The study of the formation, characterization, and functionality isolated surface hydrides on solid materials is a formidable task because complexity surfaces difficulty analyzing structures in solids. Herein, we found formation indium (In) hydride species supported by CHA zeolites. In were formed treatment an In-exchanged zeolite (In-CHA) with H2 at high temperatures (>773 K). situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that...

Plastic waste is a major environmental issue; converting it directly into valuable chemicals by using catalysts promising alternative to plastic recycling. Here, we report the selective catalytic cracking of polypropylene (PP), typical commodity plastic, high-value light olefins (C2–C5), below pyrolytic temperature (290 °C) and without external hydrogen supply, zeolite catalysts. Among H+-form zeolites with different structures, HMFI showed highest yields hydrocarbons which (C2–C5) were...

Valorization of biomass-derived feedstock triglycerides (TGs) into the corresponding acids via hydrolysis is an attractive and robust research target. Herein we screened different heterogeneous homogeneous catalysts for trilaurin in water; among catalysts, pseudohexagonal (TT) phase Nb2O5 catalyst was most effective with highest yield lauric acid under mild reaction conditions. A series obtained by calcinating Nb2O5·nH2O at temperatures were characterized tested this to determine...

A reaction of ethane (C2H6) with ammonia (NH3) over metal-loaded zeolites to yield acetonitrile (CH3CN) under the O2-free conditions was studied. Among various zeolites, Ga/HFER a Ga/Al ratio 1.0 afforded highest CH3CN yield. Ga-free HFER and Ga-loaded K-exchanged FER (Ga/KFER) were nearly inactive for ammodehydrogenation C2H6, indicating that both Ga Brønsted acid sites are indispensable. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) results show Ga2O3 species in as-prepared catalyst...

Catalytic propane dehydrogenation (PDH) has mainly been studied using metal- and metal oxide-based catalysts. Studies on catalysis by hydrides, however, have rarely reported. In this study, PDH reactions group IIIB IVB hydride catalysts were investigated under relatively low-temperature conditions of 450 °C. Lanthanum exhibited the lowest activation energy for highest propylene yield. Based kinetics studies, a comparison between reported calculation results isotope experiments, hydrogen...
