Surface and bulk changes of a Pt 1%/Ce0.6Zr0.4O2 catalyst during CO oxidation in the absence of O2
2004
The reduction of a Pt 1%/Ce0.6Zr0.4O2 catalyst by CO in the absence of gaseous oxygen was studied by transient reactivity tests, temperature programmed surface reaction with CO, flow thermogravimetric tests and DRIFTS experiments, in order to obtain information generally on the OSC properties and, specifically, on the mechanism of CO oxidation over both, Pt catalyst and support-only sample (Ce0.6Zr0.4O2). The results of thermogravimetric experiments showed the presence of an induction time in the weight change % of the catalyst, depending on the CO concentration in the gas flow. This induction time could be related to the presence of two oxygen reactive sites. The first one leads to strongl…
Time-resolved rheology as a tool to monitor the progress of polymer degradation in the melt state – Part II: Thermal and thermo-oxidative degradation…
2015
Abstract Thermal and thermo-oxidative degradation of nanocomposites based on polyamide 11 (PA11) and organo-modified clay (Cloisite® 30B) are studied in the melt state (T = 215 °C) via time-resolved mechanical spectroscopy (TRMS). The goal is assessing the potentiality of rheological analysis for studying polymer degradation in complex systems such as polymer nanocomposites, whose rheological response stems from the combination of the contributions of polymer and nanoparticles. We prove that a thorough analysis grounded on TRMS allows to isolate the effect of degradation of the polymer matrix, whose progress can be hence profitably monitored. Essentially the same degradation mechanisms as i…

Bei der Polymerisation von Trioxan bei 70°C in der Schmelze mit HClO4 · H2O als Initiator nimmt die Bruttopolymerisationsgeschwindigkeit exponentiell mit steigender Wasserkonzentration ab; gleichzeitig nimmt die Lange der Induktionszeit entsprechend zu. Die Retardierung durch Wasser wird auf eine Hydratation aktiver Zentren zuruckgefuhrt. Wasser ist ein wirkungsvoller Polymerisationsubertrager; seine relative Ubertragungskonstante betragt bei 25°C in Methylenchlorid ca. 2,6. Jedoch werden die Verhaltnisse durch die Bildung von Methylenglykol aus Wasser und Formaldehyd kompliziert. In polymerization of trioxane in the melt at 70°C. with HClO4 · H2O as initiator the rate of polymerization dec…
