Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: to the Fundamental and Applied Catalysis Series Catalysis is important academically and industrially. It plays an essential role in the manufacture of a wide range of products, from gasoline and plastics to fertilizers and herbicides, which would otherwise be unobtainable or prohibitive ly expensive. There are few chemical-or oil-based material items in modern society that do not depend in some way on a catalytic stage in their manufacture. Apart from manufacturing processes, catalysis is finding other important and over-increasing uses; for example, successful applications of catalysis in the control ofpollution and its use in environmental control are certain to in crease in the future. The commercial import an ce of catalysis and the diverse intellectual challenges of catalytic phenomena have stimulated study by a broad spectrum of scientists including chemists, physicists, chemical engineers, and material scientists. Increasing research activity over the years has brought deeper levels of understanding, and these have been associated with a continually growing amount of published material. As recentlyas sixty years ago, Rideal and Taylor could still treat the subject comprehensively in a single volume, but by the 19 50s Emmett required six volumes, and no conventional multivolume text could now cover the whole of catalysis in any depth.

Book Characterization of Catalytic Materials

Download or read book Characterization of Catalytic Materials written by Israel E. Wachs and published by Momentum Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heterogeneous catalysis has undergone a revolutionary change in the past two decades due to the development of sophisticated characterization methods that provide fundamental information about the catalyst bulk structures, surfaces, and their properties. For the first time, these characterization methods have allowed researchers to "see" the surfaces of catalytic materials, their bulk structures (crystalline as well as amorphous phases), the influence of the process conditions on the catalytic material, as well as the effect of different synthesis methods. This new information has tremendously advanced our understanding of catalytic materials and their properties. These characterization methods have become our "eyes" and are indispensible in the development of new catalytic materials. It is hard to conceive of a modern heterogeneous catalysis activity, be it research or manufacturing, without the aid of these new characterization techniques.

Book Molecular Spectroscopy of Oxide Catalyst Surfaces

Download or read book Molecular Spectroscopy of Oxide Catalyst Surfaces written by Anatoli Davydov and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-06-27 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As in the study of transition metal complexes in solution, molecular spectroscopic methods - principally the infrared, ultraviolet/visible and electron spin resonance spectroscopies - have played key roles in establishing the concepts of coordination chemistry occurring at the surfaces of solids. This book describes the development of the principals of coordination chemistry of oxide surfaces using analyses of data obtained by these methods. The nature, properties, concentration of the surface adsorption centers and their influence on the character of interaction with different molecules are investigated. The book commences with an account of the basic theoretical principles and experimental techniques of the various spectroscopy methods, with special attention devoted to in situ measurements where the oxide or catalyst sample is in contact with the adsorbate or the reactant. A detailed account is presented of the methods for characterizing the oxidation state and degree of coordination of surface cations and oxygen anions by the adsorption of probe molecules. The complexation of many inorganic, organometallic and organic molecules with different oxide systems is critically examined, and a classification of formed surface compounds, based on the interaction with definite type of adsorption centers, is given. Possible mechanisms of numerous catalytic reactions, including the transformation of organic molecules over acidic catalysts via the carboionic mechanism, are discussed using the spectroscopic identifications of reaction intermediates. A comprehensive analysis of the literature on the interpretation of the spectra of surface compounds on oxides is presented. This highly illustrated and extensively referenced volume is intended for specialists working in the fields of surface physical chemistry, surface and materials sciences, and adsorption phenomena and is essential reading for those involved in the heterogeneous catalysis by transition metal-oxides.

Book Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Ions on Surfaces

Download or read book Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Ions on Surfaces written by Bert M. Weckhuysen and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical industries are based on catalytic processes as both bulk and fine chemicals are often produced with heterogeneous catalysts. Transition metal ions dispersed on high-surface area inorganic solids are very important catalysts and a full characterization of these materials requires a profound knowledge of the oxidation state, coordination environment and dispersion of the metal ions on the catalyst surface. Such information can only be obtained by using a combination of complementary spectroscopic techniques. 'Spectroscopy of Transition metal ions on Surfaces' serves as an introduction to some of the most important spectroscopic techniques nowadays used for studying the chemistry and catalytic properties of transition metal ions on surfaces. The basic principles and the strengths and weaknesses of continuous wave electron spin resonance, pulsed electron spin resonance, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are critically reviewed by internationally recognized experts. This gives the reader a solid background for judging literature results and for planning and conducting his/her own experiments. Each chapter closes with several relevant examples mainly from the recent literature. In addition, the use of in situ techniques and chemometrical techniques has been included because of its growing importance in catalyst characterization. As a consequence, the book has been written as a text not only for graduate students, but also for anyone else who is new in the field and wants a recent update. The following scientists have contributed to this textbook: Br.

Book Studies in Molybdenum Oxide Catalysts

Download or read book Studies in Molybdenum Oxide Catalysts written by David Earl Huffman and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cocondensation reactions of molybdenum trioxide vapor with tetraalkoxysilanes, trimethylalkoxysilanes, and hexamethyldisiloxane at -196°C were investigated. The products from the metal vapor reactions of tetramethoxysilane, tetraethoxysilane, and tetrapropoxysilane were characterized as molybdenum(VI)dioxodialkoxy compounds. The isolated compounds were found to be polymeric in the solid state by bridging through alkoxide groups. Metal vapor reaction of trimethylmethoxysilane gave an inseparable mixture of molybdenum(VI)alkoxysiloxy compounds which were also polymeric in nature. The metal vapor reactions of tetra-2-butoxysilane and trimethyl-t-butoxysilane gave butenes as a primary organic product and an uncharacterized blue molybdenum-containing solid. All products isolated in this study were sensitive to atmospheric moisture and light. The molybdenumdioxoalkoxy and molybdenumdioxoalkoxysiloxy compounds are good model compounds for the oxidation of alcohols. Decomposition studies of Mo(0)2(OMe)2 and Mo(0)2(OMe)x(OSiMe3)y yielded oxidation products of methanol, including dimethylether, formaldehyde, methyl formate, and dimethoxymethane. The reactivity of Mo(0)2(OEt)2 towards acidic protons was used to attach the molybdenum(VI)dioxo group to the surface of alumina (Al203), silica (Si02), titania (Ti02), zirconia (Zr02), and HY-zeolite. Chemical analysis and infrared spectroscopic studies indicate that dioxomolybdenum is attached to the support through bridging oxides between the support metal and molybdenum. The +2, +4, and +6 oxidation states of the surface attached molybdenum could be accessed by oxidation or reduction with 02 or H2, respectively. A survey of the catalytic nature for oxidation, metathesis, and Fischer- Tropsch synthesis of the supported molybdenum compounds in appropriate oxidation states was made. Dramatic differences in the activity and selectivity for oxidation of alcohols were observed depending on the support used. The Ti02 supported Mo(VI) showed the highest activity and selectivity for the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde. The A1203 supported Mo(IV) system was the most active catalyst for propylene metathesis with the Si02 supported Mo(IV) system showing much less activity.

Download or read book The Spectroscopic and Structural Characterization of Chlorine Modification of MoOx Catalysts Supported Over Silica titania Mixed Oxides for the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Ethane and Propane written by Chang Liu and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In this study, the use of molybdenum catalysts supported over silica-titania mixed-oxides has been investigated in regard to their activity for the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethane and propane. The incorporation of chlorine was able to improve the ethylene and propylene formation rates up to Cl/Mo=2.0. The effect of chlorine dopants on the catalyst surface characteristics and, in turn, on the catalytic performance in ethane and propane ODH has been examined. The catalysts used in this study have been synthesized by a modified "one-pot" sol gel/co-precipitation technique. The main focus of the work has been characterization of the surface molybdena species, physical-chemical properties of the Si:Ti support, reducibility, adsorption/desorption behavior, and surface intermediates present during the reaction. Catalysts were characterized by physical adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), laser Raman spectroscopy (LSR), diffuse reflectance infrared fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), temperature programmed desorption/reaction (TPD/TPrxn), electron spin resonance (ESR), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), and steady-state isotopic transient kinetic analyses (SSITKAS). The characterization results are correlated to the catalytic performance to achieve a better understanding of chlorine-modified catalysts.
