Au nanoparticles deposited on the external surfaces of TS-1: Enhanced stability and activity for direct propylene epoxidation with H2 and O2
Feng, Xiang; Duan, Xuezhi; Qian, Gang; Zhou, Xinggui; Chen, De; Yuan, Weikang (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Au/TS-1 catalysts prepared by deposition–precipitation method are very promising for direct propylene epoxidation with H2 and O2. However, the catalysts usually suffer from rapid deactivation. In this work, calcined TS-1 ... -
Au/uncalcined TS-1 catalysts for direct propene epoxidation with H2 and O2: Effects of Si/Ti molar ratio and Au loading
Feng, Xiang; Duan, Xuezhi; Yang, Jia; Qian, Gang; Zhou, Xinggui; Chen, De; Yuan, Weikang (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)For direct propene epoxidation with H2/O2, TS-1 with blocked micropores (TS-1-B) is recognized as an attractive support for Au catalysts with enhanced stability and activity by suppressing the deactivation caused by micropore ... -
Charge-Tuned CO Activation over a χ‑Fe5C2 Fischer−Tropsch Catalyst
Chen, Bingxu; Wang, Di; Duan, Xuezhi; Liu, Wei; Li, Yefei; Qian, Gang; Yuan, Weikang; Holmen, Anders; Zhou, Xinggui; Chen, De (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We performed DFT calculations to understand CO activation over a χ-Fe5C2 Fischer–Tropsch catalyst. The χ-Fe5C2 catalyst exhibits unique CO activation behaviors, and the BEP relation is nearly valid for this system. The ... -
