Copy of: Inelastic Neutron Scattering on Activated Phyllosilicate Catalysts
We propose to study a model phyllosilicate catalyst that, upon brief thermal treatment, releases OH groups from its surface to generate pockets of coordinatively unsaturated... -
Adsorption column experiments using Norit RB3 adsorbent: Toluene-N2 mixture d...
Lab-scale adsorption column experiments were performed using steam activated carbon Norit RB3 adsorbent, in order to obtain reliable data about the adsorption of toluene using... -
Highly selective adsorptive SMOFs
In the area of metal-organic porous materials, supramolecular metal-organic frameworks (SMOFs) constitute a blooming alternative. Their examples are still relatively scarce when... -
Host-guest interactions in flexible SMOFs
In the area of metal-organic porous materials, supramolecular metal-organic frameworks (SMOFs) constitute a blooming alternative. Their examples are still scarce when compared... -
Higher resolution inspection of the hydrocarbon pool connected with the metha...
The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously via... -
Study of covalent grafting of fluorophores on double-walled carbon nanotubes
The aim of the current proposal, which is on the framework of an ILL Ph.D. project is to characterise the interactions (covalent or non-covalent) between carbon nanotubes (CNTs)... -
The adsorption of methyl proprionate on silica catalysts.
Commercial routes for the manufacture of methyl methacrylate monomer have recently been developed that involve the reaction of esters over modified silicas, which are amphoteric... -
Characterisation of intermediates in the production of eta-caprolactam
The commercially important polymer Nylon 6 is manufactured by ring-opening polymerization of eta-caprolactam. Industrially, eta-caprolactam is made by the Beckmann rearrangement... -
Influence of nanoparticle size and morphology on the relative proportions of ...
Palladium is able to dissociative absorb large quantities of hydrogen, reversibly. However, the formation and relative proportion of different phases of palladium hydride, and... -
Understanding absorption of the energetic compound 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-on...
Insensitive munitions (IM) are munitions that will not react violently to accidental insult, thus they are relatively safe to handle and store. Ongoing research into IM has led... -
IINS study of the terminating protons in the basic structural units of graphi...
Carbon blacks can be graphitised to different degrees, whereas glassy (vitreous) carbons, which are used as electrode material, in electronics and construction, and as... -
Further investigation of the methanol to gasoline reaction over ZSM-5 using INS
The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously...
