Ag‐Cu‐Cl/BaCO3 catalyst with 0.036 wt% Cu and 0.060 wt% Cl exhibitedthe highest catalytic performance for gas‐phase epoxidation of propylene by molecular oxygen. Apropylene oxide selectivity of 83.7% and propylene conversion of 1.2% were achieved under thereaction conditions of 20% C3H6‐10% O2‐70% N2, 200 °C, 0.1 MPa and 3000 h?1. Increasing the Clloading allowed Ag to ensemble easier, whereas changing the Cu loading showed little effect on Agcrystallite size. The appropriate Cl loading of Ag‐Cu‐Cl/BaCO3 catalyst can reduce the dissociationadsorption of oxygen to atomic oxygen species leading to the combustion of propylene to CO2, whichbenefits epoxidation of propylene by molecular oxygen. Excessive Cl loading of Ag‐Cu‐Cl/BaCO3catalyst decreases propylene conversion and propylene oxide selectivity remarkably because of Clpoisoning. The appropriate Cu loading of Ag‐Cu‐Cl/BaCO3 catalyst is efficient for the epoxidation ofpropylene by molecular oxygen, and an excess Cu loading decreases propylene oxide selectivitybecause the aggregation of Cu species increases the exposed surfaces of Ag nanoparticles, whichwas shown by slight increases in atomic oxygen species adsorbed. The appropriate loadings of Cu and Cl of Ag‐Cu‐Cl/BaCO3 catalyst are important to strike the balance between molecular oxygen and atomic oxygen species to create a favorable epoxidation of propylene by molecular oxygen.展开更多

A linear decrease of ln[CMC] vs number of oxypropylene units in copolymer molecule was observed. The change in the work of cohesion per oxypropylene group when passing from molecular into micellar state, calculated from the Shinoda equation, was 0.43kT for the studied compounds.展开更多

The influence of coagulating agents such as formic acid, sulfuric acid and boiling water on the coagulation of NR-g-PMMA latices were investigated. These types of coagulating agent formed compact coagulum and the effect of NR-g-PMMA compounds on cure characteristics, physical properties and appearances were reported.展开更多

The effects of reaction temperature, pressure, weight hourly space velocity(WHSV) and H2/methanol ratio on the concentration of various impurities in methanol solvent were investigated. It was found out that the aldehyde, hydrogen peroxide and nitro compounds in the methanol solvent could be completely hydrogenated over the Ni catalyst under proper reaction conditions. 90% of acetone and up to 50% of acetals(ketals) existing in the methanol solvent could be hydrogenated. No significant change was observed for the rest of the impurities that were present in the methanol solvent(i. e., 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 2-methoxy-1-propanol and 1,2-propanediol). The H2O2 decomposition reaction was enhanced using Ni catalyst, through the formation of NioOH, but no oxygen was found in the off-gas of hydrogenation reaction since NioH could react on NioOH formed via dissociative adsorption of hydrogen peroxide, or on NioO formed via adsorption of oxygen.展开更多

The results demonstrated that the prepared catalysts exhibited moderate to good activity and enantioselectivity in the asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins. Furthermore, the immobilized catalysts were relatively stable and could be conveniently separated from the reaction system by simple precipitation in hexane. Moreover, higher enantioselectivity was obtained with catalyst 2c than that of homogeneous counterpart catalyzed even after eight times. The excellent recycling of the catalyst was attributed to its structure feature of ZPS-IPPA which is different from either pure polystyrene or pure zirconium phosphates.展开更多
