The catalytic activity of carriers: θ‒Al2O3, γ‒Al2O3, 5A, 4A, 3A and 13X and the oxides of metals of variable valency ‒ NiO, La2O3, CuO, MoO3, MgO, V2O5, WO3, CoO, Cr2O3, ZnO, ZrO2, CeO2, Fe2O3, supported on the effective carrier γ‒Al2O3 by the method of capillary impregnation of the support with solutions of nitric salts of metals were investigated in the process of carbon dioxide conversion of methane (DRM). The optimal technological regimes for the process were: the reaction temperature -800 °C, the space velocity of the initial reactants ‒ 1500 h-1 with a methane to carbon dioxide ratio equal to 1. It was found that among the studied catalysts the highest activity is shown by the NiO/γ‒Al2O3 catalyst, where the yields of hydrogen and carbon monoxide reaches 45.4 and 42.4% by volume, respectively, when methane conversion is 89%. The XRF method showed that the content of alumina and nickel oxide after the reaction remained unchanged at 96.7 and 3.0%, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small angle X-ray scattering (XRS) determined that nickel-containing NiO/γ‒Al2O3 catalyst form nickel nanoparticles (6.4‒10 and 50‒150 nm) and a uniform their distribution on the surface of the carrier takes place. These physical chemical characteristics have a positive effect on the activity of NiO/γ‒Al2O3 catalyst in the process of carbon dioxide conversion of methane to synthesis gas.

The application field of materials based on lanthanum orthophosphate (LaPO4) including nanomaterials, has been permanently extending recently. The high level of mechanical properties and the compatibility with numerous oxides make it possible to consider the possibility of using lanthanum orthophosphate as a composite material for construction purposes. This application is particularly promising when nanoparticles with quasi-1D morphology (nanorods) are used. The high isomorphic capacity of the LaPO4-based phase for alkaline-earth ions and ions of lanthanides and actinides, high chemical stability, and high radiation hardness make promising the application of this compound as a matrix for immobilization of radioactive wastes. The possibility of obtaining lanthanum phosphate (LaPO4) by the hydrothermal method is considered in the work. Effects of pH, temperature and time of processing of hydrothermal synthesis on the morphology and structure of monostructured lanthanum phosphate are studied. It has been established that, with the increase of pH, the morphology of phosphate changed, the size of the crystallites increased, while the crystal structure changed from hexagonal to monoclinic. The catalytic activity of nanostructured low-percentage Mg-Ni-Co-catalysts based on high-temperature KT-11-TO grade fiberglass obtained by “solution combustion” (SC) method was studied at carbon dioxide conversion of methane (CDCM). The physico-chemical characteristics of samples were studied using X-ray diffraction phase analysis, temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The X-ray phase method showed the formation of several phases during the synthesis: NiCo2O4, 3CoO·5NiO, MgO, and Co3O4. According to TEM, active catalyst particles have a size of 5-10 nm proving the nanoscale size of the active component. TPR method showed the shift of maximum hydrogen absorption to higher temperatures. Apparently, it occurs due to the interaction of the active components with the carrier till the new phase formation. On the basis of the gas chromatographic analysis the high activity of fiberglass catalysts at the carbon dioxide conversion of methane into synthesis gas with a conversion of the initial components close to ~ 100% was disclosed. The optimal technological conditions for the CDCM process were established – a temperature in the range of 850-900°С, the volumetric rate of initial reactants 4000-10000 h-1 with a ratio of methane to carbon dioxide equal to 1.

AbstractPeriodic polymer/metal (Pt or Ag) and polymer/semiconductor (PbS) nanocomposites are prepared using block copolymers dilated with carbon dioxide (CO2) as templates. Specifically, organometallic compounds (metal precursors) are dissolved into supercritical CO2 and infused into polystyrene-block-poly(acrylic acid) or polystyrene-block-poly(vinylpyridine) copolymers. Upon infusion, the acid or pyridine block selectively binds the metal precursor. The excess is removed from the polystyrene phase by subsequent CO2 extraction. Reduction of the bound organometallic with hydrogen or hydrogen sulfide yields the desired metal or semiconductor clusters, which are confined to the precursor-binding domain and remain positioned on the copolymer lattice. The composites are characterized by transmission electron microscopy, x-ray scattering and electron diffraction.

Abstract In the present study, mesoporous silica materials doped with metal ions (Al3+, Ti4+, Zr4+) were synthesized and characterized by a combination of various techniques, such as small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), nitrogen adsorption/desorption at 77 K, elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was shown that the metal ion doped samples retained their porous structure, which was similar to that of parent SBA-15. The synthesized M-SBA-15 samples (M=Al3+, Ti4+, Zr4+) were evaluated in terms of adsorption of carbon dioxide and methane at 303 K. It was observed, that metal doping enhances carbon dioxide adsorption in comparison with purely siliceous sample, while low effect of metal doping on methane adsorption was observed.

In this work, advanced polymer nanocomposites comprising of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and nanodiamonds (NDs) were developed using a single-step solution-casting method. The properties of the prepared PVA/NDs nanocomposites were investigated using Raman spectroscopy, small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS/WAXS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). It was revealed that the tensile strength improved dramatically with increasing ND content in the PVA matrix, suggesting a strong interaction between the NDs and the PVA. SEM, TEM, and SAXS showed that NDs were present in the form of agglomerates with an average size of ~60 nm with primary particles of diameter ~5 nm. These results showed that NDs could act as a good nanofiller for PVA in terms of improving its stability and mechanical properties.

Existing (production of urea, dimethyl carbonate, polypropylene carbonate) and promising (production of methanol, synthesis gas, monomers dedicated to synthesis of polyurethanes and polycarbonate) chemical technologies which any, time soon, may become CO2 based economy for producing motor fuels and basic chemicals have been overviewed. Based on estimates of CO2 removals in these processes, it has been concluded that there is a potential for developing technologies to produce methanol from CO2 to a competitive cost of the target product. It is expected that interest in this process will decrease if stable carbon dioxide conversion catalysts for methane are introduced into the market.
