Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of Copper Chromite Catalysts in Hydrogenation Reactions
TL;DR: In this article, a 4-h reduction under H2 at 573 K compared to either 473 or 673 K, gave the highest specific activity for furfural and crotonaldehyde hydrogenation over an unpromoted copper chromite catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of activated carbon, graphitized carbon fibers and synthetic diamond powder using TPD and DRIFTS
TL;DR: In this article, a high surface area activated carbon, graphitized carbon fibers and synthetic diamond powder were characterized by X-ray diffraction, temperature-programmed desorption and diffuse reflectance infrared (IR) spectroscopy (DRIFTS).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Interplay Between Sulfur Adsorption and Carbon Deposition on Cobalt Catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the interplay between sulfur adsorption and carbon deposition reactions was investigated by monitoring not only the gas-phase products but also the amount of filamentous carbon deposited from the interaction of sulfur-contaminated cobalt particles with ethylene/hydrogen mixtures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Promotional effect of carbon monoxide on the decomposition of ethylene over an iron catalyst
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used growth of filamentous carbon in conjunction with the gas-phase product distribution as a probe of the reactivity of a powdered iron catalyst when exposed to a carbon-containing gas environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon-Supported Copper Catalysts: I. Characterization
TL;DR: In this paper, a higher dispersion of Cu was obtained with the diamond support compared with the graphitized fibers when prepared via a wet impregnation technique, and it is attributed to the stabilization of Cu through interactive dangling bonds on the diamond surface.
