Storage-Reduction of NO_(x)over Combined Catalysts of Pt/Ba/Al_(2)O_(3)-Mn/Ba/Al_(2)O_(3):Carbon Monoxide as Reductant

Storage-reduction of NOx by carbon monoxide was investigated over combined catalysts of Mn/Ba/Al2O3-Pt/Ba/Al2O3. Combination of Mn/Ba/Al2O3 and Pt/Ba/Al2O3 catalysts in different ways showed excellent NOx storage-reduction performance and the content of Pt could be reduced by 50%. Not only the addition of 5Mn/15Ba/Al2O3 to 1Pt/15Ba/Al2O3 could improve its storage ability, but also enhance the NOx conversion consequently. NOx conversion over the combined catalysts （the combined catalysts Ⅰ and Ⅱ） was increased under dynamic lean-rich burn conditions, the maximum NOx conversion increased from 69.4% to respectively 78.8% and 75.7% over two combined catalysts.

Copolymerization of Ethylene/1-Butene with Heterogeneous TiCl4/(α-Diimine)nickel(Ⅱ) Complex Combined Catalyst

The new type heterogeneous combined catalyst system TiCl4-(α-diimine)nickel(Ⅱ) complexes/MgCl2-SiO2/AlR3 was prepared. Ethylene and 1-butene were copolymerized with the catalysts in slurry phase. It was found that with combined catalyst, the copolymers with lower density and higher branched degree were obtained. 13CNMR results showed that in the obtained copolymers existed not only ethyl but also some other kinds of branches due to the fact that ethylene exhibits the behavior of oligomerization and copolymerization in-situ with combined catalysts.

SYNTHESIS OF BRANCHED POLYETHYLENE USING (α-DIIMINE)NICKEL(Ⅱ)TiCl_4 COMBINED AND SUPPORTED CATALYST

Diimine)nickel {[C 6 H 5 -N = C(CH 3 ) - C(CH 3 ) = N - QH 5 ]NiBr 2 }-TiCl 4 , abbreviated as NiL-TiCl 4 combined catalyst which is supported on MgCl 2 -SiO 2 carrier has been prepared, by using alkyl aluminum (AlR 3 ) as the cocatalyst in place of methylaluminoxane (MAO) to catalyze ethylene oligomerization and copolymerization in situ. The influences of procedure for supporting NiL-TiCl 4 , the molar ratio of NiL to TiCl 4 , cocatalyst type and polymerization temperature on the catalytic performance were studied. The degree of branching and the composition of the branched chain of polymers produced have been investigated by IR and 13C-NMR spectra. The results show that the combined catalyst can synthesize the branched polyethylene with various banched chains .The polymerization reaction was monitored by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results show that this catalyst promotes the oligomerization and copolymerization in situ for ethylene.

A novel four-way combining catalysts for simultaneous removal of exhaust pollutants from diesel engine

A novel four-way combining catalysts containing double layers was applied to simultaneously remove four kinds of exhaust pollutants （NOx, CO, HC and PM） emitted from diesel engine. The four-way catalysts were characterized using scanning electron microscope （SEM） and Ultraviolet visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy （UV-Vis DRS）. Their catalytic performances were evaluated by temperature-programmed reaction technology. The double layer catalysts could effectively remove the four main pollutants. The highest catalytic activity was given by the two-layered catalysts of La0.6 K0.4CoO3/Al2O3 and W/HZSM-5. Under the simulated exhaust gases conditions, the peak temperature of the soot combustion was 421℃, the maximal conversion of NO to N2 was 74%, the temperature of the HC total conversion was 357℃, and the maximum conversion ratio of CO was 99%.

Anionic polymerization of fluorine-substituted phenyl methacrylates

Synthesis and anionic polymerization of the fluorine-substituted phenyl methacrylates are herein reported. A series of monodi-, and multi-substituted fluorophenyl methacrylates H2C=C（CH3）C（O）OC6H4F-4 （M^1a）, H2C=C（CH3）C（O）OC6H4F-3 （M^1b）, HEC=C（CH3）C（O）OC6H3F2-2,4 （M^2）, H2C=C（CH3）C（O）OC6H2F3-2,3,4 （M^3）, H2C=C（CH3）C（O）OC6HF4-2,3,5,6 （M^4）, and H2C=C（CH3）C（O）OC6F5 （M^5） were synthesized and characterized. Initially, the polymerization was carded out on the monomer M^1a by using nBuLi, tBuLi, and KH as the respective catalysts; this approach produced the polymers in yields of 12%-50%, but with lower molecular weights. Similar results were obtained by using tBuLi for catalytically polymerizing the other five monomers. By introducing a co-catalyst MeAl（BHT）2, the catalysts Nail, LiH, and tBuOLi each were tested to polymerize M^1a, which gave the polymers in very low yields （3%-7%）. Polymer yields of 13%-27% were obtained by each of the catalysts LiAlH4, nBuLi, PhLi, and tBuLi in connection with MeAI（BHT）2, but a better yield （61%） was achieved with KH/MeAl（BHT）2. The KH/MeAl（BHT）2 catalyst system was further employed to polymerize M^1b and M^2, which afforded respective polymer yields of 12%-63% and 10%-53%, depending on the molar ratios of KH：MeAl（BHT）2 as well as on the monomer concentrations. All of the polymers produced were syndiotactically rich in structure, as indicated by either ^1H or ^19F NMR data. The polymerization mechanism by the combined catalyst system is proposed.
