The copper-catalyzed oxidation of graphite

Douglas W. McKee
- 01 Mar 1970 - 
- Vol. 8, Iss: 2, pp 131-139
TLDR
The role of copper as a catalyst in the oxidation of graphite has been studied by optical microscopy and thermogravimetric analysis as mentioned in this paper, which suggests that the catalytic effect involves the localized reduction of cupric oxide by graphite and subsequent reoxidation of the resulting metal.

Electrochemical performance of Cu- and Ag-doped carbon aerogels

Zulamita Zapata-Benabithe, +2 more
- 15 Mar 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, metal-doped carbon aerogels were activated with oxygen at 300°C up to a 20% burn-off and showed the highest gravimetric and volumetric capacitances, 192 F g −1 and 98 F cm −3, respectively.

Containment materials for liquid tin at 1350 °C as a heat transfer fluid for high temperature concentrated solar power

Yunshu Zhang, +7 more
- 01 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate three candidate high-temperature materials, possessing a range of thermal conductivities, for the containment of molten tin: graphite (C), silicon carbide (SiC), and mullite (Al6Si2O13).

Complete oxidation of active carbon at low temperatures by composite catalysts

Tomoyuki Inui, +3 more
- 01 Jan 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction between oxygen and active carbon was studied at 500°C and the synergistic effect of the oxidation activity was widely observed in the composite metal-metal oxide catalyst/carbon system.

The striking behaviour of copper catalysing the gasification reaction of coal chars in dry air

Carlos Moreno-Castilla, +4 more
- 01 Jan 1987 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the temperature at which the particles of the catalyst wet the surface of the carbon and become mobile has been investigated, and it was shown that at a certain temperature there is a very high increase in the reactivity value, reaching a region of very low apparent activation energy.

Study on regeneration of diesel particulate filter using a laboratory reactor

Ulrich Hoffmann, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1990 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the regeneration of diesel particulate filters can be accomplished by complete combustion of a collected particulate A reactor has been developed for study of the regeneration in the presence of catalysts, additives and ignition aids.

Catalytic oxidation of graphite

G.R. Hennig
- 01 Dec 1962 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the etch patterns of colloidal metal particles placed on graphite single crystals catalyse the oxidation of graphite, but the catalysis occurs only at the metal-carbon interface.

Etude de la combustion catalytique du graphite

H. Amariglio, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1966 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the catalytic effect of metal catalysts at such temperatures that the rate of the uncatalyzed reaction is negligible and showed that only metals able to oscillate between two degrees of oxidation, under the given conditions of combustion, do show a catalytic power.

Catalytic effect of major impurities on graphite oxidation

Edward A. Heintz, +1 more
- 01 Dec 1965 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the divalent state of the metal enters into the oxidation mechanism of the graphite in a manner similar to that proposed by Long and Sykes.
