HZSM5 zeolite was modified by exchanging proton by niobium (V). Several samples were obtained with various degrees of exchange. Pore volumes and acidity were measured to characterize these exchanged zeolites. Catalytic properties were evaluated with two reaction tests: m-xylene transformation and n-heptane cracking. The introduction of niobium on HZSM5 zeolite decreases the diffusion coefficient of 2-methyl-pentane and increases the zeolite acidity. The sample containing niobium are initially more active in cracking of n-heptane and m-xylene isomerization than HZSM5 alone.

Alumina supported niobium oxide was prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of NbCl5. The alumina was calcined and pretreated at differents temperatures in order to vary the density of OH groups on the surface which was determined by thermogravimetric analysis. A good correlation was found between the amount of anchored niobium and the total number of anionic sites (oxide and hydroxyl groups) on the surface of the alumina. The infrared spectra on the OH stretching region indicate that OH groups coordinated to at least one tetrahedral aluminum were more reactive towards NbCl5.

The aim of this work is to study the electrochromism and the reaction kinetics of lithium electrointercalation in anodic niobium oxide films. The oxide grown in an acid environment by application of an alternating potential shows interference colour (iridescence) and when reduced in lithium perclorate/PC solution, the intercalation of Li+ ions and electrons causes a reversible colour change (electrochromism), characterized here by electrochemical and optical measurements. A model where the reaction kinetics is dominated by diffusion of ionic pairs (Li+, e-) in the oxide film permitted the reproduction of current and absorbance temporal dependence, confirming the relationship between the electrochromic and electrochemical reactions. From the results obtained, a relation was established where the colour change is associated to the reduction of Nb+5 to Nb+4 ions with simultaneous cations injection.

Methylene blue (AM) was immobilised on surface of the silica gel modified with niobium oxide. This material was incorporated in a carbon paste electrode, which showed a redox couple in a potential of E= -113 mV vs SCE in KCl solution at pH 7.0. The formal potential, in 0.5 mol L-1 KCl at pH 7.0, shifted about 290 mV towards more positive values compared to those observed for AM solubilized in aqueous solution. The dependence on the formal potential with solution pH between 2 and 7 was much lower than those observed for AM solubilized in aqueous solution.

This work reports the preparation, characterization and study of the ion exchange behavior of hydrous niobium oxide prepared by a homogeneous precipitation method. The precipitating agent was obtained in aqueous solution by thermal decomposition of urea or ammonium carbonate. The compounds were chemically and physically characterized by X-ray diffractometry, thermal analysis (TG/DTG), surface area measurements and ion exchange behavior with sodium. The materials prepared with ammonium carbonate presented a higher degree of crystallinity and better ion exchange capacity with sodium than materials prepared with urea. In the homogeneous precipitation method, materials were obtained with specific surface area of 123 - 224 m² g-1. A variation of the preparation process produced hydrous niobium oxide with a different degree of hydration and specific surface area. This provided materials with different physico-chemical properties.

Nb-substituted goethites have been prepared and characterized by Mössbauer spectroscopy, XRD, SEM and BET surface area measurements. Mössbauer and XRD analyses suggested that Nb replaces Fe3+ in the structure with duplet formation. The insertion of Nb into the goethite structure caused a significant increase in the BET surface area of the material. The prepared alpha-Fe1-xNb xOOH was investigated for the H2O2 decomposition to O2 and for the Fenton reaction to oxidize the dye methylene blue. It was observed that the introduction of Nb in to goethite produced a strong increase in the activity of oxidation of the dye contaminant by H2O2.

This work describes the study the adsorption of a cationic surfactant, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) in the hydrous niobium phosphate matrix. The matrix was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (DRX), thermal analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and surface area measurements (BET). The Langmuir and Freundlich isothermal models were used in the CTAB adsorption study. The adsorption process wasn`t favorable for the NbOPO4.nH2O in both studied models.

The adsorption kinetics of phosphate on Nb2O5.nH2O was investigated at initial phosphate concentrations 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 mg.L-1. The kinetic process was described by a pseudo-second-order rate model very well. The adsorption thermodynamics was carried out at 298, 308, 318, 328 and 338 K. The positive values of both ΔH and ΔS suggest an endothermic reaction and increase in randomness at the solid-liquid interface during the adsorption. ΔG values obtained were negative indicating a spontaneous adsorption process. The Langmuir model described the data better than the Freundlich isotherm model. The effective desorption could be achieved using water at pH 12.

Despite the fact that Brazil is the world’s largest niobium mineral producer, governmental interest in exploration of the mineral leading to more valuable derived materials is scarce, which has reduced the country’s knowledge about a wider range of technological applications for this metal. Niobium pentoxide stands out due its remarkable electronic, structural, and textural properties. Therefore, this review aims to highlight its main properties, synthetic methods, and applications, with a particular focus on photocatalysts based on Nb2O5. This review will highlight the potential of Nb2O5 and encourage the study of niobium and its compounds in technological and environmental applications.

A formação de P não-lábil a partir de formas lábeis, adsorvidas aos oxihidróxidos de Fe e Al, é razão para o baixo efeito residual da fertilização fosfatada em solos tropicais. A reversibilidade do P não-lábil para formas lábeis nesses solos pode ser favorecida pela redução do Fe3+ e, ou, pela diminuição da atividade dos oxihidróxidos de Fe e Al. Neste trabalho, objetivou-se avaliar a adsorção e dessorção de P, sua transformação em não-lábil e reversibilidade dessa forma em amostras de solos submetidas à redução microbiana ou química. Para isso, amostras de 11 solos foram homogeneizadas com 300 mg kg-1 de P na forma de NaH2PO4 em solução, incubadas por 30 dias e, então, submetidas a dez extrações sucessivas de P com resina de troca aniônica (RTA) (tratamento sem redução). Em seguida, outras amostras dos solos foram submetidas à ambiente redutor em solução de sacarose 0,1 mol L-1 com posterior aplicação da doses de P (300 mg kg-1) e as dez extrações sucessivas de P (tratamento redução microbiana). Depois, outras amostras foram reduzidas/complexadas com oxalato de amônio (Ox) ou com citrato-ditionito-bicarbonato (CDB), e os solos/resíduos receberam a mesma dose de P dos experimentos anteriores. Foram então incubados por 30 dias e submetidos às extrações sucessivas com RTA (tratamento redução química). A capacidade máxima de adsorção de P (CMAP) dos solos mostrou-se mais dependente da goethita (com 70,8 % de contribuição para seu valor) do que da gibbsita (com contribuição de 29,2 %). A correlação negativa entre os teores de P obtidos na segunda extração com a RTA, nos solos em condição natural, sem redução, e os teores de gibbsita sugere que este, e não a goethita, é o oxihidróxido responsável pela maior restrição à dessorção do P. Os valores de CMAP, estimados por meio do P remanescente (P-rem), mostraram, nas amostras submetidas ao tratamento com redução microbiana, pequena alteração para o grupo dos solos menos oxídicos, com menor CMAP. Todavia, nos solos mais oxídicos, com maior CMAP, o efeito prévio da sacarose foi o aumenta do P-rem (diminuição da CMAP) 10 vezes em relação aos solos para o tratamento sem redução. Entretanto, a redução gerada pela sacarose não alterou a dessorção do P anteriormente adsorvido. A expectativa de que ocorreria significativa reversibilidade de P não-lábil com a redução microbiana ou química dos solos não se concretizou, demonstrando a grande estabilidade dessas formas.

Neste estudo foi desenvolvido uma metodologia para determinação de Ni(II) em amostras de água usando a extração em fase sólida (SPE) em um sistema por injeção em fluxo (FI) e detecção por espectrometria de absorção atômica em chama (F AAS). O adsorvente utilizado para a extração e pré-concentração do Ni(II) foi a sílica gel modificada com óxido de nióbio(V). Variáveis químicas e de fluxo do sistema em linha foram otimizadas usando planejamento fatorial completo (N = 2k + 3). As condições iniciais do sistema FI-F AAS foram volume de amostra de 10 mL e concentração de Ni(II) de 100 µg L-1. O tampão Sörensen foi selecionado neste estudo. A resposta analítica utilizada foi absorvância integrada. Após a otimização foram obtidos os parâmetros analíticos de mérito: faixa linear de trabalho estudada de 5-100 µg L-1; R = 0.9999; RSD = 1,5% (35 µg L-1, n = 7); limite de detecção de 0,8 µg L-1; limite de quantificação de 2,7 µg L-1 e fator de enriquecimento de 92,25. Foram analisadas amostras de água do rio Araranguá e a da rede de abastecimento da cidade de Florianópolis, ambas do estado de Santa Catarina. As duas amostras não apresentaram concentração de níquel acima do limite de detecção e após fortificação das mesmas os valores de recuperação foram na faixa de 100,2 a 103,8%.
