bis-(l-tyrosinato)copper(ii) was reacted with 3-(chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane functionalized silica that has infused magnetite to yield a magnetically separable catalyst in which the copper carboxylate is covalently linked to the silica matrix through the silane linkage. the immobilized catalyst has been characterized by spectroscopic studies (such as ft-ir, epr, magnetic measurement, sem) an...

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...

Highly active/stable inverse catalysts of nano-oxides on large gold particles are designed and tailored. For the gas-phase oxidation of alcohols as a model reaction, the experimental and theoretical results verify that the catalyst activity depends on the gold-oxide interface, and the anti-sintering feature of such an inverse structure endows the catalyst with high stability.

using a magnetic property measurement system (mpms), we measure magnetic susceptibility continuously at frequencies from 0 to 1000 hz for three different superparamagnetic (sp) grain sizes of magnetite (5nm, 7 nm and 10 nm) suspended in hydrocarbons (ferrofluids). our results confirm non-zero values of frequency-dependent susceptibility in the fine tail of nano-sized grains and provide new empi...

Inspired by Nature's catalyst, a nano-size layered manganese-calcium oxide showed a low overvoltage for water oxidation in acidic solutions, which is comparable to platinum.

Using DC-Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition (PECVD) system, the impact of pure Co onthe growth of diamond-like carbon (DLC) nano-structures were investigated. In this study, Acetylene(C2H2) was diluted in H2 and used as the reaction gas and Cobalt (Co) nano-particles were used asthe catalyst. The effect of preparing Co catalyst at temperatures of 240°C and 350°C and growthconditions was...

Supported olefin polymerization catalysts can prevent reactor-fouling problems and produce uniform polymer particles. Constrained geometry complexes (CGCs) have less sterically hindered active sites than bis-cyclopentadienyl metallocene catalysts. In the literature, micrometer-sized silica particles were used for supporting CGC catalysts, which might have strong mass transfer limitations. This ...

Abstract There are various methods to produce iron based nano crystalline magnetic alloys. Among these methods, mechanical alloying is one of the most important. In this research, nano crystalline Fe85Si10Ni5 soft magnetic alloy was synthesized by mechanical alloying. The effect of alloying time on phase constituents and magnetic properties of the produced powders was investigated, by X-ray di...
