Kinetics of isomerisation of cyclohexene to methylcyclopentene proceeding as parallel reaction to hydrogenation of cyclohexene to cyclohexane on cobalt-molybdenum catalysts of different composition has been measured. The surface acidity of these catalysts was estimated from the difference in the adsorption of toluene and heptane which was measured by chromatographic method. In a series of catalysts containing molybdenum the acidity parallels isomerisation activity. Cobalt on alumina catalysts and alumina itself have greater acidity but exhibit lower isomerisation activity compared to the catalysts containing molybdenum.

Catalytic activity of nickel-molybdenum catalysts for methanation of carbon monoxide and hydrogen was studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry. The activity of NiMoOx systems exceeds that of carrier-free nickel if x < 2, and is conditioned by the oxidation degree of molybdenum, changing in dependence on the composition in the region Mo-MoO2. The activity of the catalysts is adversely affected by irradiation by fast neutrons, dose 28.1 Gy, or by γ rays using doses in the region 0.8-52 kGy. The system is most susceptible to irradiation in the region of low concentrations of the minor component (about 1 mol.%). The dependence of changes in catalytic activity of γ-irradiated samples on the dose exhibits a maximum in the range of 2-5 kGy. The changes in catalytic activity are stimulated by the change of reactivity of the starting mixed oxides, leading to different kinetics of their reduction and modification of their adsorption properties. The irradiation of the catalysts results in lowered concentration of the active centres for the methanation reaction.

The Difference

Reversible adsorption of heptane and benzene on model and industrial hydrodesulphurization molybdena catalysts has been studied by elution chromatographic method at 150 °C. An increase in the adsorption of heptane on sulphidation of adsorbents was small for Al2O3 and great for MoO3. Supported catalysts behaved as mixture of Al2O3 and MoO3.The portion of surface which can be transformed by sulphidation into MoS2 ranged from 0 to 65% for individual commercial catalysts, as determined from the change in heptane adsorption after sulphidation of a given sample. The polarity of catalysts, including their acidity, was estimated from the difference between adsorption of benzene and heptane. The polarity of model and industrial catalysts in oxidic form was similar to that of alumina in most cases. The decrease in the polarity after sulphidation of the adsorbents was small for Al2O3 and great for MoO3. The decrease in polarity resulting from sulphidation of supported catalysts was relatively small, since the reaction of MoO3 monolayer with hydrogen sulphide leads to partial reformation of the alumina surface. The acidity of supported sulphided hydrodesulphurization catalysts has been shown by this method to be comparable with the acidity of the support itself.

The polymerization kinetics of isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene) in benzene with butyllithium as the initiator was investigated by the gas chromatographic method. After completion of the initial period of the reaction, its order with respect to the initial concentration of initiator is negative at the concentrations of the latter between 0.01 and 0.25 mol/l, and positive at higher concentrations. A reaction scheme has been suggested with respect to the "cross" association of butyllithium and of the "living" oligoisoprene.

AbstractThe epitaxial growth kinetics of Co on Cu(100) are investigated with a kinetic solid-on-solid model. Two effects are found to dominate the growth of this system reflecting the difference in surface free energies betweenthe two materials: the difference of diffusion parameters, and the inability of Co to wet Cu(100) at lower temperatures.

Hg Accumulation

Environmental contextMercury (Hg) is a major environmental contaminant due to its toxicity, accumulation and biomagnification along the food chain. We demonstrate that Hg accumulation by biofilms, one possible entry point for Hg into food webs, is rapid and depends on biofilm structure and composition. These findings have important implications for the understanding of Hg bioavailability and effects towards aquatic microorganisms. AbstractMercury contamination is of high concern due to its bioaccumulation, toxicity and biomagnification along the food chain. Biofilms can accumulate Hg and contribute to its incorporation in freshwater food webs. Nevertheless, the accumulation kinetics of Hg by biofilms is not well described and understood. The aim of the present study was thus to gain mechanistic understanding of Hg accumulation by biofilms. Kinetics of Hg uptake by biofilms of different ages (e.g. different compositions) was characterised by determining Hg contents in biofilms with and without a cysteine-washing step. Hg accumulation was rapid in both biofilms, with the uptake rate constant of the younger biofilm 10 times higher than that of the older biofilm. Moreover, accumulated Hg reached a plateau at 24h exposure in the younger biofilm, whereas it increased linearly in the older biofilm. The observed difference in Hg uptake by the studied biofilms is likely a result of the difference in biofilm thickness (and thus Hg diffusion inside the biofilm matrix) and microbial composition. These findings have important implications for the understanding of Hg bioavailability and effects towards aquatic microorganisms.

Five esters of luciferin were synthesized and compared with native luciferin as substrates for firefly luciferase expressed in live intact mammalian cells. The esters themselves were not substrates for purified luciferase, but four were substrates for a purified esterase and all appeared to be hydrolysed to luciferin within mammalian cells. At a substrate concentration of 0.01 mM, the peak luminescence from the cos cells expressing luciferase was up to 6-fold greater with the esters than with unmodified luciferin. At 0.1 mM, the difference between luciferin and the esters was decreased. The kinetics of the luminescent signal with the different luciferin esters varied significantly, indicating possible differences in the rates of uptake, breakdown and enzyme inhibition. The esters did not support luminescence from Escherichia coli cells expressing firefly luciferase, suggesting a lack of appropriate esterase activity in this particular strain. The esters could be useful for the assay of luciferase expression in intact mammalian cells when luciferin levels are limiting, for example in tissues, and in plants. Alternative luciferin derivatives may allow further improvements in sensitivity.

ABSTRACTThe kinetics of Ge lateral overgrowth on SiO2 with line-shaped Si seeds is examined. The growth process is described by the difference between the growth rates of Ge on (100) planes (GR100) and <311> facets (GR311). The theoretical calculations well reproduce the growth kinetics. It is shown that narrowing the line-seeds helps Ge coalescence and flat film formation.

Drying phenomena of oil palm frond waste as agriculture waste was observed using simple batch oven dryer. The operation temperatures were 50, 80 and 120 C. The sample of oil palm frond was weighed periodically every 30 minutes. Moisture content, shrinkage phenomena and drying kinetic model were investigated to the difference operation temperature. Experimental result exhibited that temperature influent significantly to the drying rate. The water transport controlled by diffuse mechanism. Shrinkage occurred in radial direction and decreased the size to almost 65% from initial size. In longitudinal direction almost is not change of size.

Nanopore Confinement

AbstractAcid-base titration and metal sorption experiments were performed on both mesoporous alumina and alumina particles under various ionic strengths. It has been demonstrated that surface chemistry and ion sorption within nanopores can be significantly modified by a nano-scale space confinement. As the pore size is reduced to a few nanometers, the difference between surface acidity constants (ΔpK = pK2 – pK1) decreases, giving rise to a higher surface charge density on a nanopore surface than that on an unconfined solid-solution interface. The change in surface acidity constants results in a shift of ion sorption edges and enhances ion sorption on that nanopore surfaces.
