Two-phase electrocatalysis by aqueous colloids
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, the combination of the advantages of two-phase catalysis, electrocatalysis and colloid catalysis is presented. It is shown that palladium or gold colloids prepared by citrate reduction can be charged negatively in a heterogeneous two-phase reaction and subsequently used as aqueous catalysts for dehalogenation reactions. This can be regarded as a new type of electrocatalysis. 2002 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Cloud point of aqueous solutions of tetrabutylammonium dodecyl sulfate is a function of the concentration of counterions in the aqueous phase.
The cloud point of the surfactant tetrabutylammonium dodecyl sulfate is shown to be a function of the tetrabutylammonium counterion concentration in the aqueous phase whether the counterions are provided by the surfactant or both the surfactant and added tetrabutylammonium bromide. The micellized surfactant dissociates 17% of its counterions to aqueous phase.
متن کاملNovel routes to metal nanoparticles: Electrodeposition and reactions at liquid|liquid interfaces
This thesis considers the nucleation and growth, synthesis, and catalytic application of metallic nanoparticles at liquid|liquid interfaces. It comprises five publications, a previously unpublished synthesis of polymer coated palladium nanoparticles, and an introduction to the relevant literature. Three publications are concerned with electrodeposition of metal nanoparticles at liquid|liquid in...
متن کاملPartitioning behavior of silica-coated nanoparticles in aqueous micellar two-phase systems: evidence for an adsorption-driven mechanism from QCM-D and ATR-FTIR measurements.
Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), and total organic carbon detection (TOC) are employed to examine the cause of the differences in the partitioning of silica-coated nanoparticles in an aqueous micellar two-phase system based on nonionic surfactant Eumulgin ES. The particles partition into the mi...
متن کاملHydrolysis of Chlorpyrifos in Aqueous and Colloidal Systems
Hydrolysis of chlorpyrifos [O,O-diethyl O-(3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl) phosphorothioate] to TCP (3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol) is an important degradation process influencing the fate of chlorpyrifos in aquatic environments. The effects of water chemistry and suspended colloids (smectites, humic acid, and river sediment) on the hydrolysis of chlorpyrifos were investigated in this study. Chlorpyri...
متن کاملDielectric analysis of a nanoscale particle in an aqueous solution of low electrolyte concentration.
The dielectric spectra of aqueous suspensions of nanoscale silica particles (8 and 24 nm) with low electrolyte concentrations were investigated as a function of the particle concentration. Obvious dispersions observed in the frequency range of 10-10(5) kHz are explained by the multiple effects of the interfacial polarization and the polarization of counterions by using a two-step model and the ...
