Spheroidization of silver ethylene oxidation catalyst particles as induced by $gamma$-irradiation.

TL;DR: Following γ-irradiation and then exposure of a supported silver catalyst to ethylene and O2 at 280 °C, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals spheroidization of the silver particles, a phenomenon not observed in the absence of pre-radiation as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of γ irradiation upon catalytic selectivity. II: The role of Ca in the Ag catalyzed oxidation of ethylene

TL;DR: In this article, calcium, present within supported Ag apparently as distinct oxide phase inclusions, is shown to be a necessary ingredient to cause yield of ethylene oxide enhancement due to pre-irradiation of said catalyst with γ rays in the presence of air.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alteration of Catalyst Surface Composition induced by γ-Irradiation

TL;DR: Carberry et al. as discussed by the authors employed ESCA to determine whether or not pre-irradiation altered the chemical composition of the silver catalyst surface and reported changes in the surface chemical composition.
