Methane Cracking over Cobalt Molybdenum Carbides.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

The catalytic behaviour of Co₃Mo₃C, Co₆Mo₆C, Co₃Mo₃N and Co₆Mo₆N for methane cracking has been studied to determine the relationship between the methane cracking activity and the chemical composition. The characterisation of post-reaction samples showed a complex phase composition with the presence of Co₃Mo₃C, ?-Co and ?-Mo₂C as catalytic phases and the deposition of different forms of carbon during reaction.

Bottom-up Design of Bimetallic Cobalt-Molybdenum Carbides/Oxides for Overall Water Splitting.

Project description:Earth-abundant transition-metal-based catalysts for electrochemical water splitting are critical for sustainable energy schemes. In this work, we use a rational design method for the synthesis of ultrasmall and highly dispersed bimetallic CoMo carbide/oxide particles deposited on graphene oxide. Thermal conversion of the molecular precursors [H3 PMo12 O40 ], Co(OAc)2 ?4?H2 O and melamine in the presence of graphene oxide gives the mixed carbide/oxide (Co6 Mo6 C2 /Co2 Mo3 O8 ) nanoparticle composite deposited on highly dispersed, N,P-doped carbon. The resulting composite shows outstanding electrocatalytic water-splitting activity for both the oxygen evolution and hydrogen evolution reaction, and superior performance to reference samples including commercial 20?% Pt/C & IrO2 . Electrochemical and other materials analyses indicate that Co6 Mo6 C2 is the main active phase in the composite, and the N,P-doping of the carbon matrix increases the catalytic activity. The facile design could in principle be extended to multiple bimetallic catalyst classes by tuning of the molecular metal oxide precursor.

Photocatalytic Decomposition of an Azo Dye Using Transition-Metal-Doped Tungsten and Molybdenum Carbides.

Project description:The preparation, characterization, and photocatalytic application of tungsten or molybdenum carbides (Ni-WC, 1, Co-WC, 2, Ni-MoC, 3, Co-MoC, 4, NiCo-WC, 5, NiCo-MoC, 6, NiFe-WC, 7, and NiFe-MoC, 8) doped with transition metals (Fe, Co, and Ni) are reported. These transition-metal carbide (TMC) particles show that the submicrometer globular particles agglomerated to form larger particles, with smaller crystallites present on the surface of the large particles. These crystallite sizes range between 4 and 34 nm (as calculated from X-ray diffraction data) depending on the metal dopant and type of carbide. Oxidation of the metal carbides is evident from the two sets of photoelectron lines present in the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of the W 4f area. The Mo 3d spectra reveal four sets of photoelectron lines associated with oxidized MoO2 and MoO3 as well as Mo2+ and Mo3+ associated with MoC1-x . The XPS of the dopant metals Ni, Co, and Fe also show partial oxidation. The photocatalytic decomposition of Congo red (an azo dye) is used as a model reaction to determine the photocatalytic activities of the transition-metal carbides, which is related to the TMCs' optical band gap energies.

Upgrading furfural to bio-fuels using supported molybdenum carbides: study of the support effect.

Project description:Materials exhibiting different textural and surface properties (SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2 and ZSM-5) were investigated as supports for Mo carbides in the upgrading of furfural (FF) in liquid phase to produce 2-methylfuran (2MF). The state of the catalysts after carburization, passivation, and reactivation under a hydrogen atmosphere was investigated by XAS analysis. The effect of the supports was observed in the first step of the reaction, i.e., the hydrogenation of FF to furfuryl acid and related to Lewis acidic and basic sites. The nature of the supports was also relevant to the final state of the Mo carbides after carburization, passivation, and reactivation. The comparison of the materials showed that Mo2C/SiO2 was the least decarburized catalyst after reactivation, and the most active in converting furfural, while the Mo2C/TiO2 system presented smaller carbide particles after carburization and more disorganized particles after reactivation. Mo carbide supported on SiO2 and on TiO2 were found to be suitable catalysts for producing a mixture containing 2-methylfuran and C10 compounds with potential application as biofuel.

A Study of 15N/14N Isotopic Exchange over Cobalt Molybdenum Nitrides.

Project description:The 14N/15N isotopic exchange pathways over Co3Mo3N, a material of interest as an ammonia synthesis catalyst and for the development of nitrogen transfer reactions, have been investigated. Both the homomolecular and heterolytic exchange processes have been studied, and it has been shown that lattice nitrogen species are exchangeable. The exchange behavior was found to be a strong function of pretreatment with ca. 25% of lattice N atoms being exchanged after 40 min at 600 °C after N2 pretreatment at 700 °C compared to only 6% following similar Ar pretreatment. This observation, for which the potential contribution of adsorbed N species can be discounted, is significant in terms of the application of this material. In the case of the Co6Mo6N phase, regeneration to Co3Mo3N under 15N2 at 600 °C occurs concurrently with 14N15N formation. These observations demonstrate the reactivity of nitrogen in the Co-Mo-N system to be a strong function of pretreatment and worthy of further consideration.

An efficient molybdenum disulfide/cobalt diselenide hybrid catalyst for electrochemical hydrogen generation.

Project description:The electroreduction of water for sustainable hydrogen production is a critical component of several developing clean-energy technologies, such as water splitting and fuel cells. However, finding a cheap and efficient alternative catalyst to replace currently used platinum-based catalysts is still a prerequisite for the commercialization of these technologies. Here we report a robust and highly active catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction that is constructed by in situ growth of molybdenum disulfide on the surface of cobalt diselenide. In acidic media, the molybdenum disulfide/cobalt diselenide catalyst exhibits fast hydrogen evolution kinetics with onset potential of -11?mV and Tafel slope of 36?mV per decade, which is the best among the non-noble metal hydrogen evolution catalysts and even approaches to the commercial platinum/carbon catalyst. The high hydrogen evolution activity of molybdenum disulfide/cobalt diselenide hybrid is likely due to the electrocatalytic synergistic effects between hydrogen evolution-active molybdenum disulfide and cobalt diselenide materials and the much increased catalytic sites.

Enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction on hybrids of cobalt phosphide and molybdenum phosphide.

Project description:Production of hydrogen from water electrolysis has stimulated the search of sustainable electrocatalysts as possible alternatives. Recently, cobalt phosphide (CoP) and molybdenum phosphide (MoP) received great attention owing to their superior catalytic activity and stability towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) which rivals platinum catalysts. In this study, we synthesize and study a series of catalysts based on hybrids of CoP and MoP with different Co/Mo ratio. The HER activity shows a volcano shape and reaches a maximum for Co/Mo = 1. Tafel analysis indicates a change in the dominating step of Volmer-Hyrovský mechanism. Interestingly, X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed a major ternary interstitial hexagonal CoMoP2 crystal phase is formed which enhances the electrochemical activity.

Chromium carbides and cyclopropenylidenes.

Project description:Carbon tetrabromide can be reduced with CrBr2 in THF to form a dinuclear carbido complex, [CrBr2(thf)2)][CrBr2(thf)3](μ-C), along with formation of [CrBr3(thf)3]. An X-ray diffraction (XRD) study of the pyridine adduct displayed a dinuclear structure bridged by a carbido ligand between 5- and 6-coordinate chromium centers. The carbido complex reacted with two equivalents of aldehydes to form α,β-unsaturated ketones. Treatment of the carbido complex with alkenes resulted in a formal double-cyclopropanation of alkenes by the carbido moiety to afford spiropentanes. Isotope labeling studies using a 13C-enriched carbido complex, [CrBr2(thf)2)][CrBr2(thf)3](μ-13C), identified that the quaternary carbon in the spiropentane framework was delivered by carbide transfer from the carbido complex. Terminal and internal alkynes also reacted with the carbido complex to form cyclopropenylidene complexes. A solid-state structure of the diethylcyclopropenylidene complex, prepared from 3-hexyne, showed a mononuclear cyclopropenylidene chromium(iii) structure.

Selectivity descriptors of the catalytic n-hexane cracking process over 10-membered ring zeolites.

Project description:Zeolite-mediated catalytic cracking of alkanes is pivotal in the petrochemical and refining industry, breaking down heavier hydrocarbon feedstocks into fuels and chemicals. Its relevance also extends to emerging technologies such as biomass and plastic valorization. Zeolite catalysts, with shape selectivity and selective adsorption capabilities, enhance efficiency and sustainability due to their well-defined network of pores, dimensionality, cages/cavities, and channels. This study focuses on the alkane cracking over 10-membered ring (10-MR) zeolites under industrially relevant conditions. Through a series of characterizations, including operando UV-vis spectroscopy and solid-state NMR spectroscopy, we intend to address mechanistic debates about the alkane cracking mechanism, aiming to understand the dependence of product selectivity on zeolite topologies. The findings highlight topology-dependent mechanisms, particularly the role of intersectional void spaces in zeolite ZSM-5, influencing aromatic-based product selectivity. This work provides a unique understanding of zeolite-catalyzed hydrocarbon conversion, linking alkane activation steps to the traditional hydrocarbon pool mechanism, contributing to the fundamental knowledge of this crucial industrial process.

(2,2'-Bipyridine-?N,N')[2-tert-butyl-anilinato(2-)]dichloridooxido-molybdenum(VI) dichloro-methane hemisolvate.

Project description:The Mo(VI) atom in the title structure, [Mo(C(10)H(13)N)Cl(2)O(C(10)H(8)N(2))]·0.5CH(2)Cl(2), has a distorted octa-hedral coord-ination sphere with cis-orientated oxide and imide ligands, trans-chloride ligands and the 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) ligand N atoms lying trans to the oxide and imide ligands. An imide-ligand tert-butyl-methyl-group H atom makes a close approach with the oxide ligand (distance = 2.53?Å) and the imide-ligand N atom (distance = 2.41?Å). Another imide-ligand tert-butyl-methyl-group H atom makes a close approach to a chloride ligand (distance = 2.82?Å). One bipy-ligand ?-H atom makes a close approach to the oxide ligand (distance = 2.4?Å) and the other ?-H atom makes a close approach to the imide-ligand phenyl-ring ortho-H atom (distance = 2.52?Å). These close approaches suggest the presence of weak intra-molecular hydrogen bonds. The solvent molecule has been modelled under consideration of half-occupancy.
