch processing

The transferred arc plasma (TAP) torch process has various noteworthy features such as extremely high temperatures, low environmental impact and short processing time which makes it the most suitable technique for synthesizing ceramic composite materials. Furthermore, it is a direct two-step technique which by its virtue of high temperature and power density paves way for high production rate. Hence in this study, an effort has been made to utilize the TAP torch processing technique for the bulk production of La₂Zr₂O₇ with time effectiveness from the mixture of La₂O₃ and ZrO₂ powders (1:2 mol ratios) which were ball milled for 4 h. For this purpose, transferred arc plasma torch was specially designed in laboratory scale level and the operating parameters were optimized in order to achieve maximum La₂Zr₂O₇ formation efficiency. In this study, the phase and microstructure formation of the processed samples was analyzed via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images respectively. Moreover, EDX analysis was incorporated to highlight the superior influence of the longer processing time on the stoichiometric ratio of ZrO₂/La₂O₃ in the processed sample as against input power and the gas flow rate.     

Dielectric behaviour of La substituted BPZT ceramics

Here, we report dielectric behaviour of lanthanum substituted Ba_0.80Pb_0.20Ti_0.90Zr_0.10O₃ (BPZT) ceramics. The material series with compositional formula Ba_0.80−xLa_xPb_0.20Ti_0.90Zr_0.10O₃ (BLPZT) with x varying from 0 to 0.01 in the steps of 0.0025 was chosen for investigations. The material was synthesized by solid state reaction method. Reacted powder compacted in form of circular discs were sintered at 1325 °C. All the samples were subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and found to be single phase. Dielectric behaviour was studied as a function of frequency and temperature and Curie temperature (T_c) was determined. T_c was found to decrease with increasing x. The details are discussed and presented in this paper.     

NMR spectroscopic characterization of inclusion complexes comprising cyclodextrins and gallated catechins in aqueous solution: cavity size dependency

The structure of inclusion complexes of γ‐cyclodextrin (γ‐CD), (–)‐gallocatechin gallate (GCg), and (–)‐epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) in D₂O was investigated using several NMR techniques. GCg formed a 1:1 inclusion complex with γ‐CD in which the A and C rings of GCg were inserted deep at the head of the A ring into the γ‐CD cavity from the wide secondary hydroxyl group side. In the 1:1 inclusion complex with GCg and γ‐CD, the GCg moiety maintained a conformation in which the B and B′ rings of GCg took both pseudoequatorial positions with respect to the C ring. The structure of the inclusion complex of GCg and γ‐CD obtained from NMR experiments supported well that determined from PM6 semiempirical SCF MO calculations. However, ¹H NMR experiments suggested that EGCg did not form any inclusion complex with γ‐CD in D₂O. The marked difference between GCg and EGCg in inclusion behavior toward γ‐CD may be explained in terms of the stabilization energy calculated with the PM6 method.

Effects of alkyl chain lengths of gallates upon their distribution and reactivity towards diphenylpicryl hydracil radicals in Triton X‐100 micellar solutions

The reactivity of ethyl‐, propyl‐ and octylgallate towards diphenylpicryl hydracil radicals has been measured in homogeneous solution (ethanol) and in Triton X‐100 micellar solutions. Similar reactivities were measured in homogeneous solutions, indicating that the length of the alkyl chain does not influence the reactivity of the phenolic groups. On the other hand, different reactivities were measured in micellar solutions, particularly at low (5 mM) surfactant concentrations. Data obtained at different surfactant concentrations allow estimation of partitioning of the gallates and their intramicellar bimolecular rate constant. The values obtained indicate that all the observed differences in reactivity are attributable to differences in substrate partitioning between the micellar and aqueous pseudophases. In fact, similar values of the intramicellar rate constants were obtained, suggesting that the average location of the reactive groups inside the micelles is independent of the solute alkyl chain length.

Multiple-magnetic field 139La NMR and density functional theory investigation of the solid lanthanum(III) halides

Results from a solid-state ¹³⁹La NMR spectroscopic investigation of the anhydrous lanthanum(III) halides (LaX₃; X=F, Cl, Br, I) at applied magnetic fields of 7.0, 9.4, 11.7, 14.1, and 17.6 T are presented and highlight the advantages of working at high applied magnetic field strengths. The ¹³⁹La quadrupolar coupling constants are found to range from 15.55 to 24.0 MHz for LaCl₃ and LaI₃, respectively. The lanthanum isotropic chemical shifts exhibit an inverse halogen dependence with values ranging from −135 ppm for LaF₃ to 700 ppm for LaI₃, which represents nearly half of the total lanthanum chemical shift range. The spans of the magnetic shielding tensors also vary widely, from 35 to 650 ppm for the solid LaF₃ through LaI₃. DFT calculations of the ¹³⁹La electric field gradient and magnetic shielding tensors have been performed and provide a qualitative interpretation of the trends observed experimentally.
