TL;DR: In this article, fracture surface features were studied and compared using high-resolution surface-sensitive scanning electron microscopy, and the deformation microstructures just beneath the fracture surfaces were studied using transmission electron microscope, providing a mechanistic view of failure catalyzed by hydrogen.

TL;DR: Adams and Stiefel as discussed by the authors used x-ray crystallography to provide the first structural glimpse of the iron-only hydrogenase from the hydrogen-producing, anaerobic bacterium Clostridium pasteurianum.
Abstract: Many organisms metabolize hydrogen gas by means of an enzyme called hydrogenase. The nature of the catalytic sites in the hydrogenases has long been a subject of conjecture and debate. In their Perspective, Adams and Stiefel discuss results reported in the same issue by
Peters
et al.
in which x-ray crystallography was used to provide the first structural glimpse of the iron-only hydrogenase from the hydrogen-producing, anaerobic bacterium
Clostridium pasteurianum. With this information, it is hoped that the properties of the hydrogenase enzyme can now be understood and possibly mimicked for chemical processing applications.

29 Nov 1988TL;DR: In this paper, a process for preparing a supported metallocene alumoxane catalyst for use in the gas phase polymerization of olefins is described, which is based on the use of silica gel containing from about 6 to 10 percent by weight adsorbed water as the catalyst support material.
Abstract: of EP0323716This invention relates to a process for preparing a supported metallocene alumoxane catalyst for use in the gas phase polymerization of olefins. The invention particularly relates to the use of silica gel containing from about 6 to about 10 percent by weight adsorbed water as the catalyst support material. It has been found that such silica gel may be safely added to an aluminum trialkyl solution to form by direct reaction with the adsorbed water content of the silica gel catalyst support material the alumoxane component of the catalyst system. An alumoxane coated silica gel is formed to which a metallocene may be added and the resulting material dried to free flowing powder. The dry free flowing powder may then be used as a supported metallocene alumoxane catalyst complex for gas phase polymerization of olefins.

01 Jan 2000TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine reactions of nitrogen-containing species that are important in high-temperature gas-phase systems so as to provide the best set of rate coefficients presently available for use in combustion chemistry modeling.
Abstract: The purpose of this chapter is to examine reactions of nitrogen-containing species that are important in high-temperature gas-phase systems so as to provide the best set of rate coefficients presently available for use in combustion chemistry modeling. Since the 1984 review of N/H/O rate coefficients by Hanson and Salimian 1984 there has been a major review of nitrogen chemistry under combustion conditions by Miller and Bowman (1989). Several compilations of evaluated rate coefficients have also appeared. We update these discussions where appropriate and then analyze a number of chemically activated reactions that are relevant to understanding nitrogen chemistry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of ultraviolet illumination on crude oil using a variety of techniques including gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectrography was examined.
Abstract: Photooxidation is a potentially significant process in the degradation of crude oil spilled at sea. Moreover, a fundamental understanding of the effect of photochemical degradation on crude oil is a prerequisite for providing an accurate description of the recent history and potential fate of oil spilled in a marine environment. In this report we examine the effect of ultraviolet illumination on crude oil using a variety of techniques including gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The saturated compounds are resistant, but the aromatic compounds are particularly sensitive to photooxidation. Greater size and increasing alkyl substitution increase the sensitivity of aromatic compounds to photochemical oxidation. The photooxidized products appear in the resin and polar fractions as determined by thin-layer chroma tography. Thus, the effect of photooxidation is distinctly different from that of biodegradation, where larger and more substituted compounds are more resistant to...
