in the present work, a titanium-based ziegler-natta catalyst was employed to synthesize ultra molecular weight polyethylene in a slurry medium. the effect of different parameters such as ethylene pressure, temperature, catalyst composition, and hydrogen pressure was studied. as the results indicate, increasing either [al]/[ti] ratio or temperature causes polymerization rate to go through a maxi...

The accelerated photocatalytic degradation of industrial wastewater using titanium dioxide as catalyst activated by ultrasound has been investigated in photocatalytic reactor using ultraviolet light source of 125 W. The effect of number of parameters, such as pH, oxidant concentration and catalyst dose has been examined to study the degradation rates in sonolytic, photocatalytic and sonophotoca...

A new zeotype titanium silicate oxidation catalyst with the STT topology has been synthesized from direct synthesis. Ti-STT has a microporous structure with small pore openings, allowing shape selective oxidation catalysis. The isomorphous substitution of Si by Ti in the framework has been confirmed by Raman, FT-IR, UV-VIS and XANES spectroscopies.

Titanium dioxide was applied as an immobilized photocatalyst in a microstructured falling film reactor for the continuous-flow C–H arylation of heteroarenes with aryldiazonium salts as the starting material. Detailed investigations of the catalyst and a successful long-term run proved its excellent usability for this process. Very good yields up to 99% were achieved with broad substrate scope a...

The titanium complex Cp[1,3-(2',6'-Me2C6H3)2(CH2N)2C=N]Ti(CH2Ph)2, with a monoanionic eta 1-iminoimidazolidide ancillary ligand, is shown to be a highly efficient catalyst for olefin polymerisation when activated with the Lewis acid B(C6F5)3.

Ultrafine ruthenium–titanium oxide catalysts were directly produced using a continuous hydrothermal flow synthesis process and assessed as chloride oxidation catalysts. Selectivity towards chlorine (over oxygen) evolution was shown to generally increase with decreasing ruthenium content. The optimum catalyst was then used to make an anode for a light-driven brine-splitting demonstrator device t...

A titanium-catalyzed cis-hydroalumination of propargylic amines with Red-Al is described, which provides an efficient way to produce Z-configured allylic amines in good to excellent yields with high stereoselectivity and good regioselectivity. The hydride-bridged Al/Ti bimetallic species may act as a real catalyst in this reaction.

The titanium-BINOLate-catalyzed, highly enantioselective ring-opening reaction of meso-aziridines has been developed which furnishes trans-1,2-diamines in typically good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. N-Aryl aziridines attached to a 5- or 6-membered carbocyclic ring are among the best substrates for this process providing the products in up to >99% ee. The chiral catalyst is easily ...

Photocatalytic degradation of chemical pollutants in water was investigated using semiconductor oxide catalysts, zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) and phenol as the substrate. Influence of various parameters such as characteristics of the catalyst, irradiation time, substrate and catalyst concentrations, pH etc. has been studied and optimum conditions for the complete degradation of ...
