摘要:
A catalyst structure suitable for use in an ammonia oxidation process is described including a plurality of shaped catalyst units supported on one or more members in a spaced relationship that allows the structure to flex.
摘要:
An iridium alloy consists essentially of iridium and at least one of W and Zr, and optionally Rh. When present, W comprises between 0.01 and 5 wt % of the alloy; when present in combination with W, Zr comprises between 0.01 and 0.5 wt % of the alloy; when present alone or in combination with Rh only, Zr comprises between 0.01 and 0.09 wt % of the alloy; and when present, Rh comprises between 0.1 and 5 wt % of the alloy. The alloys may be modified by the addition of platinum and other platinum group metals and base metals. The alloys demonstrate enhanced physical and chemical properties and are suitable for use as electrode materials in spark plugs and other high temperature applications.
摘要:
A method for producing a catalyst using an additive layer method includes: (i) forming a layer of a powdered catalyst or catalyst support material, (ii) binding or fusing the powder in said layer according to a predetermined pattern, (iii) repeating (i) and (ii) layer upon layer to form a shaped unit, and (iv) optionally applying a catalytic material to said shaped unit.

摘要:
Metals for use in glass-making furnaces and which are susceptible to oxidation at furnace operating temperatures, especially iridium or molybdenum, are protected by applying at least (200) microns thickness of a coating formed of metal oxide particles in a metal oxide matrix. Oxidation, measured by weight loss, is significantly reduced.
摘要:
Part of the surface of a metallic-oxide refractory ceramic part, such as a fusion-cast refractory block, is treated using a high energy beam, to remove portions of the surface. A metal film may then be sprayed onto the treated surface of the ceramic part, for example to provide protection against erosion/corrosion in glass furnaces. Excellent adhesion between metal and ceramic can be attained.
摘要:
An ignition device such as a spark plug having ground and center electrodes, at least one of which includes a firing tip formed from an alloy containing iridium, rhodium, tungsten, and zirconium. With the inclusion of tungsten and zirconium in the alloy, the percentage of rhodium can be kept relatively low without sacrificing the erosion resistance or reduced sparking voltage of the firing tip. In one embodiment, the firing tip contains 2.5% rhodium, 0.3% tungsten, 0.07% zirconium, and the balance iridium.
摘要:
A catalyst charge for ammonia oxidation, including the Andrussow process, comprises a first stage ammonia oxidation catalyst capable of oxidizing 20 to 99% of designed ammonia throughput, to produce a first stage product gas comprising unreacted ammonia, oxygen and nitrogen oxides, and a second stage ammonia oxidation catalyst capable of completing the oxidation of unreacted ammonia. Low levels of nitrous oxide are produced an extended campaign lengths may be seen.
