CATALYTIC OXIDATION OF ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL OVER PLATINUM BASED CATALYST: A STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF METHYL CELLULOSE ON Pt PARTICLES DISPERSION OVER MULLITE

“…It is noteworthy to mention that the temperature at which the CO 2 formation arises are shifted to 150 °C for Pt/α-Al 2 O 3 and Pt/Al 6 Si 2 O 13 (MC) and to 200 °C for Pt/Al 6 Si 2 O 13 and Pt/SiO 2 . According to many authors, this shift could be explained by the formation of acetone at low temperatures (Centeno et al, 2002;Scirè et al, 2003;Tu et al, 2012). In addition, 100 % of CO 2 selectivity can be reached at approximately 500 °C for Pt/α-Al 2 O 3 and Pt/Al 6 Si 2 O 13 (MC).…”

The variation of cationic microstructure in Mn-doped spinel ferrite during calcination and its effect on formaldehyde catalytic oxidation

“…The substitution of Fe sites in spinel structure promotes the Fe 3+ ↔ Fe 2+ redox couple and accordingly the redox properties of ferrites. From previous studies [16][17][18][19][20], the dopants (Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) modified the catalytic activity of ferrites. Recently, Mn substitution in spinel ferrite has been found greatly improving the catalytic activity in HCHO oxidation [21], as evidenced by the obvious decrease of about 100 • C in both the temperatures of 90% HCHO conversion and 90% CO 2 generation.…”

Pristine coconut husk biowaste and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate/methyl acrylate-based novel oleophilic gels for oil spill cleanup

“…The literature survey also revealed the necessity for the removal of these harmful VOCs. 39–44 The selection of acrylate monomers is based on their low cost, biocompatibility, easy functionalization, 45 and very high affinity for oils and organic, aromatic, and chlorinated solvents. 46…”

“…The literature survey also revealed the necessity for the removal of these harmful VOCs. [39][40][41][42][43][44] The selection of acrylate monomers is based on their low cost, biocompatibility, easy functionalization, 45 and very high affinity for oils and organic, aromatic, and chlorinated solvents. 46 Based on the above observations, the main objective of the present study is the functionalization of pristine coconut husk with ethylhexyl acrylate (EHA) and methyl acrylate (MA) using the free radical polymerization technique with potassium persulfate (KPS)-N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as an initiator-crosslinker system for use in oil cleanup application.…”
