in this research different types of al2o3 were used as supports to prepare catalysts for dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene. these supports were al2o3 from merck, axen and gamma al2o3 synthesized from al(oh)3. sn/pt/al2o3 catalysts were prepared by sequential impregnation, at first pt and then sn was deposited. characterization of catalysts was performed by x-ray powder diffraction (xrd)...

This review focuses on the chemical methods used to prepare supported bimetallic heterogeneous catalysts, i.e., bimetallic nanoparticles deposited on a support. The review is limited to the preparation of gold-based bimetallic catalysts and moreover to bimetallic nanoparticles supported on powder inorganic supports, i.e., on the surface or in the porosity, and not on model supports such as sing...

Dealloyed Pt core-shell nanoparticles constitute the most active and stable bimetallic oxygen reduction catalysts for low-temperature fuel cells. Here, we review recent advances on their preparation, structural characterization, and electrocatalytic performance. Starting with bimetallic metal overlayer model systems, for which we illustrate fundamental principles of the ORR activity enhancement...

We have prepared supported gold, palladium and gold–palladium bimetallic catalysts by the physical mixing of the acetate salts of the metals followed by a simple heat treatment. The use of the acetates as the metal precursor eliminates chloride from the catalyst preparation step. Extensive characterisation shows the formation of bimetallic alloy particles. These catalysts are extremely active f...

A detailed study on the preparation of bimetallic PtSn/C catalysts using surface-controlled synthesis methods, and on their catalytic performance in the glycerol steam reforming reaction has been carried out. In order to obtain these well-defined bimetallic phases, techniques derived from Surface Organometallic Chemistry on Metals (SOMC/M) were used. The preparation process involved the reactio...

Introduction The preparation and characterization of nanophase materials has received considerable attention in recent years, given their potential for improved performance as catalysts, high-strength materials, and semiconductor devices. For example, a recent breakthrough by Sun et al. (1) in the synthesis of highly-dispersed, silica-supported iron-platinum (FePt) bimetallic nanoclusters of co...

The effect of transition metal doping on Pt/Al2O3 catalyst used in propane dehydrogenation reaction at 500 ̊C was studied. The preparation methods investigated were sequential impregnation (Pt followed by the 2 metal or the 2 metal followed by Pt) and co-impregnation. The metal contents of these catalysts were fixed as the weight ratio of Pt per the 2 metal of around 0.075. These catalysts were ...

Pd/C and CoPd/C heterogeneous catalysts have been synthesized by adopting Charge Enhanced Dry Impregnation (CEDI). The particles size distribution, their high metal surface-to-bulk ratios, and synthesis feasibility are unmatchable to any known noble metal bimetallic heterogeneous catalyst preparation techniques. Next generation Fuel Cells and Fischer-Tropsch catalytic processes economy will be ...

Pt monometallic and Pt-Co bimetallic catalysts have been prepared on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) with and without HNO3 treatment. The HNO3 treatment introduced oxygen containing groups (OCGs), which affect both the structure and activity of the catalyst. The introduction of OCGs does not affect the structure of Pt monometallic catalysts but increased the dispersion in the bimetallic c...
