The main objectives of this work are 2-fold : The development of a novel type of composite material based on carbon nanofibers supported on sintered metal fibers filters (CNF/SMF) and to explore the use of this material as a catalytic support for a model r ...
The principal objective of this thesis is the development of a palladium catalyst supported on woven fabrics of activated carbon fibers (ACF) for the reactions of hydrogenations in liquid phase and the design of multiphase reactors using the characteristic ...
Hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles on activated carbon fibers (ACFs) was studied. The ACF support in the form of woven fabrics provides the basis for structured catalytic fixed beds. In the present study, this catalyst was int ...
Pd nanoparticles (2 nm) stabilized in the micelle core of poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine) were studied in partial hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol. Both unsupported micelles (0.6 kg Pd/m3) and supported ones on g-Al2O3 (0.042% Pd) showed ...
A novel composite material based on carbon nanofibers (CNF) grown on sintered metal fibers (SMFInconel) filter was investigated for its favorable properties as catalytic support. The CNF were formed directly over the SMFInconel by thermal (650 degrees C) c ...
This thesis describes the synthesis, characterisation and macroscopic manipulation of carbon nanotubes. Two interconnected aspects were investigated: (i) growth of carbon nanotubes by catalytic chemical vapour deposition of acetylene and (ii) assembly and ...
The phosphido-substituted triruthenium cluster Ru-3(CO)(9)(mu-H)(mu-PPh2) is shown to react with H-2 to form the trihydride cluster Ru-3(CO)(9)(H)(mu-H)(2)(mu-PPh2), which undergoes a number of re-arrangement reactions on heating to yield other phosphido-s ...
A heterobimetallic Ru(II)-Rh(I) complex has been identified as a potent catalyst precursor for the Oppenauer-type oxidation of alcohols. With 0.1-0.5 mol% of this complex and K2CO3 as the co-catalyst, it is possible to oxidize secondary and primary alcohol ...
The electrochem. promoted induction of self-sustained catalytic rate and potential oscillations during C2H4 oxidn. was studied over sputtered Rh thin (40 nm catalyst films interfaced with ZrO2 (8 mol% Y2O3)). The reaction rate oscillates simultaneously wit ...
Rhodium thin film catalyst supported on YSZ solid electrolyte and interfaced with a dispersed TiO2 layer (Rh/TiO2/YSZ) exhibits the particular behavior of having two distinct stable states, an inactive (oxidized) and an active (metallic) state, with respec ...
