Temperature-programmed decomposition catalysts

The surface nethoxyl groups on the modified catalyst were measured by i.r. spectroscopy and their thermal stabilities were studied by Temperature-Programmed Decomposition (TPDE) in Ar. The surface acidity was measured by TPD of irreversibly adsorbed ammonia and by pyridine adsorption by dynamic method and i.r. spectroscopy. 0.10 g pretreated catalyst was used to measure the amount of irreversibly adsorbed pyridine. The irreversibly adsorbed ammonia was... 

Bimetallic catalysts can be prepared by a direct redox method when a cationic complex of a metal of higher electrochemical potential is reduced by another metal of lower electrochemical potential that has been deposited and reduced first187 (see Table 4.10) PdAu/SiO 88 and PdAu/C189 have been made in this way, gold being deposited after the palladium. Small amounts of the metals were found in filtrates, and XRD and temperature-programmed decomposition of palladium hydride indicated a substantial... 

The temperature programmed decomposition of the firesh and used Pd/SF-1173 catalyst indicated the presence of two PdO species on the catalyst surface. A single 02-evolution peak with maximum at 903 K took place from the fi-esh catalyst, whereas, on the aged catalyst two 02-evolution peaks with maxims at 948 K and 1053 K were observed. Similar twin 02-evolution peaks are also observed from alinnina supported Pd-catalysts [7]. The 02-evolution peak at lower temperatures is originating from the decottq>osition of crystalline palladium oxide, while the higher teitq)erature peak is due to the decomposition of the amorphous PdO. A comparison of the performances of the knitted silica-fiber catalysts with those over... 

Hexacarbonyl molybdenum Mo(CO)6 was successfully used to prepare intrazeolite molybdenum sulfide clusters in the cavities of NaY (CVD technique) [4,5,7,8]. The decomposition and sulfidation of Mo(CO)e encaged in NaY were extensively studied by Okamoto et al. [7-11] by means of temperature programmed decomposition (TPDE), XPS, and XAFS techniques. It has been claimed that the structure of molybdenum sulfides is described as molybdenum dinuclear sulfide clusters M02S4. de Bont et al. [12] supported the formation of molybdenum sulfide dimer species. The extremely high dispersion of molybdenum sulfide clusters prepared fi"om Mo(CO)6 was also suggested by an NO adsorption capacity much hi er than those of other conventional catalyst systems such as M0S2/AI2O3 [9]. 

Cobalt, Rhodium and Iridium. - This group is justifiably recognised for its catalytic prowess and a number of papers each year are targeted at using Co, Rh or Ir carbonyls as catalysts for some reaction or other. Often, papers deal with the simple carbonyls themselves, such as that by Kurhinen and Pakkanen examining the temperature-programmed decomposition, oxidation, and reduc-... 

For this purpose we studied a temperature-programmed interaction of CH with a-oxygen. Experiments were carried out in a static setup with FeZSM-5 zeolite catalyst containing 0.80 wt % Fe203. The setup was equipped with an on-line mass-spectrometer and a microreactor which can be easily isolated from the rest part of the reaction volume. The sample pretreatment procedure was as follows. After heating in dioxygen at 823 K FeZSM-5 cooled down to 523 K. At this temperature, N2O decomposition was performed at 108 Pa to provide the a-oxygen deposition on the surface. After evacuation, the reactor was cooled down to the room temperature, and CH4 was fed into the reaction volume at 108 Pa. 

Spectroscopic developments have accelerated advances in the field of catalysis. This volume analyzes the impact on catalyst structure and reactivity of EXAFS, SIMS, MSssbauer, magic-angle spinning NMR (MASNMR), and electron-energy-loss vibrational spectroscopy. Many of these techniques are combined with other analytical tools such as thermal decomposition and temperature-programmed reactions. 

In this paper selectivity in partial oxidation reactions is related to the manner in which hydrocarbon intermediates (R) are bound to surface metal centers on oxides. When the bonding is through oxygen atoms (M-O-R) selective oxidation products are favored, and when the bonding is directly between metal and hydrocarbon (M-R), total oxidation is preferred. Results are presented for two redox systems ethane oxidation on supported vanadium oxide and propylene oxidation on supported molybdenum oxide. The catalysts and adsorbates are stuped by laser Raman spectroscopy, reaction kinetics, and temperature-programmed reaction. Thermochemical calculations confirm that the M-R intermediates are more stable than the M-O-R intermediates. The longer surface residence time of the M-R complexes, coupled to their lack of ready decomposition pathways, is responsible for their total oxidation. 

Co. surface area = 300 m2/g ) with aqueous solutions of Cu, Cr, Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba in Nitrate. All the catalysts have Cu to Si02 weight ratio of 14/86. For promoted catalyst, the Cr to Cu molar ratio was varied from 1/4 0 to 1/4, and the alkaline earth metal to Cu molar ratio was kept at 1/10. The impregnated catalysts were dried at 100 °C overnight, calcined at 450 for 3 h and then reduced in a stream of 10% H2 in Ar at 300 °C for 2 h. The copper surface areas of catalysts were determined by the N20 decomposition method described elsewhere [4-5J. The basic properties of the catalysts were determined by temperature-programmed desorption ( TPD ) of adsorbed carbon dioxide. Ethanol was used as reactant for dehydrogenation reaction which was performed in a microreactor at 300°C and 1 atm. 

When the poisoned catalysts are subjected to heat (c.g 773 K) in air, MS will change into S(VI) or S(IV) (or S02)t but the original S(VI) in the catalysts is essentially unchanged (Fig.4) As the temperature rises to ca 973 K, the decomposition of aluminium sulfate hydrate will lake place. When poisoned catalysts undergo a temperature programmed... 

Since zeolites are typical acid-base catalysts, their acid-base properties are of great importance in investigating the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons. Three methods — titration, temperature-programmed desorption, and characterization by test reaction — are employed to measure acid-base properties. In this study, n-hexane was used as a model hydrocarbon and its decomposition over HY, HCeY, HSmY, and HCuY zeolites was investigated. Depending on the metal exchanged, n-hexane conversion and product distribution were observed to vary in the higher ccmversion r ion. The relation between product distribution and the acid-base properties of the zeolites are discussed. 

The CO-H2 synthesis properties of metal/titania catalysts have been found in several studies to be essentially unaffected by the temperature of reduction, in contrast to the strong effect this factor has on chemisorption properties. This problem has focused attention on the special nature of the metal-titania contact perimeter. Reduction of titania, undoubtedly through hydrogen spillover, begins there. It is important to note that Ti J+ cations are produced by reduction temperatures as low as 473K, as shown by 02 adsorption/H20 decomposition measurements (36) or by temperature programmed reduction. In the latter study, the amount of-TiJ+ produced at temperatures below 503K was equivalent to a TiJ+/Pt atom ratio of 0.6 (37).
