The catalyst was prepared by seeding method and characterized by XRD, N-2 sorption, FTIR pyridine adsorption, NH3-TPD and SEM. Powder XRD of AlMCM-41/Beta zeolite composite material showed the co-existence of well-structured microporous and mesophase of AlMCM-41. The typical textural characteristics of micro- and meso-structured phases were observed in the composite material. The effect of temperature, reactant molar ratios and catalyst weight on 1-dodecene conversion and products selectivity was studied. The composite catalyst was found to be the highly selective towards the formation 2-dodecylbenzene. Under the reaction conditions of 120 degrees C, benzene/1-dodecene molar ratio 10 and time 2h, the catalyst gave 48% dodecene conversion with 76%, 2-dodecylbenzene selectivity. Significant improvement in catalytic activity has been achieved by composite material as compared to Al-MCM-41. Although zeolite beta and composite material gave similar conversion of dodecene, the composite material showed higher selectivity towards 2-dodecylbenzene, which could be due to higher diffusibility of 2-dodecylbenzene isomer in the composite material.

The acylation of anisole with the long chain acids produced mainly the ketone (4-methoxy phenyl alkyl ketone) and small amounts of the ester (phenyl alkanoate). The results revealed the reaction to be influenced by the type of zeolite and its Si/Al ratio (acidity) besides the chain length (carbon number) of the carboxylic acid. In the acylation of anisole with hexanoic acid, the activity of the zeolites increased with dealumination as it led to the generation of mesopores that resulted in a decrease in diffusion resistance of the zeolites. The reactivity of the acids in the acylation reaction was found to decrease with increase in the carbon number. The experimental data have been fitted into a pseudo first order kinetic model.

The influence of synthesis time, molar ratios of CTAOH/SiO2 in dry gel and the water content at the bottom of autoclave on the quality and formation of mesophases has been investigated. Powder XRD, N-2 adsorption-desorption, TEM and hydrothermal stability test were the techniques used for sample characterization. Keeping molar ratio of CTAOH/SiO2 constant, shorter synthesis time, lower unit cell parameter and d spacing were observed when steam assisted dry gel conversion method was employed in place of conventional hydrothermal method.

These catalysts were also evaluated for the first time for hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,2 propanediol (1,2-PDO) in a batch reactor under 52 bar H-2 pressure in the temperature range of 473-513 K conditions. The fly ash pretreated by alkali using the fusion method and impregnated with Cu showed higher activity and stability for glycerol hydrogenolysis. Due to pretreatment with alkali at high temperature, transformation of alpha-quartz to the tridymite phase of SiO2 occurred. More importantly, use of alkali either during the pretreatment or the Cu loading step resulted in a high dispersion on the surface which was responsible for higher glycerol conversion and 1,2-PDO selectivity. The effects of temperature, Cu loading and solvent on glycerol conversion and product selectivities were also studied in this work. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

The changes in the phase formation, morphology, crystallite size, extent of aggregation, strength and nature of acid sites were observed due to variations in precipitating agents and also their order of addition. The catalyst prepared by co-precipitation using Na2CO3 showed the predominant presence of metallic Cu phase with a crystallite size of 5 nm, well segregated spherical morphology and highest acidity in the activated sample. These intrinsic properties contributed to achieve the highest glycerol conversion of 62% and 1,2-PDO selectivity of 88% in glycerol hydrogenolysis. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

For comparison purpose, Sn-MFI molecular sieve with similar SiO2/SnO2 mole ratio was also obtained by hydrothermal crystallization route. Crystallization curves were established by conducting time dependant studies on progressive crystallization processes for both the systems. The values of activation energy of nucleation (E-n), activation energy of crystallization (E-c), and their pre-exponential factors (InA(n), InA(c) respectively) were calculated from Arrhenius plots. Compared to the hydrothermal method, shorter induction period was observed when DGC method was employed. Both the E-n (49.70 kJ/mol) and E-c (52.82 kJ/mol) for DGC method were found to be lower than that of the E-n (55.70 kJ/mop and E-c (60.23 kJ/mol) for hydrothermal method. The kinetics parameters viz. K and q were derived from kinetic expressions and DGC method showed higher value of K and lower value of q compared to hydrothermal crystallization method at identical temperature. Various DGC method parameters such as water content at the bottom of autoclave and SiO2/SnO2 mole ratio have shown the influence on the kinetics of crystallization of Sn-MFI. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.

The physicochemical properties of composites were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction, N-2 adsorption-desorption measurements, transmission electron microscopy and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. It is revealed that the titanium species are dispersed as TiO2 having interaction with the surface of the support. Even at high TiO2 loading, the mesostructural feature of MCM-41 was found to be intact without pore blockages. The change in morphology of TiO2 particle was observed with increase in TiO2 loading which may be due to different environment for the growth of TiO2. The photocatalytic evaluation of composites was carried out in production of hydrogen by water splitting. Among the prepared samples, mesoporous composite containing 60 % TiO2 (MTi60) has shown the best results (0.08805 mmol of H-2/h/g of TiO2) compared to other composite photocatalysts. The catalytic performance of this sample was further enhanced (similar to 8 times) after loading 1 % Pt in water splitting (0.70161 mmol of H-2/h/g of TiO2). 1 % Pt loaded on pure TiO2 (MTi100) showed hydrogen evolution of the magnitude 0.26 mmol of H-2/h/g of TiO2.

Except anatase phase, no other crystalline phase was observed when Ti/Sn molar ratio was varied from 49 to 9 and for Sn free sample. However, further decrease in the ratio lead to the appearance of additional SnO2 phase whose peak intensities were increased with the increase in the tin content. Irrespective of tin content, all samples showed red-shift in UV-vis spectra. Moreover, samples showed Raman shift to higher vibration side from 143 cm(-1) to 147 cm(-1) indicating the doping of Sn2+ into TiO2.

For the alkali treatment, the concentration of aqueous KOH solution was changed from 0.3 to 2.8 M keeping the quantity per gram of zeolite fixed. The influence of the alkali concentration on the chemical composition, powder XRD crystallinity, morphology, basicity, and the textural properties of resultant hierarchical zeolites was investigated. Variation in the concentration of KOH solution was found to control the degree of preferential desilication with the preserved structural fingerprint of K/LTL zeolite. As a result, the generation of mesoporosity was observed along with 1) the decrease in the Si/Al ratio and percentage relative crystallinity, and 2) an increase in BET surface area and mesopore volume. 27Al MAS-NMR results showed that all the aluminum atoms present in the tetrahedral coordination after alkali treatment, which provides an elegant approach for significantly increasing the basic sites in the hierarchical zeolites. As a heterogeneous catalyst, the hierarchical K/LTL zeolites demonstrated the improved performance in the hydrogenation of xylose to xylitol as compared to the parent K/LTL zeolite. The different process parameters were assessed in order to maximize the hydrogenation activity. Among all the hierarchical zeolites, the enhanced catalytic activity was shown by the hierarchical K/LTL prepared by using 1.5 M KOH solution when it is used along with the 3.5 wt% platinum loaded γ-Al2O3 catalyst. This optimum activity may be attributed to the higher surface area, accessible basic sites, nano-sized Pt on γ-Al2O3, and the development of substantial intracrystalline mesoporosity for the enhanced molecular diffusion of reactant to and from the hierarchical zeolite with better-preserved crystallinity.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.649</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
