New Evidence of the Enhanced Elimination of a Persistent Drug Used as a Lipid Absorption Inhibitor by Advanced Oxidation with UV-A and Nanosized Cata…
2019
This work demonstrates new evidence of the efficient destruction and mineralization of an emergent organic pollutant using UV-A and titanium nanosized catalysts. The target compound considered in this work is the primary metabolite of a lipid regulator drug, clofibrate, identified in many studies as refractory during conventional wastewater treatment. The photocatalytic performance study was carried out in batch mode at laboratory scale, in aqueous suspension. Kinetic data showed that titanium dioxide P25 Aeroxide® exhibits the highest photocatalytic efficiency compared to the other investigated catalysts. Pollutant degradation and mineralization efficiencies strongly increased when decreas…
Remarkable effect of organoaluminum activator on catalytic performance of bis(phenoxy-imine) titanium complexes in ethylene polymerization
2009
Zsyntezowano i sprawdzono w polimeryzacji etylenu, po uprzedniej aktywacji zarówno MAO, jak i prostymi związkami glinoorganicznymi (Et3Al, Et2AlCl, EtAlCl2), trzy kompleksy tytanu z ligandami fenoksy-iminowymi: dichlorek bis[N-(3,5-di-tert-butylosalicylideno)anilino]tytanu(IV) (kompleks I), dichlorek bis[N-(3,5-di-tert-butylosalicylideno)-1-naftyloamino]tytanu(IV) (kompleks II) i dichlorek bis[N-(salicylideno)-1-naftyloamino]tytanu(IV) (kompleks III). Stwierdzono, że zarówno struktura ligandów, jak i rodzaj glinoorganicznego aktywatora mają wpływ na aktywność badanych kompleksów. Kompleks I, zawierający podstawnik fenylowy przy iminowym atomie azotu okazał się najaktywniejszy w połączeniu z…
The role of polaronic states in the enhancement of CO oxidation by single-atom Pt/CeO2
2023
Single Atom Catalysts (SACs) have shown that the miniaturization of the active site implies new phenomena like dynamic charge transfer between isolated metal atoms and the oxide. To obtain direct proof of this character is challenging, as many experimental techniques provide averaged properties or have limitations with poorly conductive materials, leaving kinetic measurements from catalytic testing as the only reliable reference. Here we present an integrated Density Functional Theory-Microkinetic model including ground and metastable states to address the reactivity of Pt1/CeO2 for CO oxidation. Our results agree with experimentally available kinetic data in the literature and show that CO…
Polimeryzacja koordynacyjna alkenylosilseskwioksanów i ich kopolimeryzacja z olefinami lub styrenem
2015
Artykuł stanowi kontynuację przeglądu literatury dotyczącej koordynacyjnej polimeryzacji silseskwioksanów (POSS), zawierających zdolne do polimeryzacji wiązanie podwójne, oraz ich kopolimeryzacji głównie zolefinami, a także ze styrenem. Zastosowanie katalizatorów metalocenowych aktywowanych metyloaluminoksanem (MAO) zapewnia efektywną (ko)polimeryzację silseskwioksanów zarówno z olefinami, jak i styrenem. Wprowadzenie do materiału polimerowego komonomeru POSS korzystnie wpływa na właściwości otrzymanych produktów, które cechują się większą odpornością termiczną oraz wytrzymałością mechaniczną niż ich odpowiedniki niezawierające POSS.
Metallocenes and post-metallocenes immobilized on ionic liquid-modified silica as catalysts for polymerization of ethylene
2014
Abstract The supported ionic liquid (SIL) strategy was used for the first time to metallocene and post-metallocene heterogeneous catalysts for olefin polymerization. The metal complexes: Cp2TiCl2, Cp2ZrCl2, FI–Ti, and Sal–Ti were immobilized in the 1-(3-triethoxysilyl)propyl-3-methylimidazolium alkylchloroaluminate ionic liquid, anchored on the surface of the mesoporous amorphous silica. The SIL systems were characterized by FTIR, 29Si NMR, N2 adsorption, EA, AAS, TG, and SEM techniques. The developed supported catalytic systems were found to be active in the ethylene polymerization and produce the polyethylene of various properties.
Naturally Occurring Oxazole Structural Units as Ligands of Vanadium Catalysts for Ethylene-Norbornene (Co)polymerization
2021
1,3-Oxazole and 4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazole are common structural motifs in naturally occurring peptides. A series of vanadium complexes were synthesized using VCl3(THF)3 and methyl substituted (4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl)-1,3-oxazoles as ligands and analyzed using NMR and MS methods. The complexes were found to be active catalysts both in ethylene polymerization and ethylene-norbornene copolymerization. The position of methyl substituent in the ligand has considerable impact on the performance of (co)polymerization reaction, as well as on the microstructure, and thus physical properties of the obtained copolymers.
Titanium and Vanadium Catalysts with 2-Hydroxyphenyloxazoline and Oxazine Ligands for Ethylene-Norbornene (co)Polymerization
2019
A series of titanium and vanadium complexes with oxazoline 2-(4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl)phenol (L1), 2-(4-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl)phenol (L2), and oxazine 2-(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-yl)phenol (L3) ligands were synthesized, and their structures were determined by NMR and MS methods as (L)2MtCl2. The vanadium complexes were found to be highly active in ethylene (7300 kgPE/(molV·
Effect of catalyst composition on chain‐end‐group of polyethylene produced by salen‐type complexes of titanium, zirconium, and vanadium
2010
The chain end structures of polyethylenes produced by salen complexes of titanium, zirconium, and vanadium, activated by MAO or common alkylaluminium compounds were investigated by 1H NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. The polymerization process with the use of vanadium complexes was found to produce polymers with only vinyl end groups in practice. In the processes catalyzed by titanium and zirconium complexes activated by MAO or Et2AlCl, not only β‐hydrogen elimination and/or chain transfer to the monomer occurs but also the chain termination reaction takes place in which an organoaluminium cocatalyst is involved. That reaction proceed particularly easily in the systems: titanium complex/Et2AlCl.
A supported titanium postmetallocene catalyst: Effect of selected conditions on ethylene polymerization
2011
Ethylene polymerization with a titanium complex [N,N-ethylenebis(3-methoxysalicylideneiminato)titanium dichloride] immobilized on the magnesium support with the formula MgCl2(THF)0.32(Et2AlCl)0.36 was studied. In particular, the effects of polymerization temperature, monomer pressure, and polymerization time on the activity of the catalyst and on the polyethylene properties (molecular weight and its distribution, melting point, crystallinity, and bulk density) were evaluated. The findings of investigations prove that the studied supported titanium catalyst is highly active in ethylene polymerization, and its activity increases with increasing temperature and monomer pressure. Moreover, stab…
Transition metal complexes of tetradentate and bidentate Schiff bases as catalysts for ethylene polymerization: Effect of transition metal and cocata…
2009
This article compares catalytic performance of ethylene polymerization in similar polymerization conditions of transition metal complexes having two ligands [O,N] (phenoxy-imine) and having one tetradentate ligand [O,N,N,O] (salphen or salen). It is shown that the activity of both complex types as well as the product properties depend in the same way on the type of central metal in the complex and on the cocatalyst used. Although the type of ligand has some effect on the catalyst activity, yet it does not control the properties of the obtained products. The vanadium and zirconium complexes, irrespective of the cocatalyst used, yield linear polyethylene with high molecular weight (a few hund…
