Oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a promising method for the direct conversion of methane to ethene and ethane (C2 products). Among the catalysts reported previously, Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiO2 showed the highest conversion and selectivity, but only at 800° to 900°C, which represents a substantial challenge for commercialization. We report a TiO2-doped Mn2O3-Na2WO4/SiO2 catalyst by using Ti-MWW zeo...

SiO2/MgCl2 (ethoxide type)/TiCl4 Ziegler-Natta catalysts for use in ethylene polymerization and ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization have been prepared using silica with a supported layer of magnesium ethoxide (Mg(OEt)2) as a catalyst precursor, followed by treating with TiCl4 at different Ti/Mg molar ratios, which showed significant effects on the active centers and pore structures of the cataly...

a simple highly versatile and efficient sonochemical synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted and 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is achieved by condensation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compound, aldehyde, ammonium acetate and primary amine using antimony trichloride immobilized on silica gel (sio2-osbcl2) as a catalyst in ethanol at moderate temperature. operational simplicity, practicability and applicabi...

A comparison study has been conducted on the formation of catalyst nanoparticles on a high surface tension metal and low surface tension oxide for carbon nanotube CNT growth via catalytic chemical vapor deposition CCVD . Silicon dioxide SiO2 and tantalum have been deposited as supporting layers before deposition of a thin layer of iron catalyst. Iron nanoparticles were formed after thermal anne...

Low-temperature growth, as well as the transfer free growth on substrates, is the major concern of graphene research for its practical applications. Here we propose a simple method to achieve the transfer free graphene growth on SiO2 covered Si (SiO2/Si) substrate at 250 °C based on a solid-liquid-solid reaction. The key to this approach is the catalyst metal, which is not popular for graphene ...

ethylene polymerization was carried out using phillips chromium catalyst based on silica supports such as silicaaerogel, sio2 (grace 643), and titanium modified sio2 (g 643), and the results were compared with othercatalysts based on sio2 (aldrich), sba-15(hex), sba-15(sp) and mcm-41. a combination of tga, dsc, xrd,nitrogen adsorption, sem, icp, ftir and other analyses were used to characterize...

The largest industrial application of olefin metathesis today is the synthesis of propylene from ethylene and butenes employing WO3 on SiO2, a relatively long-lived and regenerable catalyst that operates at 350–400 °C. It is widely proposed that high temperatures are required because the percentage of metal sites actually involved in the metathesis reaction is extremely low, or the reaction tha...

A convergent [3+2] block synthetic strategy was developed for the synthesis of the pentasaccharide repeating unit of the cell wall O-antigen of Escherichia coli O11 strain in excellent yield in a minimum number of steps. Several suitably functionalized thioglycoside derivatives were used as glycosyl donors during the synthesis of the target compound. A thioglycoside was the glycosyl donor used ...

a new magnetic nanocatalyst has been prepared using immobilization of vanadate onto aminopropyl functionalized sio2/fe3o4(vo3-/nh3+-sio2/fe3o4). the obtained magnetic catalyst was characterized by ft-ir, xrd, vsm and sem techniques and used for sulfoxidation of sulfide compounds to the correspondingsulfoxides in presence of h2o2 as oxidant at room temperature. the optimum of reaction conditions...
