Abstract:
Method and apparatus for making composite particles, such as supported metallic catalyst particles, that involve providing a vapor of a metallic catalyst material in a carrier gas flow, providing an aerosol of support particles wherein the support particles are at a lower temperature than said vapor, and contacting the aerosol and the vapor in the carrier gas flow to form particles of the metallic catalyst material on individual support particles.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a catalyst containing one or several metals from the group of metals comprising the subgroups Ib and VIIIb of the periodic table on porous support particles, characterised by a first step in which one or several precursors from the group of compounds of metals from sub-groups Ib and VIIIb of the periodic table is or are applied to a porous support, and a second step in which the porous, preferably nanoporous support to which at least one precursor has been applied is treated with at least one reduction agent, to obtain the metal nanoparticles produced in situ in the pores of said support.

Abstract:
A method for manufacturing polycarbonate by melt-polycondensing bisphenol and carbonic acid diester uses as catalyst an alkali metal compound and/or alkaline earth metal compound (a). The catalyst is added to the bisphenol prior to the melt polycondensation, in an effective amount, i.e., the amount of alkali metal compound and/or alkaline earth metal compound (a) that acts effectively as a catalyst, is contained in said bisphenol, and is controlled to have the same catalytic activity as 1null10null8 to 1null10null6 mole of bisphenol disodium salt per mole of pure bisphenol A. The method conducts the reaction efficiently from the initial stage in a stable manner to obtain polycarbonate with good color, good heat stability and color stability during molding and the like.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a negative active material for a lithium secondary battery. The negative active material includes graphitized coke having a graphitization catalyst element and non-flat artificial graphite. The negative active material for a lithium secondary battery has good electrolyte-immersibility due to the gap between the graphite particles from graphitized coke having a graphitization catalyst element, and non-flat artificial graphite. Therefore, the present invention may provide a lithium secondary battery which has good high-rate capacity and initial efficiency.
Abstract:
A catalyst body comprising a carrier and a catalyst layer containing an alkali metal and/or an alkaline earth metal, loaded on the carrier, which catalyst further contains a substance capable of reacting with the alkali metal and/or the alkaline earth metal, dominating over the reaction between the main components of the carrier and the alkali metal and/or the alkaline earth metal. With this catalyst body, the deterioration of the carrier by the alkali metal and/or the alkaline earth metal is prevented; therefore, the catalyst body can be used over a long period of time.
Abstract:
Catalyst for steam cracking reactions consisting of pure mayenite having the general formula: 12CaO.7Al2O3 having an X-ray diffraction spectrum as indicated in Table I, obtained with a preparation process comprising the following steps: dissolution of salts containing calcium and aluminum with water; complexing of the dissolved salts by means of polyfunctional organic hydroxyacids; drying of the solution resulting from the complexing in order to obtain a solid precursor product; calcination of the solid precursor product at a temperature ranging from 1300 to 1400null C. for at least two hours.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method of distributing a washcoat along channels of a particulate filter substrate, the method comprising: disposing a washcoat slurry comprising a catalytically active material within a channel of a particulate filter element such that a concentration of the catalytically active material varies anisotropically along the length of the channels. In one embodiment, a solids content of the washcoat slurry is selected to provide an anisotropic variation in the concentration of the catalytically active material. The washcoat slurry may be pushed a predetermined distance into the channels, the predetermined distance being less than or equal to the full length of the channels, and the pushing may be performed once. The solids content of the washcoat composition may be increased to provide an increase in a concentration of the catalytically active material proximate an end of the particulate filter substrate. Alternatively, the solids content of the washcoat composition may be decreased to increase the uniformity of in the distribution of the catalytically active material throughout a length of the particulate filter substrate.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for the, (in particular continuous), oxidation of particulates from the exhaust gases of diesel motors. Said device consists of an open-pored body as a particle filter, on whose surface an oxidation catalyst is finely dispersed. The device is characterized in that from an exhaust gas temperature as low as 150null C., the catalyst causes the oxidation of particulates attached to the filter using the residual oxygen of the exhaust gas, thus keeping the filter body continuously free of particulates during almost all the operating conditions of the motor.
