HDO of Methyl Palmitate over Silica-Supported Ni Phosphides: Insight into Ni/P Effect

Photocatalytic Decolorization of Methyl Orange by Silica-Supported TiO2 Composites

Immobilization of TiO2 on silica gel has been proposed to enable easy separation of the catalyst in aqueous systems after photocatalytic reaction. Our simple synthesizing method reduces production cost, and the photocatalyst could find economical application in wastewater treatment. Silica-supported TiO2 composites were prepared by molten salt method at 500, 600 and 700 °C for 60 min. The obtai...

PREPARATION OF Ni-SUPPORTED MESOPOROUS SILICA BY INTERCALATION TREATMENT

A siliceous porous material containing nickel was synthesized by means of an intercalation treatment method using a layered sodium octosilicate ilerite as a starting base material. The sodium ions between the crystalline silicate sheets in the octosilicate were exchanged for hydrogen ions in dilute hydrochloric acid, and then the basal spaces between the silicate sheets were extended by introdu...

Silica-Supported Au–Ni Catalysts for the Dehydrogenation of Propane

Inspired by previous studies on model systems, a series of silica-supported Au–Ni catalysts were prepared and tested for the conversion of propane in the presence of hydrogen. The Au–Ni/SiO2 catalysts were prepared by successive impregnation, i.e. Ni was deposited first followed by Au. TEM/EDX results confirmed the presence of bimetallic Au–Ni nanoparticles. The dehydrogenation of propane to pr...

The effect of methyl palmitate on treatment of experimental asthma.

OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of methyl palmitate on murine model of chronic asthma. METHODS The experimental study was conducted in the animal laboratory of DokuzEylul University, Turkey, from October to December, 2012, and comprised BALB/c mice whowere divided into four equal groups: three experimental and one control group. All groups except the control group were sensitised and chall...
