The structural and electronic promoting effect of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes on supported Pd nanoparticles for selective olefin hydrogenation

Transfer hydrogenation of phenol on supported Pd catalysts using formic acid as an alternative hydrogen source

“…Once the reactor was cooled to room temperature, the products were analyzed on a Shimadzu GC 2014 equipped other catalysts such as AC, MIL-101, and TiO 2 -AC. This result is consistent with previous finding that the Pd diffraction is difficult to be detected by XRD at low loading [35]. TiO 2 -AC is a promising composite used as support in phenol hydrogenation due to its tunable surface property [36].…”

Functional carbons and carbon nanohybrids for the catalytic conversion of biomass to renewable chemicals in the condensed phase

“…Similar effects on particle shape were observed for Pd when varying the acid-base character of the surface by functionalization with oxygen or nitrogen containing groups [163]. In general, the interaction with the N-containing functional groups promotes the catalytic activity of the metal [164][165][166].…”

One-dimensional nitrogen-containing carbon nanostructures

“…The CNTs, thermally treated under flowing He at 800 °C in order to remove polyaromatic impurities on their surface, were also oxidized via a HNO 3 vapor treatment in the gas phase at 200250 °C and then functionalized to NCNTs by heating under NH 3 at 200800 °C [280,281]. N-containing functional groups have similarly been generated on the surface of partially oxidized MWCNTs with HNO 3 via post-treatment in NH 3 /He mixture [102,[282][283][284][285]. The treatment temperature was varied in order to tune the amount and type of nitrogen-and oxygen-containing functional groups [280][281][282].…”
