摘要:
A catalyst that can be used for the production of hydrogen from hydrocarbon fuels in steam reforming processes contains an active metal of, e.g., at least one of Ir, Pt and Pd, on a catalyst support of, e.g., at least one of monoclinic zirconia and an alkaline-earth metal hexaaluminate. The catalyst exhibits improved activity, stability in both air and reducing atmospheres, and sulfur tolerance.

摘要:
The present development is a catalyst for use in the water-gas-shift reaction. The catalyst includes a Group VIII or Group IB metal, a transition metal promoter selected from the group consisting of rhenium, niobium, silver, manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten and a combination thereof, and a ceria-based support. The support may further include gadolinium, samarium, zirconium, lithium, cesium, lanthanum, praseodymium, manganese, titanium, tungsten or a combination thereof. A process for preparing the catalyst is also presented. In a preferred embodiment, the process involves providing “clean” precursors as starting materials in the catalyst preparation.
摘要:
Disclosed is a novel polymeric composite including a nanoparticle filler and method for the production thereof. More particularly, the present invention provides a novel halloysite nanoparticle filler which has the generally cylindrical or tubular (e.g. rolled scroll-like shape), in which the mean outer diameter of the filler particle is typically less than about 500 nm. The filler is effectively employed in a polymer composite in which the advantages of the tubular nanoparticle filler are provided (e.g., reinforcement, flame retardant, chemical agent elution, etc.) with improved or equivalent mechanical performance of the composite (e.g., strength and ductility).

摘要:
Disclosed are compositions and methods for treating agricultural materials, crops and the like using materials associated with tubules, and more particularly to the controlled or timed release of such materials or agents as a function of the association with halloysite or other mineral-derived nanotubes.
摘要:
Disclosed are a radiation absorptive material and more particularly a method of economically coating halloysite or other mineral tubules (including nanotubules and microtubules) with a conductive metal (Cu) in order to produce an absorptive composite material capable of providing shielding and attenuation of radio-frequency signals.

Disclosed are systems and methods for the formation of a polymer nanocomposite material using a high-concentration masterbatch as a source of nanocomposite filler.
