Structural Characterization of Electron Donors in Ziegler–Natta Catalysts
Ziegler-Natta catalysis is a very important industrial process for the production of polyolefins. However, the catalysts are not well-understood at the molecular level. Yet, atomic-scale structural information is of pivotal importance for rational catalyst development. We applied a solid-state NMR/density functional theory tandem approach to gain detailed insight into the interactions between t...
متن کاملLow-Dose Imaging Techniques for Transmission Electron Microscopy
Transmission electron microscopes have the ability to visualize almost any specimen at the nanoscale. Unfortunately, modified imaging protocols are needed when samples are composed predominantly of low atomic number elements. In this chapter we review several methods that are currently employed to mitigate the adverse effects caused by electron irradiation to materials at the interface of biolo...
متن کاملHigh-resolution low-dose scanning transmission electron microscopy.
During the past two decades instrumentation in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has pushed toward higher intensity electron probes to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of recorded images. While this is suitable for robust specimens, biological specimens require a much reduced electron dose for high-resolution imaging. We describe here protocols for low-dose STEM image recording...
متن کاملQuadrupolar nutation NMR to discriminate central and satellite transitions: Spectral assignments for a Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
In this contribution we used solid state 35Cl (I=3/2) quadrupolar NMR to study a MgCl2/2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dimethoxypropane (DMDOMe) adduct that serves as a model system for Ziegler-Natta catalysis. Employing large Radio-Frequency (RF) field strengths we observe three spectral features with strongly varying line widths. The assignment of the spectra is complicated because of the large difference i...
متن کاملScanning transmission low-energy electron microscopy
We discuss an extension to the transmission mode of the cathode-lens-equipped scanning electron microscope, enabling operation down to the lowest energies of electrons. Penetration of electrons through free-standing ultrathin films is examined along the full energy scale, and the contribution of the secondary electrons (SEs), released near the bottom surface of the sample, is shown, enhancing t...
