Dialkyl titanium complexes that contain a sulfur-linked bis(phenolato) ligand:

2002

Abstract The sulfur-linked bis(phenol) 2,2′-thiobis(2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), tbmpH2, reacted cleanly with titanium tetrachloride to give the orange titanium dichloro complex [Ti(tbmp)Cl2]2 in virtually quantitative yield. Reaction of the dichloro complex [Ti(tbmp)Cl2]2 with methyllithium at low temperature gave the unexpectedly thermally robust, yellow dimethyl complex [Ti(tbmp)Me2]. The reaction of the dichloro complex with benzyl Grignard reagent in pentane afforded the highly crystalline dibenzyl complex [Ti(tbmp)(CH2Ph)2] as a 1,4-dioxane adduct. The single crystal X-ray crystallography revealed a centrosymmetric 1,4-dioxane-bridged molecule that contains two fragments containing s…

Nickel oxide supported on porous clay heterostructures as selective catalysts for the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane

2016

[EN] Porous clay heterostructures (PCH) have shown to be highly efficient supports for nickel oxide in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane. Thus NiO supported on silica with a PCH structure shows productivity towards ethylene three times higher than if NiO is supported on a conventional silica. This enhanced productivity is due to the increase in the catalytic activity and especially to the drastic increase in the selectivity to ethylene. Additionally, PCH silica partially modified with titanium in the columns (PCH-Ti) have also been synthesized and used as supports for NiO. An enhanced activity and selectivity to ethylene was found over NiO supported over PCH-Ti compared to the corresp…

The effect of the comonomer on the copolymerization of ethylene with long chain α-olefins using Ziegler–Natta catalysts supported on MgCl2(THF)2

2000

Abstract The effect of the type of the comonomer (1-pentene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene and 1-dodecene) on the copolymerization of ethylene with α-olefin over vanadium (VOCl3 and VCl4) and titanium (TiCl4) catalysts supported on MgCl2(THF)2 and activated by Et2AlCl was studied. The results show that the introduction of a longer α-olefin in the ethylene polymerization feed depresses the catalytic activity of all investigated catalysts. The catalyst activity does not depend on the type of the comonomer applied but changes with the comonomer concentration in the feed. The incorporation of α-olefin in the polymer chain was found to be dependent on the type and concentration of the comonomer i…

Titanium complexes having chelating diaryloxo ligands bridged by tellurium and their catalytic behavior in the polymerization of ethylene

2000

A series of titanium complexes having tellurium-bridged chelating bis(aryloxo) ligands, [TiX2{2,2‘-Te(4-R-6-R‘-C6H2O)2}]2 (5b, X = Cl, R = Me, R‘ = tBu; 6a, X = OiPr, R = R‘ = H; 6b, X = OiPr, R = Me, R‘ = tBu), were prepared. 5b and 6b were determined by X-ray crystallography to have chloro- and isopropoxo-bridged dimeric structures. The structural data for these complexes indicated that the Ti−Te coordination bonds were stronger than the similar Ti−S coordination bonds in the corresponding sulfur-bridged complexes. The reaction of (C5R5)TiCl3 (R = H, Me) with 2,2‘-Te(4-R-6-R‘-C6H2OLi)2 gave monocyclopentadienyl derivatives, (C5R5)TiCl{2,2‘-Te(4-Me-6-tBu-C6H2O)2} (7, R = H; 8, R = Me). The…

Polymerization of ethylene by oxide-supported titanium halide catalyst: kinetic model with a deactivation of active species

2000

Abstract The effect of the calcination temperature of alumina, which was then used as a support for a titanium halide catalyst [TiCl4/Et2AlCl], on the catalyst activity in ethylene polymerization was investigated. α-Al2O3 was found to make a more advantageous catalyst support as compared to γ-Al2O3 despite the fact that the former offered a clearly lower specific surface area and its content of surface OH groups was inferior. The ethylene polymerization in the presence of the catalytic system on different alumina supports was investigated on the basis of a proposed kinetic model, taking into consideration the deactivation of active sites in the process. The improved activity was found to re…

Vanadium complex with tetradentate [O,N,N,O] ligand supported on magnesium type carrier for ethylene homopolymerization and copolymerization

2009

Immobilization of 1,2-cyclohexylenebis(5-chlorosalicylideneiminato)vanadium dichloride on the magnesium support obtained in the reaction of MgCl 2 .3.4EtOH with Et 2 AlCl gives a highly active precursor for ethylene homopolymerization and its copolymerization with 1-octene. This catalyst exhibits the highest activity in conjunction with MAO, but it is also highly active with AlMe 3 as a cocatalyst. On the other hand, when combined with chlorinated alkylaluminum compounds, Et 2 AlCl and EtAlCl 2 , it gives traces of polyethylene. Moreover, its catalytic activity is strongly affected by the reaction temperature: it increased with rising polymerization temperature from 20 °C to 60 °C, The kine…

Extraction and immediate placement of root analogue zirconia implants: an overview

2011

Dental implants constitute a well-established approach for replacement of lost teeth with titanium being the most favored material for implantation. However, titanium has its limitations in esthetically demanding cases and neither the form nor material of such implants has changed much over the past 40 years. Immediate implantation has been introduced to overcome the disadvantages of conventional implantation which in turn has many disadvantages owing to the incongruence of the implant to the extraction socket. Today, there is scientific evidence that zirconia dental implants osseointegrate well and offer many advantages over titanium implants. The successful use of zirconia ceramics in ort…

Design of Numerical Simulations of Linear Friction Welding Processes: Issues and Difficulties

2015

In this paper, a critical analysis of the technical difficulties and numerical issues in running simulations of linear friction welding processes is carried out. The focus of the paper is the comparison of different modeling strategies of a numerical analysis for the LFW process of Ti-6Al- 4V titanium alloy, for which the thermal aspect strongly influences the mechanical behavior due to the phase transformation, taking place over a definite range of temperature. A 3D simulation campaign, conducted using the FEA code DEFORM™, was considered in order to show advantages and disadvantages of each approach, including the most critic limitations and complexity in a correct simulation design using…

Micro and macro mechanical characterization of friction stir welded Ti–6Al–4V lap joints through experiments and numerical simulation

2013

Abstract Lap joints of Ti–6Al–4V were produced and the effect of the main process parameters was studied through macro and micro investigations highlighting mechanical resistance, microhardness profiles, grain size and phase distributions. A dedicated numerical model was used to link the input process parameters to temperature and strain distributions and to the final microstructure in the welded joint. It is found that the strain produced in the stir zone by proper combination of process parameters plays a fundamental role in the final microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints.
