摘要:
We disclose a self-cleaning window blind which includes a thin layer of photocatalytic material on at least one surface of the slats. The window blind includes an ultraviolet light source which directs ultraviolet light onto the photocatalytic material. Consequently, the window blind is not dependent on available sunlight. The ultraviolet light source may be located in either the headrail or the bottom rail of the window blinds. Upon exposure to ultraviolet light, organic material on the slats which may include dust, grease, or microorganisms, may be converted to carbon dioxide and water. One or both of the horizontal edges of the slats may include a lip which may collect water formed by the photocatalytic reaction. In some embodiments, the slats are slightly convex. This shape may inhibit water from collecting in droplets on the slat and help direct the water towards the lip. Consequently, water spots are not created on the slats.

摘要:
A method for forming an oxide coated substrate comprising heating a pre-coating mixture in the presence of a substrate to synthesize an oxide coating on the substrate. The pre-coating mixture comprises a solubilized reducing additive, a solubilized oxidizing additive, and the substrate. The heating is conducted at a temperature sufficiently high enough to exothermically react the solubilized reducing additive and solubilized oxidizing additive and low enough to control the phase and composition of the oxide.
摘要:
Disclosed are a catalyst for dehydrogenating a paraffinic hydrocarbon and a method of preparing the same, wherein the catalyst is configured such that a sponge-type alumina support having 3D meso/macro pores is directly impregnated with an active metal, thus decreasing the diffusion resistance of a material, realizing structural stability, and maximizing the distribution of the active metal in the support, thereby significantly increasing olefin conversion and selectivity.In this catalyst, the sponge-type alumina support is directly impregnated with the active metal to thus form an active metal layer inside the support having 3D meso/macro pores that are interconnected to each other.

摘要:
The invention provides an olefin oligomerization process comprising the steps of: i) reducing the level of nitriles in an olefin feed by contacting the feed with a guard bed comprising gamma alumina having a surface area greater than 250 m2/g; and ii) contacting the olefin feed obtained in step i) with an oligomerization catalyst under conditions suitable to oligomerize the olefins in the feed; wherein the gamma alumina used in step i) has been obtained from needle shaped boehmite.
