Catalysts based on zirconia- and alumina-supported tungsten oxides (15 wt % W) with a small loading of platinum (0.3 Pt) were selected to study the influence reduction temperature nature support hydroisomerization n-dodecane. The has major metal dispersion, which impacts catalytic activity. In addition, alumina zirconia supports show different properties (mainly acid site strength surface area)...

A continuous flow apparatus was applied to measure the phase equilibrium at 523 K and 573 K. The performance of analysed with determination vapor pressures water temperatures ( T = 453 473 K). measured deviated from literature values less than 1 %. Vapor n -dodecane, -hexadecane phenol were 523–623 K) and, bubble point -dodecane + pure components compared values. Relative pressure value 2 % for...

Mechanoluminescence (ML, also known as triboluminescence or fractoluminescence) is the emission of light due to the application of mechanical stress to a crystal.1 This light is the result of a dielectric breakdown of the intervening gas and the crystal caused by internal electrification at the fracture plane of a piezoelectric crystal. When ML is induced by such mechanical means as grinding, s...

RAFT-mediated polymerisation-induced self-assembly (PISA) is used to prepare six types of amphiphilic block copolymer nanoparticles which were subsequently evaluated as putative Pickering emulsifiers for the stabilisation of n-dodecane-in-water emulsions. It was found that linear poly(glycerol monomethacrylate)-poly(2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate) (PGMA-PHPMA) diblock copolymer spheres and worms ...

Abstract. Vehicular exhaust is one of the important contribution sources secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in urban areas. Long-chain alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons are included gaseous pollutants vehicle emissions, representative diesel gasoline vehicles respectively. In this work, SOA production from individual anthropogenic volatile compounds (AVOCs) (n-dodecane, 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene) mix...
