a mild, green and highly efficient route for regio-selective amination of oxiranes was developed via incorporation of mn(ii), fe(ii), co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii) and zn(ii) cations onto the surface of hydroxyapatite-encapsulated γ-fe2o3 nanoparticles (γ-fe2o3@hap). among six magnetically recoverable catalytic systems denoted as [γ-fe2o3@hap-mii], the catalyst in which m designated as fe(ii) showed t...

In this paper, LaBO3 perovskite type catalyst formulations were prepared by sol-gel auto combustion method using citric acid as the fuel. Activity of catalysts was tested in catalytic oxidation of toluene as a model of volatile organic compounds. LaCoO3 perovskite formulation showed the highest activity among LaBO3 (Fe, Mn and Co) perovskite catalysts. So, LaCoO3 perovskite based catalyst was s...

PVC/NiFe2O4/Fe2O3 compositewas successfully synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Also, the catalytic activity of PVC/NiFe2O4/Fe2O3 has been considered in the synthesis of two arylidene barbitu...

Tetrazoles have many interesting futures and applications in drug and energy industries. 5-Substituted 1H-tetrazoles were synthesized via [2+3] cycloaddition reaction of aryl or alkyl nitriles with sodium azide in the presence of [email protected] as catalyst in DMF under reflux conditions.  The catalyst was removed from reaction mixture by an...

We report the controlled growth of ultralong single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) arrays using an improved chemical vapor deposition strategy. Using ethanol or methane as the feed gas, monodispersed Fe-Mo as the catalyst, and a superaligned carbon nanotube (CNT) film as the catalyst supporting frame, ultralong CNTs over 18.5 cm long were grown on Si substrates. The growth rate of the CNTs was mor...

Entangled carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were synthesized on a flexible carbon fabric (CF) via water-assisted chemical vapor deposition at 800°C at atmospheric pressure utilizing iron (Fe) nanoparticles as catalysts, ethylene (C2H4) as the precursor gas, and argon (Ar) and hydrogen (H2) as the carrier gases. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electron dispersive spect...

The acidic agent (SO3H) was stabilized on the silica coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles to produce Fe3O4@SiO2@Pr-SO3H, as a heterogeneous acidic catalyst, was designed, and then fully studied and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, TGA, DTA, TEM, and SEM analysis. Subsequently, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4...

The gasification of biomass is a promising technique to generate different forms of valuable alternative energy, including direct thermal energy and further conversion of synthesis gas to clean liquid fuels or chemicals via Fischer– Tropsch synthesis (FTS) [1–5]. The ideal H2/CO ratio for FTS is ~2/1 based on the stoichiometry. However, The H2/ CO for the synthesis gas obtained from biomass gas...

Catalyst activity and performance are the most important factors for selecting a catalyst in different processes. The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is a very important synthesis that extensive action has been taken place to increase the activity of its catalysts in the recent century. Deactivation of the catalysts of the process is influenced by many factors, among which coking and sintering have c...
