VO2+ and its complexes with ethylenediamine (en), acetylacetonate (acac), 2, 2’-bipyridine(bpy) ligands, immobilized within nanoreactors of Al-MCM-41 designated as VO2+/Al-MCM-41 or VOL2/Al-MCM-41, were prepared and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, BET nitrogen adsorption-desorption and chemical analysis techniques. VO2+/Al-MCM-41 and VOL2/Al-MCM-41 were found to catalyze...

The new heterogeneous catalyst based on MoO2(acac)2 immobilized on superparamagnetic nanoparticle functionalized with dendrimer was synthesized. The dendrimer with amine and sulfur functional groups offer proper positions for a strong connection between MoO2(acac)2 and support. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, ICP, TGA, SEM, TEM, and XRD. This catalyst showed hi...

With a growing interest in hydrogen as energy carrier, the efficient purification of from gaseous mixtures is very important. This paper addresses separation using Carbon Molecular Sieves Membranes (CMSM), which show an attractive combination high permeability, selectivity and stability. Supported CMSM containing various amounts aluminium have been prepared novolac acetyl acetonate (Al(acac)3) ...

ACAC), and fatty acid synthetase (FAS) were studied in male Wistar rats after a period of starvation and refeeding of diets containing 400 g glucose, or raw or cooked starches as the source of carbohydrate/kg. Starches fed included maize, potato, wheat, rice, and tapioca. 2. When compared to the responses of rats given the glucose-containing diet, rats given raw maize-or rice-starch-containing ...

A measuring method for the distribution behavior between supercritical carbon dioxide and water by a microchip was developed. A surface modification of the microchannel by dichlorodimethylsilane induced a spontaneous phase separation of the supercritical carbon dioxide and aqueous phases in the microchip. The maximum contact time of the aqueous phase to the supercritical carbon dioxide phase wa...
