(2020-04-30)Ammonium perchlorate (AP) is an extensively used oxidizer in solid composite propellants, and its combustion behavior can be tailored by the presence of catalytic additives such as metal oxides. Nano-sized metal oxide ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The shape selectivity and catalytic properties of organically pillared zirconium phosphates, novel aluminophosphate (AlP12A), AlPO[4]-5 with transition metal oxides, and silicalite with transition metal oxides have been ...
-
(2020-05-18)Dry reforming of methane (DRM) is an important process that utilizes CO2 to convert methane into a mixture of H2 and CO (synthesis gas or syngas). Commercial applicability of DRM has been challenged by the high energy ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)The synthetic utilities of enzymes as catalysts for asymmetric synthesis have been explored in several aspects. Fructose-1,6-diphosphate aldolase from rabbit muscle and E. coli, rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase and ...
-
(2017-04-18)Various aspects of the catalytic synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) on transition metal nanoparticles were studied by combining atomistic simulations: reactive molecular dynamics (RMD), density functional ...
-
Regulations regarding industrial gas emissions, such as CO2, became stringent over the years. Additive manufacturing is a critical enabling technology that could develop innovative solutions for this application. This ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)The pyrolysis of biomass refers to incomplete thermal degradation resulting in char, pyrolytic oil, and gaseous products. The pyrolytic oil is a complex mixture of many components including phenolics, anhydrosugars, and ...

(2010-07-14)Alloys, intermetallic compounds and multi-metal oxides are generally made by traditional solid-state methods that often require melting or grinding/pressing powders followed by high temperature annealing (> 1000 degrees ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)The utility of papain in the synthesis of peptides containing D or unusual amino acids has been demonstrated. A novel one-step synthesis of tripeptides has been developed using papain. The amidase activity of a number of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)The selective oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde over molybdenum-containing catalysts, such as silica-supported molybdenum oxide and unsupported molybdenum oxides, was studied. This dissertation describes (1) the role ...
-
(2017-07-24)MOFs are ideal platforms to immobilize porphyrins and their derivatives. MOF’s high surface areas and rigid structures not only make porphyrin moieties approachable substrates but also prevent the dimerization of their ...
-
(2012-04-18)Reactions that involve two immiscible reactants are challenging to perform due to limitations associated with mass transport. This becomes even more challenging when a catalyst is required to progress the reaction. Biodiesel ...
