CuZnAl水滑石衍生催化剂上甲醇水蒸气重整制氢Ⅲ.合成水滑石用金属盐的影响

采用共沉淀法,用不同金属盐为Cu源和Zn源合成了一系列CuZnAl水滑石,以此为前体经600℃焙烧后制得相应催化剂.用硝酸盐和醋酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度高,其衍生催化剂比表面积大、Cu的分散性好且易于还原;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度差,其衍生催化剂比表面积小、Cu的分散性差且不易还原.反应评价结果显示,用硝酸盐和醋酸盐制得的催化剂活性高、反应稳定性好;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐制得的催化剂由于低的Cu表面积以及S和Cl的毒化作用而几乎无催化活性.在醋酸盐制备的催化剂上,产物干气中CO的浓度明显较低,在250℃和WHSV=3.28 h-1的条件下约为0.03%~0.04%,仅为硝酸盐所制催化剂上CO浓度的1/5;在210℃和WHSV=0.5 h-1的条件下,该催化剂上甲醇几乎完全转化,同时CO浓度降至约0.005%.N2O滴定、CO2程序升温脱附和程序升温还原结果显示,用醋酸盐和硝酸盐制备的催化剂具有极相近的Cu表面积和表面碱性,但前者CuO的还原峰温较后者低近70℃,归因于ZnO与CuO间的强相互作用,这是催化剂具有良好选择性的可能原因.     

二氧化钛纤维表面担载Pt纳米结构的原子力显微镜研究

通过原子力显微镜研究了二氧化钛纤维表面担载Pt的表面形貌及其结构.结果表明,TiO2纤维表面担载的Pt具有微米尺度的近似六边形或者近似长方形的结构,与在单晶TiO2(110)表面的Pt纳米簇形貌相似,但尺度较大.TiO2纤维担载的Pt表面明显存在不同高度的台阶结构,台阶高度以2~4倍Pt(111)晶面面间距的高度为主.由Pt在TiO2纤维表面的形貌与纤维的纳米晶粒排布有序性推测可知,Pt与TiO2纤维存在强的相互作用,可能正是这种强相互作用和表面台阶结构才使TiO2表面担载的Pt虽是微米尺寸但仍具有高光催化活性.

Sn/Al2O3催化剂结构与选择性催化还原NO性能

以不同沉淀剂和铝盐与SnCl4共沉淀制备了Sn/Al2O3催化剂.考察了催化剂在富氧条件下催化丙烯选择性还原NO的性能,借助于X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)、N2吸附-脱附、吡啶吸附红外光谱(Py-IR)和程序升温还原(TPR)等方法研究了催化剂性能与结构的关系.发现以NH3.H2O和NH4HCO3为沉淀剂、NH4Al(SO4)2为铝盐制备的Sn/Al2O3催化剂催化活性最高,NO转化率达90.9%,最佳催化活性温度为350℃.该催化剂的比表面积为254 m2/g,孔体积为0.878 cm3/g,孔径分布曲线在3~8 nm出现双峰,Sn物种主要以晶态SnO2存在,且表面Lewis酸酸量增加.     

BaF2/La2O3催化剂上甲烷氧化偶联反应活性氧物种的原位红外光谱

用原位红外光谱研究了BaF2/La2O3催化剂上甲烷氧化偶联反应的活性氧物种.结果表明,催化剂经O2预吸附后,在1 108~1 118 cm-1处出现超氧物种O2-的O-O键伸缩振动峰.经18O2同位素交换实验后,原1 108~1 118 cm-1处谱峰的强度减弱,同时在1 086和1 051 cm-1处出现(O18O)-物种和18O2-物种的吸收峰.同位素交换实验进一步确证了1 108~1 118cm-1处谱峰确为O2-物种的吸收峰.在700℃下,O2-物种能够活化CH4生成C2H4,而且O2-物种的消耗量和C2H4的生成量呈很好的消长对应关系.超氧物种O2-是BaF2/La2O3催化剂上甲烷氧化偶联反应的活性氧物种.

Preparation of high-surface-area zinc oxide with ordered porosity, different pore sizes, and nanocrystalline walls

Transition-metal-oxide materials possessing ordered mesoporosity have recently attracted significant research interest due to their numerous potential applications. Among them, ordered mesoporous zinc oxide (ZnO) is a very tempting material because of the importance of ZnO in heterogeneous catalysis. Here, first results of the preparation of ordered mesoporous ZnO materials by using different templates are reported. Porous materials with high surface area, different pore sizes, and nanocrystalline ZnO walls were obtained. Furthermore, we compare the two fundamental templating techniques, involving liquid crystals or ordered mesoporous carbon materials as templates. Regarding the formation of mesoporous ZnO, it was evident that the hard-matter carbon template is superior.     

Synthesis and characterization of LiCo<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Mn<Subscript>2−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>O<Subscript>4</Subscript> powder by a novel CAM microwave-assisted sol–gel method for Li ion battery

LiMn₂O₄-based spinels are of great interest as positive electrode materials for lithium ion batteries. LiCo _x Mn_2−x O₄ (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4) spinel phases have been synthesized by novel citric acid-modified microwave-assisted sol–gel method. The structural properties of the synthesized products have been investigated by X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. To improve the recharge capacity of Li/LiCo _x Mn_2−x O₄ cells, the electrochemical features of LiCo _x Mn_2−x O₄ compounds have been evaluated as positive electrode materials. The structural properties of Co-doped oxides are very similar to LiMn₂O₄ electrode. Techniques like cyclic voltammetry, charge–discharge and cycle life are also used to characterize the LiCo _x Mn_2−x O₄ (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4) electrodes.     

Theoretical analysis of the performance of a model supercapacitor consisting of metal oxide nano-particles

The factors influencing the electrochemical behaviour of a supercapacitor have been partly examined in this work. The effects of so-called intrinsic parameters, i.e. exchange current density, unit cell length and double layer (DL) capacitance; as well as the so-called application parameters, i.e. cell current, on the cell potential discharge time have been considered. The contributions of each type of capacitors, DL capacitor and faradaic supercapacitor under various states of operation and material have been analyzed, and the competing (compensating) effects of the two types of capacitors as regards to the discharge and power characteristics manifested by current–potential and energy–power (Ragone plots) are elucidated.     

Lanthanum nitrate decomposition by both temperature programmed heating and citrate gel combustion

Thermal decomposition of lanthanum nitrate to lanthanum oxide was carried out by both temperature programmed heating (TPH) and citrate-gel combustion. The temperature programmed heating was carried out under flow of oxidizing (air), neutral (nitrogen) and reducing (25 vol.% hydrogen+argone mixture) gases, and the processes were controlled by simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis. It was shown that hydrogen atmosphere helps to reduce temperatures of all decomposition steps. The results of TPH were utilized to check the nature of residues in the products of lanthanum nitrate-to-oxide conversion performed via citrate-gel combustion technique.
