FePO4/SiO2 catalysts for propylene glycol oxidation

FePО4/SiO2 supported catalysts with a different content of iron phosphate are prepared. The properties of the catalyst are changed by the introduction of alkali metal compounds (Na or Cs) on its surface. The samples obtained are characterized by X-ray diffraction, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, temperatureprogrammed reduction by hydrogen, and temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia. The catalytic properties are investigated in the reaction of gas-phase propylene glycol oxidation. It is shown that the selectivity of methylglyoxal formation on the unmodified catalysts is determined by the state of the supported active component and by its reduction–oxidation ability under the action of a reaction mixture

Formation and reactivity of Cu particles on the surface of mixed copper-zirconium phosphate

Phase evolution of copper-containing zirconium phosphates during the temperature treatment up to 900 °C and formation of active Cu0 particles on the surface of these materials in H2/Ar flow were studied. The materials were characterized by XRD, TEM, TPR-H2 at different steps of treatment. Temperature increase up to 900 °C led to removal of oxygen from the CuZr4P6O24 structure with formation of Cu+-containing compounds. Materials treated by H2-containing flow at 600 °C contained Cu0 particles with sizes from 2 nm to 1 μm. Mixed copper-zirconium phosphate was shown to adsorb CO above 80 °C, while pre-reduced materials adsorbed it starting from 30 °C with formation of CO2 above 100 °C

Main routes of ethanol conversion under aerobic/anaerobic conditions over ag-containing zirconium phosphate catalyst

Background: Double metal phosphates, such as silver- and copper-zirconium phosphates, are considered promising materials for alcohol transformation to high-value chemicals (aldehydes, esters, olefins) due to high functional properties
