Alkylation of isobutane with butene is an important industrial process for producing high-octane gasoline. Current industrial alkylations use either H2SO4 or HF as a catalyst. Compared to the liquid catalyst, the use of a ...

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 ...

Two and three-phase bubble columns have been used in various industrial processes. Bubble columns were initially used in the fermentation industry but more recently have been used as bioreactors and chemical reactors. One ...

Heterobimetallics of the form (L2)CuCo(CO)4 were found to be catalyst precursors for the decarboxylation of NCCH2CO2H. The rate of decarboxylation is affected by the donating ability of the L2 ligand, i.e., more basic ...

The objectives of this research are to synthesize composites containing zirconium diboride under a variety of conditions, to fabricate ZrB$sb2$-based materials using wire-cutting and die-sinking electrical discharge machines, ...

A series of six heterobimetallic carbonyl anions containing Fe and group 6 metals have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques, chemical reactivity, and X-ray crystallography. The structural features ...
