Well-Defined Ti Surface Sites in Ziegler-Natta Pre-Catalysts from 47/49Ti Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Pierrick Berruyer

Treatment of Ziegler-Natta (ZN) catalysts with BCl3 improves their activity by increasing the number of active sites. Here we show how Ti-47/49 solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy enables us to understand the electronic structure of t ...

Influence of pH on the chloride binding capacity of Limestone Calcined Clay Cements (LC3)

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet

The high solution to solid ratio normally used for the measurement of chloride binding isotherms, leads to a leaching of ions and a decrease of pH. To make binding test more representative of on-site conditions, we investigated the influence of the increas ...
