Wood pulverised using a ball mill was dissolved in an α-keto acid, pyruvic acid, and two aldehydic carboxylic acids, namely glyoxylic acid and formic acid, at room temperature.

This paper examines the leaching patterns of pyruvic acid, and relates this to similar patterns of oxalic, glyoxylic and malonic acids in a further attempt to clarify the mechanism of the corrosion process. It appears that these acids selectively leach boron to a greater extent than other cations, and as boron is part of the E-glass matrix rather than just an interstitial ion, this would explain the means by which these relatively weak acids are able to corrode the glass fibres. It is well known that oxalic acid forms strong complexes with boron, and it is likely that other dicarboxylic acids or carboxylic acids with appropriately placed ligand groups (e.g. glyoxylic acid) will do likewise. This work presents a study of the rate of strength loss and the rate of leaching of cations from E-glass fibres with particular emphasis on boron.

The present study investigates a process for the selective production of hydrogen from the catalytic decomposition of formic acid in the presence of iridium and iridium–palladium nanoparticles under various conditions. It was found that a loading of 1 wt.% of 2% palladium in the presence of 1% iridium over activated charcoal led to a 43% conversion of formic acid to hydrogen at room temperature after 4 h. Increasing the temperature to 60 °C led to further decomposition and an improvement in conversion yield to 63%. Dilution of formic acid from 0.5 to 0.2 M improved the decomposition, reaching conversion to 81%. The reported process could potentially be used in commercial applications.

Ag–Pd alloys deposited on an amine-functionalized UiO-66(NH2–UiO-66) have been successfully prepared via a pre-coordination method and used as a AgPd@NH2–UiO-66 catalyst with 100% H2 selectivity and a high catalytic activity.
