Purpose Binder jetting (BJ) process is an additive manufacturing (AM) in which powder materials are selectively joined by binder materials. Products can be manufactured layer-by-layer directly from three-dimensional model data. The quality properties of the products fabricated BJ AM significantly affected parameters. To improve product quality, optimal parameters need to identified and controlled. This research works with 420 stainless steel material. Design/methodology/approach study...
Abstract The Pd‐catalyzed, Cu I −carboxylate‐mediated cross‐coupling reaction of organosulfur compounds with nucleophilic organometallic reagents is known as the Liebeskind–Srogl reaction. Owing to readily available starting materials and neutral conditions, it has become an attractive procedure for formation carbon−carbon bonds, in particular cases which traditional methods had failed. Since seminal work Liebeskind Srogl 2000, this received intense attention from synthetic community. In...

Abstract Reported is a modular one‐step three‐component synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinolines using Catellani strategy. This process exploits aziridines as the alkylating reagents, through palladium/norbornene cooperative catalysis, to enable Catellani/Heck/aza‐Michael addition cascade. mild, chemoselective, and scalable protocol has broad substrate scope (43 examples, up 90 % yield). The most striking feature this excellent regioselectivity diastereoselectivity observed for 2‐alkyl‐...
Direct alcohol fuel cells (DAFCs) have the potential to provide high power densities for transportation and portable applications. However, widespread use of DAFCs is greatly hindered by lack anode electrocatalysts that are inexpensive, stable, resistant CO poisoning, highly active toward oxidation. One promising approach overcoming these challenges combine transition metal catalysts with oxide supports, such as SiO2, which known enhance oxidation promoting at oxide|metal interfacial regions...
Precise control of electron density at catalyst active sites enables regulation surface chemistry for the optimal rate and selectivity to products. Here, an ultrathin catalytic film amorphous alumina (4 nm) was integrated into a condenser device that enabled tunable depletion from layer correspondingly stronger Lewis acidity. The had following structure: alumina/graphene/HfO2 dielectric (70 nm)/p-type Si. Application positive voltages up +3 V between graphene p-type Si resulted in electrons...

To solve the problem that wax appearance temperature (WAT) acquired by conventional method is not suitable and effective to subsurface live crude oil dark oil, a way measure WAT of varying in properties explored using characteristics ultrasonic transmission through media. In measurement with ultrasonic, as dropped, solid crystallized from crude, decline effect would be strengthened during ultrasonic. The head wave frequency changed process; turning point was precipitation could obtained...
A general and practical approach for diverse dealkenylative functionalization of olefin-containing substrates has been developed through the one-pot formation utilization pro-aromatic 1,4-dihydropyridazines using tetrazine as key cycloaddition reagent. Triggered by either excitation or oxidation, targeted C-C bonds in 1,4-dihydropyridazine intermediates could be readily cleaved to generate alkyl radicals subsequent transformations. Diverse carbon-carbon carbon-hetero bond forming protocols,...

Production of biofuels from biomass resources has received wide attention because the current energy crisis. Recently, significant interest been directed towards selective hydrogenolysis 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to produce biofuel 2, 5-dimethylfuran (DMF). In this study, non-noble Ni–Cu catalysts with various Ni/Cu ratios, supported on titanium silicalite-1 (TS-1), were prepared through a solid-phase grinding method and used catalyze HMF DMF under hydrogen atmosphere. The structure...
The acid sites of phosphorus-containing zeosils were probed through a combination solid characterization, density functional theory calculations, and kinetic interrogations, establishing their weakly Brønsted-acidic character. Because the disparity in acid-site strength, P-zeosils catalyzed probe chemistry isopropanol dehydration slower than aluminosilicate zeolites by an order magnitude on active-site basis. Propene selectivity during remained 20–30% higher that aluminosilicates,...
