CVD preparation of alumina-supported tungsten nitride and its activity for thiophene hydrodesulfurization

Cathode catalysts for fuel cell development: A theoretical study based on band structure calculations for tungsten nitride and cobalt tungsten nitrides

“…These transition metal carbide catalysts were not suitable as cathode catalysts. On the other hand, we have studied transition metal nitrides catalysts for hydrogenation, hydrodesulfurization and hydrodenitrogenation [5][6][7]. The transition metal nitrides are chemically inert in acidic solution which is one of the important factors of a cathode catalyst.…”

Oxide Foams for the Synthesis of High‐Surface‐Area Vanadium Nitride Catalysts

“…In particular, compounds such as W 2 N or Mo 2 N have attracted attention as catalysts for hydrotreating reactions. [8][9][10] In oxidation, hydrogenation, or isomerization reactions, the catalytic properties of the transition-metal nitrides and carbides resemble those of the group VIII noble metals. [4,5] Thus, transition-metal nitrides and carbides may offer a promising economic alternative to conventional noble-metal catalysts.…”

The feasibility of synthesis tungsten nitride in magnesium‐tungsten oxide‐melamine ternary system via mechanochemical method

“…Tungsten nitride was synthesized on g-alumina pellet and quartz plate using the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method in a stream of tungsten chloride, ammoniac, hydrogen and argon gases at 700 8C under reduced pressure [7]. Tungsten nitride was also prepared from tungstic acid via the temperature programmed reaction (TPR) with ammonia [8].…”
