Propylene is an important building block for enormous petrochemicals including
polypropylene, propylene oxide, acrylonitrile and so forth. Propane dehydrogenation (PDH) …

Infrared absorption spectroscopy has proven to be one of the most powerful spectroscopic
techniques available for the characterization of catalytic systems. Although the history of IR …

Abstract Information about regional carbon sources and sinks can be derived from variations
in observed atmospheric CO2 concentrations via inverse modelling with atmospheric tracer …

Homogeneous organometallic catalysts and many enzymes activate reactants through
coordination to metal atoms; that is, the reactants are turned into ligands and their reactivity …

Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the adsorption of
propane, propene, and C and H atoms on Pt and PtSn surfaces employing the revised …

The effect of lanthanide elements (La, Ce, and Yb) on the catalytic behavior of sol–gel
Ni/Al2O3 catalysts in propane steam reforming was investigated. Steady-state reaction …

Rhodium nanoparticles dispersed on a variety of composite supports, M x O y-Al 2 O 3 (M:
Ti, Y, Zr, La, Ce, Nd, Gd), were investigated for the propane steam reforming (PSR) reaction …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the structural implications of the vibrational
spectroscopic results from the adsorption of ethene and the higher alkenes on different …

The surface chemistry of acrolein and of crotonaldehyde on Pt (111) single-crystal surfaces
was investigated under vacuum by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and …

The thermal chemistry of propylene on Pt (111) single-crystal surfaces was studied under
vacuum by using temperature-programmed desorption spectroscopy. Besides molecular …
