Boosting the Hydrodeoxygenation Activity and Selectivity of Ni/(M)-SBA-15 Catalysts by Chemical Alteration of the Support.

The influence of the acid sites in the hydrodeoxygenation of anisole performed over Ni catalysts supported on SBA-15 modified with metal oxides (Ni/M-SBA-15, M = Ti, Zr, Al, or Nb) was demonstrated. Catalysts were characterized by SEM-EDX, nitrogen physisorption, XRD, UV-visible DRS, TPR, TPD of ammonia, IR-Py, O chemisorption, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The mesoporous structure and the hexagonal arrangement of the supports were maintained in the catalysts.

Dry reforming of methane over nickel supported on Nd-ceria: enhancement of the catalytic properties and coke resistance.

Nickel (5 wt%) supported on Nd-doped ceria was studied as catalysts in the DRM reaction at stoichiometric conditions in the range of 600-800 °C. Ce Nd O supports with different Nd contents ( = 0, 0.05, 0.

Relevance of hydrogen bonding in CO capture enhancement within InOF-1: an energy and vibrational analysis.

The enhancement of CO capture due to the confinement of polar molecules within InOF-1 was previously demonstrated. In particular, the presence of MeOH produced 1.30-fold increase in the total CO capture.

Textural, structural and electrical properties of TiO nanoparticles using Brij 35 and P123 as surfactants.

The effect of the use of the triblock copolymer Pluronic P123[(PEO)(PPO)(PEO), Aldrich] and the non-ionic polyoxyethylene-lauryl ether Brij 35 as surfactants on the textural, structural and electrical properties of nanosized TiO is analyzed in this work. The as-obtained samples were thermally treated at 400 °C to eliminate the surfactant, promote dehydroxylation and crystallize the sample. The TiO samples were characterized by thermal analysis, N physisorption, x-ray diffraction analysis, micro-Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.
