Solid State Synthesis and Characterization of Model Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts
Solid-state reactions of elemental sulfur with metallic cobalt and molybdenum powders were used to synthesize model catalysts for hydrodesulfurization (HDS). The resulting materials had a general stoichiometry of CozlMo,-,S2 with x between 0.025 and 0.3. The solid phases formed during synthesis and after exposure to typical HDS reaction conditions were identified by X-ray diffraction and select...
متن کاملUnderstanding the structure of nanocatalysts with high resolution scanning/transmission electron microscopy
Nanomaterials including nanoparticles, nanowires and nanotubes play an important role in heterogeneous catalysis. Thanks to the rapid improvement of the electron microscopic techniques and with the advent of aberration corrected electron microscopy as well as theoretical methodologies, the potential effects induced by nanocatalysts are better understood than before by unravelling their atomic s...
متن کاملCharacterization of Copper-Manganese Oxide Catalysts and Their Precursors: Effect of Precipitate Aging upon the Structure and Morphology of Precursors and Catalysts
Copper-manganese oxide catalysts are prepared with an atomic ratio of Cu/Mn=2/1 using a coprecipitation procedure under air atmosphere. The time of aging, i.e., the time that precipitate remains in contact with the precipitating medium, has been varied from 0 (for unaged precursor) to 300 minutes and the effect of precipitate aging time in each atmosphere upon the structure and morphology of di...
متن کاملTiO2-ZrO2 Binary Oxides for Effective Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts
Titania-zirconia mixed oxide was developed as support for Mo, CoMo and NiMo catalysts. Synthesis was carried out using evaporation induced self assembly and modified sol-gel templating route. The samples were calcined in a temperature range of 400C to 600C. SEM and porosity analyses were used to ensure that the mesostructure is stable after Mo and promoter incorporation. Wide-angle XRD was used...
متن کاملMetal-sulfides and oxides on Au(111): From catalysis on nanoparticles to electronic structure of epitaxial 2D materials
We pursue the goal of providing fundamental atomistic understanding of metal oxide and metal sulfide nanostructures supported on metal substrates. Such systems are important as model systems for heterogeneous catalysts and allow better understanding of epitaxial 2D materials, such as MoS2 in contact with a metal. By focusing on what happens on the atomiclevel we can for example evaluate the rol...
