Michèle C. Reis, Suellen D.T. Barros, Elizabeth R. Lachter, Rosane A.S. San Gil, Jhonny H. Flores, Maria I. Pais da Silva, Thomas Onfroy

In this work mesoporous niobium phosphate was synthesized hydrothermally by using SDS as the structure directing agent. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, DRX, 31P MAS NMR and FTIR. The activity of commercial and synthesized niobium phosphate catalysts were evaluated through the…

Inhalation of uranium nanoparticles: respiratory tract deposition and translocation to secondary target organs in rats.

Fabrice Petitot, Philippe Lestaevel, Elie Tourlonias, Charline Mazzucco, Sébastien Jacquinot, Bernadette Dhieux, Olivia Delissen, Benjamin B. Tournier, Charline Gendarmes, Patricia Beaunier, Isabelle Dublineau

Uranium nanoparticles (<100 nm) can be released into the atmosphere during industrial stages of the nuclear fuel cycle and during remediation and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. Explosions and fires in nuclear reactors and the use of ammunition containing depleted uranium can also produce…

Adsorption properties of Fe-containing dealuminated BEA zeolites as revealed by FTIR spectroscopy

Konstantin Hadjiivanov, Elena Ivanova, Radoslav Kefirov, Janusz Janas, Anna Plesniar, Stanislaw Dzwigaj, Michel Che

Adsorption properties of Fe-containing dealuminated BEA zeolites were investigated by FTIR spectroscopy of adsorbed CO and NO. Two Fe-containing SiBEA zeolite samples were prepared by a two-step post-synthesis method: creation of vacant T-atom sites (T = Si, Al) by dealumination of…

Catalytic Aspects of Light-Induced Hydrogen Generation in Water with TiO2 and Other Photocatalysts: A Simple and Practical Way Towards a Normalization?

Thomas Maschmeyer, Michel Che

Evaluation is discussed of performance of solid photocatalysts for H2 generation from H2O so that they can be compared in a simple way whether sacrificial soln. is used or not. The addnl. chem. potential present in a sacrificial soln. will be the same regardless of the catalyst system used, so…

Quantitative relationship between the nature of surface species and the catalytic activity of tungsten oxides supported on crystallized titania

Thomas Onfroy, Vanessa Lebarbier, Guillaume Clet, Marwan Houalla

A series of WOx/TiO2 catalysts contg. between 0.6 and 3.4 W at./nm2 was prepd. by pore vol. impregnation using ammonium metatungstate soln. on crystd. TiO2. Characterization of the solids by X-ray diffraction and Raman and IR spectroscopy indicated that the W phase was present essentially as a…

Vanadium-containing SBA-15 systems prepared by direct synthesis: physicochemical and catalytic properties in the decomposition of dichloromethane

Marco Piumetti, Barbara Bonelli, Marco Armandi, Lucia Gaberova, Sandra Casale, Pascale Massiani, Edoardo Garrone

Vx/SBA-15 catalysts (V content = 0.7-4.8 wt.%) were directly synthesized and tested for the oxidative decompn. of dichloromethane; impregnation-synthesized SBA-15 and V/SBA-15 catalysts were ref. samples. Catalyst structural and surface properties were characterized by complementary physicochem.…

Group V metal substitution in silicate model zeolites: In search for the active site

Frederik Tielens, Stanislaw Dzwigaj

Group V substituted zeolites were characterized using periodic DFT. It is found that the group V sites in zeolite materials become more hydrophobic and less reducible descending the column of the Period Table. The stable site with T=O group for T = V, transforms into a site with T-OH group for T =…

The role of the synthesis method in the structure formation of cobalt aluminate

Thomas Onfroy, Wen-Cui Li, Ferdi Schueth, Helmut Knoezinger

Cobalt aluminate (spinel) was prepd. via two synthesis routes firstly a co-pptn. method and secondly a nanocasting method. The surface chem. of these materials was characterized by IR-spectroscopy of the surface hydroxyl groups and of coordinatively unsatd. (cus) cations (Al and Co) by carbon…

Controlled preparation of CoPdSiBEA zeolite catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO with methane and their characterisation by XRD, DR UV-vis, TPR, XPS

Ana Rodrigues, Patrick da Costa, C. Methivier, S. Dzwigaj

The Pd0.15SiBEA and CoxPd0.15SiBEA zeolites (where x= 1.0 and 3.0 wt.% Co) are prepared by a two-step postsynthesis method which allows to control the introduction of palladium and cobalt into zeolite and thus to obtain catalysts with specific bimetallic Pd and Co sites. The effect of Co content on…
