In the present work, the transformation of m-xylene was studied over fresh and pre-coked HZSM-5 catalyst in a riser simulator over the temperature range of 350-500C.Significant differences were observed in both the activity and product selectivity pattern for the two forms of the catalyst. While, the fresh catalyst generally gave higher m-xylene conversion, the pre-coked catalyst produced highe...

Peroxidase enzymes are crucial in analytical chemistry owing to significant peroxide analytes and their key role hydrogen (H2O2) detection. Therefore, exploiting appropriate catalysts for the peroxidase like reactions has become achieving desired performance. Zirconium (Zr) attracted growing interest, as a safe stable potential eco-friendly catalyst various organic transformations that address ...

A triethylaluminium(TEAl)-modified Phillips ethylene polymerisation Cr/Ti/SiO2 catalyst has been developed with two distinct active regions positioned respectively in the inner core and outer shell of the catalyst particle. DRIFTS, EPR, UV-Vis-NIR DRS, STXM, SEM-EDX and GPC-IR studies revealed that the catalyst produces simultaneously two different polymers, i.e., low molecular weight linear-ch...

Developing an efficient material as a counter electrode (CE) with excellent catalytic activity, intrinsic stability, and low cost is essential for the commercial application of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Transition metal phosphides have been demonstrated outstanding multifunctional catalysts in broad range energy conversion technologies. Here, we exploited different phases iron phosphi...

this study offers an exclusive class of magnetic nanoparticles supported hyperbranched polyglycerol (mnp/hpg) that was functionalized with citric acid (mnp/hpg-ca) as a host immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. the mnp/hpg-ca/pd catalyst was fully characterized using some different techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (tga), x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microsco...

Platinum group metal-free (PGM-free) catalyst with different loadings was investigated in air breathing electrodes microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Firstly, the electrocatalytic activity towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) of the catalyst was investigated by rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) setup with different catalyst loadings. The results showed that higher loading led to an increased in ...

Abstract Multifunctional materials that are capable of facilitating multiple electrocatalytic processes highly desirable. This work reports the observation bifunctional properties for water‐splitting in layered oxides, featuring 2‐dimensional layers octahedrally coordinated transition metals separated by alkaline‐earth or rare‐earth metals. Remarkably, these able to catalyze both half‐reactions...
