nanostructured iron oxide powder that has been recovered from waste pickling liquor unit of steel industry was studied for oxidation catalytic applications. in this research, the powder was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transition electron microscopy (tem) for determination of phase structure, morphology and particle size. furthermore, the specific surface area of the powder was ...

a green, efficient and selective approach for the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones with uhp at room temperature is reported. the reaction is performed in the presence of vanadia catalyst supported on mesocellular silica foam (mcf) with a v content ranging from 2% to 10% as heterogeneous and reusable catalyst. the structural and textural characterization of this catalyst were don...

A highly active and stable nano structured Pt/Mg1-xNixO catalysts was developed by a simple co-precipitation method. The obtained Pt/Mg1-xNixO catalyst exhibited cubic structure nanocatalyst with a size of 50-80 nm and realized CH4 and CO2 conversions as high as 98% at 900°C with excellent stability in the dry reforming of methane. The characterization of catalyst was performed using various ki...

In this work a novel heterojunction catalyst have been synthesized and employed as a highly efficient catalyst for one-pot synthesis of substituted imidazoles. Analytical methods including Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy- dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Vibrating Sample Magnom...

nanocrystalline sio2–hclo4, as a newly reported catalyst, has been used as an efficient and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives. the procedure can be successfully applied to the efficient synthesis of mono substituted pyrimidine derivatives, using triethyl orthoformate, ammonium acetate, methyl ketone derivatives. in practice, this method is a combination of a satisfac...

The synthesis of polynorbornene by ring opening metathesis polymerizations (ROMP) in the presence of 2 nd generation Grubbs catalyst-functionalized nanotube initiators, is reported. A full characterization of Grubbs catalyst-functionalized nanotubes was performed by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) and TG-DTGMS (Thermogravimetrical Analysis coupled with Mass Spectrometer), in orde...

The scalable chemical vapor deposition of monolayer hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) single crystals, with lateral dimensions of ∼0.3 mm, and of continuous h-BN monolayer films with large domain sizes (>25 μm) is demonstrated via an admixture of Si to Fe catalyst films. A simple thin-film Fe/SiO2/Si catalyst system is used to show that controlled Si diffusion into the Fe catalyst allows exclusive...
