Analysis of 19F, 23Na NMR spectra made it possible to reveal the character of ion motions in the fluoride and sodium sublattices with temperature variation, to determine the types and temperature ranges in which they took place. It was found that the dominant form of ionic mobility in the samples I and II above 380 K was the diffusion of fluoride and sodium ions. According to preliminary results of electro-physical studies, the conductivity reached values of ~ 2×10–2 – 10–3 S/cm above 500 K. The solid solutions I and II can be recommended as a basis for use in the development of new functional materials.展开更多

They were characterized by XRD, EXAFS and BET surface area determination. The reduction features of the promoters were measured by temperature programmed reduction (TPR) of H 2 to access the potential for the promoters containing praseodymia as oxygen storage component in three way catalyst. The (Pr Zr)O 2 cubic solid solution is formed at high temperature up to 800 ℃, which makes it more reducible than the (Ce Zr)O 2 solid solution. For the (Pr Ce Zr)O 2 samples, the ternary solid solution plays an important role in the reduction process. The performance of the three way catalysts with fully formulated Pt, Pd and Rh is proceeded by using both light off temperature under a stoichiometric gas composition and the conversion of CO, C 3H 6 and NO under changing air/fuel ratio at a constant reaction temperature 400 ℃ . The results indicate that a small amount of praseodymia doping into (Ce Zr)O 2 favors the light off temperature of C 3H 6 and NO, and all the catalysts containing praseodymia obviously exhibits enhanced width of S value for NO conversion at lean region ( S ≥1.00).展开更多

Their pumping oxygen characteristics in non-dehydrated Ar gas were investigated, where a ZrO2 （Y2O3 stabilized） oxygen sensor was used to measure the oxygen partial pressure Po2. The results showed that the Po2 value reached magnitudes of 1×10^-2-1×10^-10 Pa at the applied pumping oxygen voltage of 0.5 V, 1×10^-37-1×10^-27 Pa at 1.0 V and 1×10^-53-1×10^47 Pa at 2.0 V within the temperature range from 550 to 650 ℃. Moreover, no cracks were found in the tested solid electrolyte tubes. Thus, the Bi2O3-Y2O3 system might be used in solid electrolyte oxygen pump for purifying gases.展开更多

No X-ray diffraction peak of crystalline Eu2O3 can be found for all samples studied. The LRS show that two peaks at 998 and 1051 cm-1 assigned to two-dimensional surface europium-oxygen species appear at Eu2O3 content of 18.7 wt%. The peak at 1068 cm-1 due to the surface species and another peak at 342cm-1 due to crystalline Eu2O3 content start to appear for the sample with an Eu2O3 content of 36.5 wt%. The dispersity of Eu2O3 on the surface of amorphous Al2O3 were compared with that of α-Al2O3,η-Al2O3 and SiO2 gel. The results of these studies indicate that the structure of Eu2O3 dispersed onto the support surface depend on the structure of support and that there is an inductive effect of support on the structure of the Eu2O3.展开更多
