in internal combustion engines, only about a third of the total fuel input energy is converted into useful work. if the energy rejected into the cooling system and the exhaust gases could be recovered instead and put into useful work, fuel economy would have been substantially improved. the main aim of this research paper was to evaluate the effects of the hybrid nano-catalyst containing cerium...

In this study, molybdenum-copper/alumina nano composite was synthesized with mechano-chemical method using high energy planetary ball milling. The molybdenum oxide, copper oxide and aluminum powder were used as starting materials and reaction appeared to occur through a rapid combustion reaction process. The evaluation of powder particles after different milling times was studied by X-ray diffr...

The use of UHMWPE has attracted the attention of many researchers and industries. The aim of the present work is to fabricate UHMWPE/MoS2-Oxide nano-composites using in-situ polymerization. For this purpose, modified molybdenum disulfide was used. In order to perform the polymerization, a Ziegler-Natta catalytic system, with MoS2-Oxide and magnesium Ethoxide as support, was used. In order to fa...

in this study the synthesis of molybdenum oxide nano-whiskers with circular cross-section is performed. in some areas, it was observed that also some whiskers have open tips exhibiting their hollow structures. these whiskers have side dimensions ranging 2-5 μm with an average diameter in the nanometer rang. the structure suggested the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism (vls). scanning elect...

this paper focused on a simple approach for synthesis of molybdenum oxide (moo3) nanoparticles and reports a facile route for synthesis of such nanoparticles, using microwave irradiation as a homogenous and powerful source of heating, using ethylene glycol as the solvent and heating medium. for more investigations, besides microwave heating, the obtained solutions were also treated by conventio...

We study the selective catalytic oxidation of ethanol with air as a sustainable alternative route to acetaldehyde. The reaction is catalysed by molybdenum oxide supported on titania, in a flow reactor under ambient pressure. High selectivity to acetaldehyde (70%-89%, depending on the Mo loading) is obtained at 150 °C. Subsequently, we investigate the structure/performance relationship for vario...
