Towards Understanding Structure-Activity Relationships of Ni-Mo-W Sulfide Hydrotreating Catalysts

Structure–activity relationships in supported Au catalysts

Au-based catalysts have great potential because of their unique activity and selectivity for a variety of important reactions. The special catalytic properties of supported Au nano-particles depend critically upon the particle morphology, i.e. size, shape and thickness, as well as support effects. This paper reviews the current understanding of CO oxidation on supported Au catalysts. The electr...

Regeneration of Hydrotreating and FCC Catalysts

Nanostructured hydrotreating catalysts for electrochemical hydrogen evolution.

Progress in catalysis is driven by society's needs. The development of new electrocatalysts to make renewable and clean fuels from abundant and easily accessible resources is among the most challenging and demanding tasks for today's scientists and engineers. The electrochemical splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen has been known for over 200 years, but in the last decade and motivated b...

Structure-radical scavenging activity relationships of hydroxytoluene derivatives

Research works proposed that radical scavenging activity of flavonoids is due to ring B, andthe remaining part of the molecule can be disregarded. Thus the objective of this work is toobserve whether hydroxytoluenes account the radical scavenging activity of flavonoid and toestablish structural requirements for their activity (as they showed appreciable activity) andelucidate a comprehensive me...

Design of ultrathin Pt-Mo-Ni nanowire catalysts for ethanol electrooxidation

Developing cost-effective, active, and durable electrocatalysts is one of the most important issues for the commercialization of fuel cells. Ultrathin Pt-Mo-Ni nanowires (NWs) with a diameter of ~2.5 nm and lengths of up to several micrometers were synthesized via a H2-assisted solution route (HASR). This catalyst was designed on the basis of the following three points: (i) ultrathin NWs with h...
