Impregnation concentration

The basic structure of the catalysts was not changed on the conditions of modification from the XRD patterns shown in Fig. 2. From the ICP analysis, it was observed that impregnated concentration of transition metals on the surface of Ti02 were consistent with leached solution concentration. 

The materials thus prepared were examined in an acid-catalyzed reaction-the cracking of cumene into benzene and propylene. The conversions of cumene into benzene at 250 °C over the catalysts with 1, 3, 5,10, and 20wt% W for the impregnated concentration are shown in Figure 17.10. The highest activities for 5%-,... 

Stationary phase S = silica gel G impregnated with 3% Primene JM-T So = silica gel impregnated with 5% Primene JM-T Sj = silica gel impregnated with 0.15% Primene JM-T. Mobile phase M, = 0.05 M citric acid M2 = 0.1 M citric acid, M, = 1.0 M citric acid. Conditions Ascending technique, layer thickness 0.5 mm, loading volume 5 /ul of 2.5% metal ion solution. Remarks Investigation of effects of eluent and impregnant concentrations on the Rf values of metal ions. An inverse correlation between Ry-values and the %E (E = extraction) of the metal ions is observed. S1-M2 is identified as the best system. 

Another method which should be cited apart from the others is to pyrolyze the sample in a hydrogen atmosphere. The sulfur is converted to H2S which darkens lead-acetate-impregnated paper. The speed of darkening, measured by an optical device, provides the concentration measurement. This method attains sensitivity thresholds of 0.02 ppm. 

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) provides the most satisfactory electrical insulation. Concentric rings of PTFE and PTFE impregnated with calcium fluoride are used for the packing glands which support the anode and cathode posts. Rubber is used as the gasket material to form a seal between the cover... 

Laminates. Laminate manufacture involves the impregnation of a web with a Hquid phenoHc resin in a dip-coating operation. Solvent type, resin concentration, and viscosity determine the degree of fiber penetration. The treated web is dried in an oven and the resin cures, sometimes to the B-stage (semicured). Final resin content is between 30 and 70%. The dry sheet is cut and stacked, ready for lamination. In the curing step, multilayers of laminate are stacked or laid up in a press and cured at 150—175°C for several hours. The resins are generally low molecular weight resoles, which have been neutralized with the salt removed. Common carrier solvents for the varnish include acetone, alcohol, and toluene. Alkylated phenols such as cresols improve flexibiUty and moisture resistance in the fused products.

Porosity and Pore Size. The support porosity is the volume of the support occupied by void space and usually is described in units of cm /g. This value represents the maximum amount of Hquid that may be absorbed into the pore stmcture, which is an especially important consideration for deposition of metal salts or other active materials on the support surface by Hquid impregnation techniques. The concentration of active material to be used in the impregnating solution is deterrnined by the support porosity and the desired level of active material loading on the catalyst. If the porosity is too low, inefficient use of the support material and reactor volume may result. If the porosity is too high, the support body may not contain sufficient soHd material to provide the strength necessary to survive catalyst manufacture and handling. 

Filter P per Processing. In the fabrication of fuel oil and air filters for vehicles such as motorcycles and diesel locomotives, heat processing of the filter paper is required to cure the resin (usually phenoHc) with which the paper (qv) is impregnated (see Phenolic resins). The cure-oven exhaust, which contains water vapor, alcohols, and dimers and trimers of phenol, produces a typical blue haze aerosol having a pungent odor. The concentration of organic substances in the exhaust is usually rather low. 

The paper-impregnation drying oven exhausts contain high concentrations (10—20% LEL) of alcohols and some resin monomer. Vinyl resins and melamine resins, which sometimes also contain organic phosphate fire retardants, may be used for air filters. The organic phosphates could shorten catalyst life depending on the mechanism of reduction of catalyst activity. Mild acid leaching removes iron and phosphoms from partially deactivated catalyst and has restored activity in at least one known case. 

Catalysis is utilized in the majority of new paper filter cure ovens as part of the oven recirculation/bumer system which is designed to keep the oven interior free of condensed resins and provide an exhaust without opacity or odor. The apphcation of catalytic fume control to the exhaust of paper-impregnation dryers permits a net fuel saving by oxidation of easy-to-bum methyl or isopropyl alcohol, or both, at adequate concentrations to achieve a 110—220°C exotherm. 

Distribution of Catalyst in Pores Because of the prac tical reqmrements of manufacturing, commercial impregnated catalysts usually have a higher concentration of ac tive ingredient near the outside than near the tip of the pores. This may not be harmful, because it seems that effectiveness sometimes is better with some kind of nonuni-form distribution of a given mass of catalyst. Such effects may be present in cases where the rate exhibits a maximum as a function of... 

Poly(vinyl chloride) is commercially available in the form of aqueous colloidal dispersions (latices). They are the uncoagulated products of emulsion polymerisation process and are used to coat or impregnate textiles and paper. The individual particles are somewhat less than 1 p,m in diameter. The latex may be coagulated by concentrated acids, polyvalent cations and by dehydration with water-miscible liquids.
