Comparative study of Nickel-based perovskite-like mixed oxide catalysts for direct decomposition of NO

The mixed oxides LaNiO3, La0.1Sr0.9NiO3, La2NiO4 and LaSrNiO4 were prepared and used as catalysts for the direct decomposition of NO. The catalysts were characterized by means of XRD, XPS, O-2-TPD, NO-TPD and chemical analysis. By comparing the physico-chemical properties and catalytic activity for NO decomposition, a conclusion could be drawn as follows. The direct decomposition of NO over perovskite and related mixed oxide catalysts follows a redox mechanism. The lower valent metal ions Ni2+ and disordered oxygen vacancies seem to be the active sites in the redox process. The oxygen vacancy plays an important role favorable for the adsorption and activation of NO molecules on one hand and on the other hand for increasing the mobility of lattice oxygen which is beneficial to the reproduction of active sites. The presence of oxygen vacancies is one of the indispensable factors to give the mixed oxides a steady activity for NO decomposition.

Studies on the adsorption property of NO on the Ni-based mixed oxide catalysts with Perovskite-like (ABO(3) and A(2)BO(4)) structure

The mixed oxides LaNiO3, La0.1Sr0.9NiO3, La2NiO4 and LaSrNiO4 with perovskite (ABO(3)) and related(A(2)BO(4)) structures were prepared and the adsorption property for NO and the catalytic activity for NO decomposition over these oxidse were also tested. The catalysts were characterized by means of BET surface measurement, chemical analysis, NO-TPD etc.. It was shown that the adsorption amount of NO is correlated with the concentration of oxygen vacancy formed and the adsorption type and strength of NO are related to the valence of metallic ion. Generally there are three kinds of adsorption species, NO-, NO+ and NO on the mixed oxides, among them the negative adsorpion species (NO-) are active for NO decomposition. The weaker the adsorption of oxygen on the catalyst is, the faster the mobility of oxygen is and the easier the redox process takes place in reproducing the active sites in which the oxygen species (O-, O2-) would participate.

STUDIES ON THE PEROVSKITE-TYPE MIXED CATALYSTS OF TITANIUM SYSTEM FOR OXIDATIVE COUPLING OF METHANE - THE INFLUENCE OF CALCINATION TEMPERATURE

The correlations of the calcination temperature, structure and catalytic activity for the oxidative coupling of methane on the LiLa0.5Ti0.5O2+lambda catalysts whose main phase and major active phase is Perovskite-type ternary complex oxide LaTi1-yLiyO3-lambda have been studied. The surface and bulk structures of the catalysts were characterized by means of XRD, XPS, IR, BET and so on, The results cleary indicated that the effect of calcination temperature on the activity for the oxidative coupling of methane is twofold. On one hand, it is favorable for Li+ substitution for Ti3+ to enter into the lattice of LaTiO3 and produce more oxygen vacancies in which active oxygens are formed; however, excessively high calcination temperature make the amount of Li+ substitution for Ti3+ lower, due to a little change of structure or phases for the catalyst. On the other hand, the conversion of CH4 drops because of the decrease of surface area, when the calcination temperature is raised.

A STUDY OF THE CATALYTIC PROPERTIES OF PEROVSKITE-TYPE OXIDES LAMNYCO1-YO3 .2. THE INTERACTION BETWEEN TRANSITION-METAL IONS AND THEIR CATALYTIC PROPERTY IN AMMONIA OXIDATION

It has been found that the interaction between the two transition metal Mn, Co ions on B-site and their Redox property an the important factors influencing the NO-selectivity in ammonia oxidation. The NO-selectivity is related to the redox ability of Mn3+

PREPARATION, CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE, AND VIBRATIONAL-SPECTRA OF PEROVSKITE-TYPE MIXED OXIDES LAM(Y)M'(1-Y)O(3) (M,M'=MN, FE, CO)

Three series of samples LaMnyCo1-yO3+/-lambda, LaFeyMn1-yO3+/-lambda, and LaFeyCo1-yO3+/-lambda (y = 0.0 to 1.0) with Perovskite structure were prepared by an explosion method different from the generally used ceramic techniques. The variation of crystal

A STUDY OF CATALYTIC PROPERTIES OF PEROVSKITE-TYPE OXIDES LAMNYCO1-YO3 .1. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TYPE OF OXYGEN SPECIES AND THE CATALYTIC PROPERTY IN AMMONIA OXIDATION

The type of oxygen species in perovskite-type oxides LaMnyCo1-yO3 (y = 0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.0) has been studied by means of XRD, XPS and TPD. The catalytic activity in ammonia oxidation was also investigated. It was found that there were three desorption peaks in TPD curve corresponding to three types of oxygen species (alpha, beta, beta'). The desorption temperatures were 293 K less-than-or-equal-to T(alpha) less-than-or-equal-to 773 K, 773 K less-than-or-equal-to T(beta) less-than-or-equal-to K and T(beta') greater-than-or-equal-to 1073 K respectively. The relationship among the composition, structure and the catalytic property of.the catalyst was correlated and could be explainned with a model based on solid defect reaction and the interaction between Co and Mn ions. The adsorption strength and quantity of a oxygen are proportional to the catalytic activity. The, result indicates that the synergetic effect between B-site ions seems to the benefit of the ammonis oxidation reaction.

AN INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF THE STRUCTURAL PHASE-TRANSITION IN THE PEROVSKITE-TYPE LAYER COMPOUND [N-C16H33NH3]2COCL4

The solid-solid phase transitions in the perovskite-type layer compound [n- C16H33NH3]2CoCl4 have been studied by infrared spectroscopy. A new phase transition at 340 K was found by comparison with differential scanning calorimetry results. A temperature dependence study of the infrared spectra provides evidence of the occurrence of structural phase transitions related to the dynamics of the alkylammonium ions and hydrogen bonds. The main transition at 374 K corresponds to the conformational order-disorder change in the chain, which probably couples with reorientational motions of the NH3 polar heads. GTG or GTG' defects appear in the high temperature disordered phase.

SOLID DEFECT STRUCTURE AND CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF PEROVSKITE-TYPE CATALYSTS LA1-XSRXNIO3-LAMBDA AND LA1-1.333XTHXNIO3-LAMBDA

Two series of La1-xSrxNiO3-lambda and La1-1.333xThxNiO3-lambda catalysts have been prepared, and the relationships between the solid defect structure and catalytic activity for NH3 oxidation were measured. The results showed that in the range of x < 0.3, the samples possessed single perovskite-type structure, and as the content of Sr2+ decreased and that of Th4+ increased the catalytic activity increased which was paralleled with the Ni3+ concentration within the catalysts. The active oxygen species (O- or O2(2-)) were present not only on the surface but also in the bulk of the samples. The synergistic effect of transition metal ions with higher oxidation states and randomly distributed oxygen vacancies was the key factor determining catalytic activity of perovskite-type oxides. A redox mechanism for NH3 oxidation over ABO3 is proposed.

RAMAN-SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF THE PEROVSKITE LAYER STRUCTURE COMPOUNDS - [N-CNH2N+1NH3]2ZNCL4

The C-H stretching, C-H bending, C-C stretching and the low-frequency vibrational regions have been investigated by Raman spectroscopy for [n-CnH2n+1NH3]2ZnCl4 with n = 7-12, 16. The frequencies and relative intensities are related to the length of the carbon chain in the molecules and present the odd-even effect of the carbon atom numbers in the chains. Some changes in the spectra are interpreted in terms of the different molecular packing.

地幔压力下CaSiO3 Perovskite���态方程和弹性常数的第一性原理研究

In the past decade density functional theory (DFT) has made its way from a peripheral position in quantum chemistry to center. Of course the often excellent accuracy of the DFT based methods has provided the primary driving force of this development. This dissertation is devoted to the study of physical and chemical properties of planetary materials by first-principle calculation. The concerned properties include the geometry, elastic constants and anisotropy. In the first chapter, we give a systematic introduction to theoretical background and review its progress. Development of quantum chemistry promotes the establishment of DFT. Theorem of Hohenberg-Kohn is the fundament of DFT and is developed to Kohn-Sham equation, which can be used to perform real calculations. Now, new corrections and extensions, together with developed exchange-correlation, have made DFT more accurate and suitable for larger systems. In the second chapter, we focus on the calculational methods and technical aspects of DFT. Although it is important to develop methods and program, external package are still often used. At the end of this chapter, we briefly some widely used simulation package and the application of DFT. In the third chapter, we begin to focus on properties of real materials by first principles calculation. We study a kind of minerals named Ca perovskite, investigate its possible structure and anisotropy at Earth’s mental condition. By understanding and predicting geo-physically important materials properties at extreme conditions, we can get the most accurate information to interpret seismic data in the context of likely geophysical processes.
