The gas phase oxidation of propylene using molecular oxygen was studied on a variety of supported metal catalysts. The most promising PO activity was obtained for Cu supported on high surface area SiO(2) and the multimetallic systems exhibit synergistic effects that increased the desired PO yield by several folds for Ag promoted with Cu on SiO(2) after screening a large number of catalysts by a high throughput testing technique.

Epoxidation of Propene by High-Throughput Screening Method Over Combinatorially Prepared Cu Catalysts Supported on High and Low Surface Area Silica
Duzenli, Derya; ŞEKER, EROL; Senkan, Selim; Önal, Işık (2012-10-01)
Gas phase epoxidation of propene using molecular oxygen was studied by use of a high-throughput testing technique. A large number of catalysts including promoted and un-promoted Cu were synthesized in a much faster combinatorial fashion using a sol-gel method. Metal catalysts supported on high and low surface area silica were tested and ranked in a high-throughput activity and selectivity testing apparatus at different experimental conditions such as reaction temperature and reactant gas ratio. The amount o...
Activated carbon-tungstophosphoric acid catalysts for the synthesis of tert-amyl ethyl ether (TAEE)
Obali, Zeynep; Doğu, Timur (2008-05-01)
Catalytic activities of bulk tungstophosphoric acid (HPW) and its supported forms on activated carbon were investigated in the vapor phase etherification reaction of isoamylene with ethanol in a continuous flow reactor. Tungstophosphoric acid (H3PW12O40 center dot 11H(2)O) was supported on activated carbon having a surface area of 796 m(2)/g, at two different loading levels (25% and 31%) by aqueous impregnation technique and the kinetic experiments were done in a temperature range between 353 and 370 K. Sup...
Adsorption calorimetry in supported catalyst characterization: Adsorption structure sensitivity on Pt/-gamma-Al2O3
Üner, Deniz (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-15)
In this study, the structure sensitivity of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon monoxide adsorption was investigated by changing the metal particle size of Pt/Al2O3 catalysts. The 2% Pt/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness method; the particle size of the catalysts was modified by calcining at different temperatures. The differential heats of adsorption of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and oxygen were measured using a SETARAM C80 Tian-Calvet calorimeter. Hydrogen chemisorption sites with low and intermedi...
Adsorption calorimetry in supported catalyst characterization : adsorption structure sensitivity on pt(y-Al2o3
Üner, Murat; Üner, Deniz; Department of Chemical Engineering (2004)
In this study, the structure sensitivity of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon monoxide adsorption was investigated by changing the metal particle size of Pt/Al2O3 catalysts. 2 % Pt/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness method; the particle size of the catalysts was manipulated by calcining at different temperatures. The dispersion values for the catalysts calcined in air at 683K, 773K and 823K were measured as 0.62, 0.20 and 0.03 respectively. The differential heats of adsorption of hydrogen, carbon ...
Valence-shell electron energy-loss spectra of formic acid and acetic acid
Ari, T; Guven, MH (2000-01-01)
Gas phase optical absorption spectra of formic acid and acetic acid in the energy ranges 5.0-11.3 and 4.4-11.3 eV, respectively, have been previously recorded. It is generally agreed that of the four successive bands observed in the spectra of these compounds, the first corresponds to n --> pi* transition. However, various assignments have been proposed for the following three bands. In the present study, electron energy-loss spectra of formic acid and acetic acid vapours at 70 eV impact energy and 0 degree...
