X-ray diffraction (XRD) and H2-temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) results suggested that the interaction between CeO2 and MnOx enhanced the reducibility of catalysts and therefore benzoic acid conversion. The addition of K increased the number of basic number on the catalyst which leads to a high selectivity to benzaldehyde, but excessive addition imposed negative effects on the catalyst performance. A Mn-K/CeO2-Al2O3 catalyst was developed and investigated in the reaction. The simultaneous addition of Mn and K enhanced not only the catalytic activity but also the capacity to resist the coke formation over catalyst.展开更多

The study reveals that factors including temperature, molar ratio of reactants, and the water removal significantly influence the conversion ratio of benzaldehyde. The results indicate that the use of optimal reaction conditions such as temperature and water removing exhibits more pronounced effects on the conversion ratio of benzaldehyde compared with the use of catalysts. In a word, a green and simple method for the condensation of aldehyde and menthandiol has been devised and investigated.展开更多

Here we demonstrate that the selectivity of benzyl alcohol can be tuned via functionalization of carbon nanotubes （CNTs）, which are used as the support of Pd. With the original CNTs, the selectivity of benzyl alcohol is 88% at a 100% conversion of benzaldehyde. With introduction of oxygen-containing groups onto CNTs, it drops to 27%. In contrast, doping CNTs with N atoms, the selectivity reaches 96% under the same reaction conditions. The kinetic study shows that hydrogenation of benzyl alcohol is significantly suppressed, which can be attributed to weakened adsorption of benzyl alcohol. This is most likely related to the modified electronic structure of Pd species via interaction with functionalized CNTs, as shown by XPS characterization.展开更多

The experimental results show that if the molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide to toluene is controlled within a reasonable range, the by-products may be neglected. The optimum technology of toluene oxidization to benzaldehyde is reaction time 60 min, reaction temperature 350℃, molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide to toluene 3.5. The yield of benzaldehyde can reach 17.2 % under the optimum condition. Research results of chemical reaction kinetics show that the consecutive reaction consists of two first-order reaction, and activation energy of these two reactions are 89 kJ·mol^-1 and 76 kJ·mol^-1 respectively,展开更多

The catalyst was characterized by XRD, XPS, TEM, and FT-IR. The catalytic results showed that toluene conversion and selectivity for benzaldehyde on catalyst sample No.4 (V/(V+Ag)=0.68) was higher than other catalysts with different V/Ag ratios. This was attributed to the higher surface area, larger pore volume and pore diameter of the catalyst sample No. 4 than the other catalysts. The XRD patterns recorded from the catalyst before and after the oxidation reaction revealed that the new phases were developed, and this suggested that silver had entered the vanadium lattice. XPS results showed that the vanadium on the surface of No.4 and No.5 sample was more than that in the bulk, thus forming a vanadium rich layer on the surface. It was noted that when the catalyst was doped by potassium promoter, the toluene conversion and selectivity for benzaldehyde were higher than those on the undoped catalyst. This was attributed to the disordered structure of V_2O_5 lattice of the K-doped catalyst and a better interracial contact between the particles.展开更多

The macroscopic kinetics of toluene consumption and benzaldehyde generation at 413–443 K were obtained from a combination of experimental observation and hypothetical models. The results clearly showed that both the oxidation rate of toluene and generation rate of the aromatic product were proportional to the concentration of the substrate, the partial pressure of oxygen and the surface area of the catalyst. The energy barrier of toluene oxidation to benzyl alcohol was the highest(≈ 81 kJ mol^(-1)), while that of benzyl alcohol oxidation to benzaldehyde was the lowest(≈ 57 kJ mol^(-1)). Moreover, the activation energy of further oxidation of benzaldehyde in an acetic acid solvent was only slightly lower(≈ 1.9 kJ mol^(-1)) than that of toluene oxidation. Significantly, the transformation of benzyl alcohol indeed contributed to the generation of benzaldehyde and this step conformed to a first-order parallel-consecutive model. Increased reaction temperature and residence time favored the transformation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. In addition, doping with molybdenum at Mn/Mo = 3/1 enhanced the catalytic performance of the heterogeneous catalyst and was attributed to the presence of a synergetic effect between different metal cations. Regarding the microscopic kinetics, the LH-OS-ND mechanism(Langmuir–Hinshelwood adsorption of reagents on the same type of active sites and non-dissociative adsorption of oxygen) was verified as responsible for the heterogeneous oxidation of toluene. Oxygen and benzaldehyde were weakly adsorbed(Δ H_(ads,Oxy) ≈^(-1)5 kJ mol^(-1), Δ H _(ads)0,Bald) ≈-30 kJ mol^(-1)), but showed strong mobility(Δ S_(ads,Oxy) ≈-22 J mol^(-1) K^(-1)), Δ S_(ads,Bald) ≈-39 J mol^(-1) K^(-1)). The fundamental intrinsic rates were deduced based on the LH-OS-ND mechanism and showed great consistency with the macroscopic results.展开更多

The electrolytic alkaline bath(p H 8.0) contained stoichiometric amounts of nickel sulfate, sodium tungstate, and trisodium citrate as precursors. The corrosion resistance of the Ni–W-alloy-coated specimens in 0.2 mol/L H2SO4 was studied using various electrochemical techniques. Tafel polarization studies reveal that the alloy coatings obtained from the bath containing 50 ppm benzaldehyde exhibit a protection efficiency of 95.33%. The corrosion rate also decreases by 21.5 times compared with that of the blank. A higher charge-transfer resistance of 1159.40 ?·cm2 and a lower double-layer capacitance of 29.4 μF·cm-2 further confirm the better corrosion resistance of the alloy coating. X-ray diffraction studies reveal that the deposits on the mild steel surface are consisted of nanocrystals. A lower surface roughness value(Rmax) of the deposits is confirmed by atomic force microscopy.展开更多

Experimental resalts show that mis recycling may be realized When electrolysis and synthetic reaction are carried out in the same concentration of 60% H2SO4 separately, then there will be no waste discharged, energy consumption will be decreased and almost no current efficiency will be lossed during recycling process. The optimun current efficiency is 76%, yield of benzaldehyde is 64%.展开更多
