Comparison between catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted propene hydration by using supported heteropolyacid
2012
Abstract Hybrid materials have been prepared by impregnation of the heteropolyacid H 3 PW 12 O 40 on commercial TiO 2 . The polyoxometalates (POM) amount deposited was 15, 30, 50 and 70% with respect to the weight of the TiO 2 support. Moreover two samples containing a POM amount of 15, and 50% with respect to the weight of SiO 2 were also prepared for the sake of comparison. All prepared samples were efficient catalysts for the hydration of propene to 2-propanol in gas–solid regime at atmospheric pressure and at temperatures ranging between 50 and 85 °C. The study carried out on the hybrid TiO 2 based materials evidenced that, as far as the catalytic activity is concerned, exists an optimu…

Keggin heteropolyacid H3PW12O40 supported on different oxides for catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted propene hydration
2013
Catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted hydration of propene to form 2-propanol in gas–solid regime at atmospheric pressure and 85 1C were carried out by using a heteropolyacid (POM) supported on different oxides. Binary materials were prepared by impregnation of H3PW12O40 on different commercial and home prepared supports (TiO2, SiO2, WO3, ZrO2, ZnO, Al2O3). Some of the composites were active both for catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted reactions. The Keggin type POM was completely and partially degraded, when supported on ZnO and Al2O3, respectively, and these binary solids always resulted as inactive for both catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted reactions. The supported Keggin POM sp…
Role of the support on the activity of H3PW12O40 supported on SiO2 or TiO2 in Catalytic and Photocatalytic propene hydration: An EPR Study
2016
Catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted hydration of propene to 2-propanol in gas-solid regime at atmospheric pressure and 85°C were carried out by using the Keggin heteropolyacid (HPA) H3PW12O40 (PW12) supported on home prepared SiO2, WO3, TiO2 or N-doped TiO2. The HPA played the key role both in catalytic and photocatalytic reactions; however, the support strongly influenced the binary material performance. The contemporary presence of heat and UV light improved the activity of the (photo)catalysts. EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance) has been used to understand the intimate mechanism underlying the photoactivity of the supported heteropolyacid and the role played by the support.
