Plasmonic oxidation of glycerol using AuPd/TiO2 catalysts

Selective Oxidation of Glycerol by Highly Active Bimetallic Catalysts at Ambient Temperature under Base-Free Conditions**

PdAu/C catalysts prepared by plasma sputtering for the electro-oxidation of glycerol

Co-sputtered Pd0.7Au0.3 catalyst and alternate sputtered Pd0.35Au0.3Pd0.35 and Au0.15Pd0.7Au0.15 materials were prepared by plasma deposition of Au and Pd atoms on a carbon diffusion layer. Atomic composition and metal loadings were evaluated from EDX and RBS, respectively. The low amount of deposited and of the resulting low metallic film thickness made TEM and XRD characterizations difficult ...

Selective Oxidation of Raw Glycerol Using Supported AuPd Nanoparticles

Bimetallic AuPd supported on different carbonaceous materials and TiO2 was tested in the liquid phase oxidation of commercial grade and raw glycerol. The latter was directly obtained from the base-catalyzed transesterification of edible rapeseed oil using KOH. The best catalytic results were obtained using activated carbon and nitrogen-functionalized carbon nanofibers as supports. In fact, the ...

Catalytic Oxidation of 4-Methylpyridine on Modified Vanadium Oxide Catalysts

The reaction of gas-phase oxidation of 4-methylpyridine on individual V2O5, binary and ternary vanadium-oxide catalysts was studied. These catalysts were modified by additives of SnO2 and TiO2. It was found that modifying V2O5 leads to increase the activity of binary contacts. Upon transition from binary V2O5<...
