Book Heterogeneous Catalysis of Mixed Oxides

Download or read book Heterogeneous Catalysis of Mixed Oxides written by Makoto Misono and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chemistry of metal oxides, both single and mixed metal oxides, relevant to heterogeneous catalysis such as relationships among the composition, structure, and chemical properties of mixed oxides, is provided in perspective. The important chemical properties in heterogeneous catalysis are acid–base and reduction–oxidation (redox) properties, where ionic radii, electronegativity, valency, and tendency to form covalent bond of constituent elements are most influential. Structural factors such as lattice defects and nonstoichiometry are also relevant. Although the surface of metal oxides is different from the solid bulk and changes depending on various factors, the surface reflects more or less the solid bulk and the knowledge of bulk properties is useful to understand the catalysis of mixed oxides. In some cases, the solid bulk actually takes part in catalysis. Other fundamental features of metal oxide catalysis like synergistic effects of more than two different active sites (acid and base, acid and oxidation, etc.) are also discussed.

Book Molecular Structure reactivity Relationships for Propane Oxidation Over Model Mixed Oxide Catalysts

Download or read book Molecular Structure reactivity Relationships for Propane Oxidation Over Model Mixed Oxide Catalysts written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed Mo-V-Sb-Nb and Mo-V-Te-Nb oxides were recently discovered as highly active and selective catalysts for the propane oxidation to propylene and oxygenates, i.e. acrolein and acrylic acid. Fundamental information is needed for understanding the bulk and surface molecular structure-activity/selectivity relationships and providing rules of rational design of improved mixed metal oxide catalysts for the selective oxidation of propane. The phase composition and catalytic activity of the model Mo-V-Sb-Nb-O system strongly depended on the synthesis route and composition. A number of distinct solid-state phases were observed in this system: Mo6V9O40, MoO3, rutile SbVO4 and the defect "Mo-V-Nb-O" phases. The kinetic studies indicated that the high selectivity to acrylic acid (2̃0 mol.%) was associated with the Mo6V9O40 and the defect "Mo-V-Nb-O" phases. The synthesis of these mixed Mo-V-Sb-Nb-O system was performed using combinatorial chemistry techniques to explore the utility of liquid phase automated synthesis for the reproducible preparation of these catalysts. This study indicated good reproducibility of phase compositions and catalytic properties and provided new insights into the transformation processes that occur in these oxides with time on stream. It was discovered in this research that the model mixed Mo-V-Te-O catalyst represents a simple model system for elucidating the molecular structure-activity/selectivity relationships in propane selective oxidation. This catalyst contains the two major crystalline phases proposed as active and selective for propane oxidation. This research elucidated the effect of the chemical composition, solution pH and thermal treatment on phase composition and catalytic performance. High resolution TEM study established the crystal structures of the hexagonal and orthorhombic phases in terms of their space groups, unit cell parameters, atomic coordinates and elemental compositions. In order to understand the role of the structure, morphology and composition of mixed Mo-V-Te-Nb-O system, novel synthesis approaches employing ordered arrays of colloidal polystyrene spheres (0.4 ưm) were successfully developed. These novel nanocrystalline catalysts with surface areas in the 80-110 m2/g range consisted of 20-50 nm particles of desirable catalytic phases and contained 6-20 nm pores. Kinetic studies demonstrated the acrylic acid yields exceeding 40 mol.% and approaching the commercial targets for the selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid.

Book Adsorption and Catalysis on Transition Metals and Their Oxides

Download or read book Adsorption and Catalysis on Transition Metals and Their Oxides written by Vsevolod F. Kiselev and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with adsorption and catalysis on the surface of transition elements and their compounds, many of which are in teresting because of their particular electronic structure. The authors have worked through a vast body of experimental evi dence on the structure and properties of surfaces of transition metals and relevant oxides. Consideration is given mostly to simple (as opposed to mixed) oxides of transition elements, to common metals and to the adsorption of simple gases. A great deal of attention is paid to the nature of active surface sites responsible for chemisorption and catalytic transformations. The description relies mainly on the simplified ligand-field theory, which, however, proves quite satisfactory for predicting the adsorptive and catalytic activity of species. In many cases simple systems were explored with the aid of novel techniques, and it is only for such systems that the mechanism of the ele mentary act of adsorption and catalysis can be given adequate treatment. The present monograph has emerged from our earlier work in Russian, which appeared in the Khimiya Publishing House (Mos cow) in 1981. This English edition has, however, been revised completely to broaden its scope and to include more recent a chievements. For fruitful discussions the authors are grateful to A.A.

Book Correlations Between Surface Structure and Catalytic Activity

Download or read book Correlations Between Surface Structure and Catalytic Activity written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objective is to address the keys to understanding the relation between surface structure and catalytic activity/selectivity. Of concern are questions related to enhanced catalytic properties of mixed-metal catalysts and critical active site requirements for molecular synthesis and rearrangement. The experimental approach utilizes a microcatalytic reactor contiguous to a surface analysis system, an arrangement which allows in vacuo transfer of the catalyst from one chamber to the other. Surface techniques being used include Auger (AES), UV and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (UPS and XPS), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), low energy electron diffraction (LEED), high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) and infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRAS). Our research program builds upon our previous experience relating the results of single crystal kinetic measurements with the results obtained with supported analogs. As well we are exploiting our recent work on the preparation, the characterization, and the determination of the catalytic properties of ultra-thin metal and metal oxide films. The program is proceeding toward the study of the unique catalytic properties of ultrathin metal films; the investigation of the critical ensemble size requirements for principal catalytic reaction types; and the modelling of supported catalysts using ultra-thin planar oxide surfaces.

Book One dimensional  1 D  Nanostructured Metal Oxides for Catalytic Oxidation of Hydrocarbons

Download or read book One dimensional 1 D Nanostructured Metal Oxides for Catalytic Oxidation of Hydrocarbons written by Yunzhe Feng and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbons has been intensively studied, with the purpose of minimizing emissions of pollutants and facilitating the combustion process. Noble metals, such as platinum and palladium, are the most effective catalysts for the oxidation of hydrocarbons. However, the limited supply of these noble metals imposes a need for developing alternative catalysts. Transition metal oxides are attractive alternatives due to their high thermal stability and low cost. Previous studies of metal oxide catalysts have focused on metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) supported on porous substrates, such as Al2O3, ZrO2 and spinel-type (AB2O4) supports. Although the dispersed metal species over large surface area have shown much higher activity than the bulk metal oxide, there are several limitations. First, interactions between the support and NPs at high temperatures impede the fundamental understanding of the catalytic properties of individual NPs, and limit their application conditions. Moreover, the solid supports limit the loading of NPs because NPs tend to aggregate at large loadings, leading to a decrease in catalytic activity. Herein, one-dimensional (1-D) nanostructured metal oxide were directly grown on metal mesh substrates and used as catalysts for hydrocarbons oxidation. The 1-D nanostructured catalysts benefits from reduced interaction with the substrates, great flexibility in increasing the catalyst loading, and convenience in tuning the surface chemistry for higher catalytic activity, thus exhibit comparable or better catalytic activity and stability compared to the supported NPs. As one of the most active metal oxide catalysts, CuO was used as a model system to demonstrate the effectiveness of the 1-D nanostructured metal oxide catalysts. CuO NWs have been grown on Cu mesh by solid phase diffusion and applied to catalyze methane oxidation reactions. The CuO NWs have shown comparable or even better activity and stability than the supported CuO NPs. Moreover, owing to the fact that the NWs were exposed on the substrate surface and easy to access, two methods were used to tune the NWs for enhanced catalytic activity. The first one was to reduce the CuO NWs to more active Cu2O NWs by H2 plasma, which has shown 20% increase activity for CH4 oxidation reactions and several times higher activity for CO oxidation reactions. The kinetics study have shown that the bulk oxygen diffusion in Cu2O was faster, which could be one of the reasons for higher activity of Cu2O than that of CuO. The second tuning method was to decorate the CuO NWs with more active NP materials, such as Co3O4 and noble metals with a newly developed simple, fast and general sol-flame method. After the Co3O4 decoration, the CuO NWs surface was uniformly and densely covered by Co3O4 NP-chain structures, with large NP loading, high surface area and minimal aggregation, resulting in times higher activity in catalyzing CH4 oxidation. Moreover, this sol-flame method is a general method to decorate NWs with various NPs, and even to dope NWs with dopants for desirable properties. Given the generality and simplicity of the sol-flame methods, it can be applied to not only catalysis, but also other important application areas, such as lithium ion battery, supercapacitor and photoelectrochemical devices. In addition, to incorporate Cu and Co, the most active metal oxide catalyst Co3O4 was grown as 1-D structure on stainless steel mesh with the Cu2+ ion enhanced ammonia-evaporation-induced synthesis method. The synergetic effects of Cu and Co in catalytic process were studied, which have shown that the Cu2+ improved the nucleation and growth process of 1-D Co3O4, however, the catalytic activity is mainly from the Co species.

Download or read book Chemistry of Nanocrystalline Oxide Materials written by K. C. Patil and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nano-oxide materials lend themselves to applications in a wide variety of emerging technological fields such as microelectronics, catalysts, ceramics, coatings, and energy storage. However, developing new routes for making nano-based materials is a challenging area for solid-state materials chemists. This book does just that by describing a novel method for preparing them. The authors have developed a novel low-temperature, self-propagating synthetic route to nano-oxides by the solution combustion and combustible precursor processes. This method provides the desired composition, structure, and properties for many types of technologically useful nanocrystalline oxide materials like alumina, ceria, iron oxides, titania, yttria, and zirconia, among others.The book is particularly instructive in bringing readers one step closer to the exploration of nanomaterials. Students of nanoscience can acquaint themselves with the actual production and evaluation of nanopowders by this route, while academic researchers and industrial scientists will find answers to a host of questions on nano-oxides. The book also provides an impetus for scientists in industrial research to evaluate and explore new ways to scale up the production of nanomaterials, offering helpful suggestions for further research.
