The present contribution reports on the features of platinum-based systems supported on vanadium oxide nanotubes. The synthesis of nanotubes was carried out using a commercial vanadium pentoxide via hydrothermal route. The nanostructured hybrid materials were prepared by wet impregnation using two different platinum precursors. The formation of platinum nanoparticles was evaluated by applying d...

We investigated the feasibility of hydrogen storage with electrochemically formed VO2 nanotubes. The nanotubes were fabricated through anodization vanadium metal in fluoride ion-containing organic electrolyte followed by an annealing process Ar-saturated atmosphere at 673 K for 3 h a heating rate /min. During anodization, current density significantly increased up to 7.93 mA/cm2 approximately 5...

fuel oil used in power plants contain metal impurities like vanadium. after combustion, this metal remains in boiler fuel ash in the form of oxide. in this research, extraction of vanadium oxide from fuel ash has been investigated. two processes were used for this purpose. a pyro- hydrometallurgy and a hydrometallurgy process. in the pyro-hydrometallurgy process, using sodium carbonate, salt ro...

In this study at first, in laboratory, three types of vanadium oxide were produced by using porous graphene and amine framework in hydrothermal method nanostructures such as: vanadium oxide - octadecyl amine - graphene, vanadium oxide - dodecyl amine - graphene and vanadium oxide – aniline - graphene (V-ODA-G، V-DDA-G، V-A-G). Then their structures and functions in propane dehydrogenation react...

Recent studies of supported vanadium oxide catalysts have revealed that the vanadium oxide component is present as a twodimensional metal oxide overlayer on oxide supports (i.e., A1203, TiO2) (1-9). These surface vanadium oxide species are generally more selective and active than bulk, crystalline V205 for the partial oxidation of hydrocarbons (3, 5, 10, 11). The molecular structures of these s...

The effect of the point of zero charge (PZC) of the support oxide (Al2O3,Nb2O5, SiO2 and ZrO2) on the molecular structure of hydrated vanadium oxide specieshas been investigated with EXAFS spectroscopy for low-loaded vanadium oxidecatalysts. It was found that the degree of clustering (i.e., the V---V coordinationnumber) and the V---V distance increase with decreasing PZC of ...
