Journal ArticleDOI
Use of DFT to achieve a rational understanding of acid–basic properties of γ-alumina surfaces
TL;DR: Digne et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated acid-basic properties of three relevant γ-alumina surfaces, taking into account the temperature-dependent hydroxyl surface coverages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxyl Groups on γ-Alumina Surfaces: A DFT Study
Mathieu Digne,Mathieu Digne,Mathieu Digne,Philippe Sautet,Philippe Sautet,Pascal Raybaud,Patrick Euzen,Hervé Toulhoat +7 more
TL;DR: Using density functional (DFT) calculations, the authors in this article proposed realistic models of γ-alumina (110 and 100) surfaces accounting for hydroxylation/dehydylation processes induced by temperature effects, leading to an accurate assignment of the OH stretching frequencies observed by infrared (IR) spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theoretical Study of the Dehydration Process of Boehmite to γ-Alumina
Xénophon Krokidis,Pascal Raybaud,Anne-Elisabeth Gobichon,Bernadette Rebours,Patrick Euzen,Hervé Toulhoat +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a step-by-step mechanism for the structural transformation of boehmite (AlOOH) taking place under calcination and leading to γ-alumina (γ-Al2O3) has been investigated theoretically.
Journal ArticleDOI
A geometrical model of the active phase of hydrotreating catalysts
TL;DR: A geometrical model of sulphided unpromoted and promoted molybdenum or tungstensupported on alumina catalysts has been developed on the basis of two hypotheses which can be deduced from literature data: these are the presence of small patches of supported MoS2(WS2) and the importance of the edge sites located on these patches.
PRIORITY COMMUNICATION Hydroxyl Groups on γ-Alumina Surfaces: A DFT Study
TL;DR: Digne et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a DFT study on hydroxyl groups on γ-Alumina surfaces. But they did not consider the effect of surface properties on the performance of the DFT.
