Metal Carbides for Biomass Valorization
Transition metal carbides have been utilized as an alternative catalyst to expensive noble metals for the conversion of biomass. Tungsten and molybdenum carbides have been shown to be effective catalysts for hydrogenation, hydrodeoxygenation and isomerization reactions. The satisfactory activities of these metal carbides and their low costs, compared with noble metals, make them appealing alter...
متن کاملCemented Carbides – a Success Story
After WW2, a huge market opened in the growing economies and cemented carbides contributed as tool materials and construction parts to their industrial development. Today, cemented carbides are the workhorses in all areas of the manufacturing industries: no factory without cemented carbide tools; no production of glass bottles, aluminium cans or plastic tubes which has not benefited from these ...
متن کاملThermal conductivity behavior of boron carbides.
Knowledge of the thermal conductivity of boron carbide is necessary o evaluate its potential for high temperature thermoelectric energy conversion applications. We have measured the thermal diffusivity of hot -pressed boron carbide B1_xCx samples as a function of composition (0.1 < x < 0.2), temperature (300 K to 1700 K) and temperature cycling. These data in concert with density and specific h...
متن کاملInvestigation of exotic stable calcium carbides using theory and experiment
It is well known that pressure causes profound changes in the properties of atoms and chemical bonding, leading to the formation of many unusual materials. Here we systematically explore all stable calcium carbides at pressures from ambient to 100 GPa using variable-composition evolutionary structure predictions using the USPEX code. We find that Ca5C2, Ca2C, Ca3C2, CaC, Ca2C3 and CaC2 have sta...
متن کاملTransition Metal Carbides and Nitrides in Energy Storage and Conversion
High-performance electrode materials are the key to advances in the areas of energy conversion and storage (e.g., fuel cells and batteries). In this Review, recent progress in the synthesis and electrochemical application of transition metal carbides (TMCs) and nitrides (TMNs) for energy storage and conversion is summarized. Their electrochemical properties in Li-ion and Na-ion batteries as wel...
