The selective dissolution of matrices has been used to transform solids to sols for DLS analysis. DLS/STS (from solid to sol) technique was tested on a wide number of different sets of supported metal catalysts (Pt, Pd, Ru metals and Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, C3N4, carbon and polymers as supports). The transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (TEM/XRD) results for the initial supported catalysts and the DLS results for the sols prepared from them showed good agreement with each other. Moreover, it has been shown that this approach can identify the minor contamination of catalysts by large particles or aggregates which are difficult to detect by TEM/XRD.

Furfural alcohol (FA) as the main product of the selective FF hydrogenation is a source of value-added chemicals. In this paper, the results of the study of ruthenium catalysts based on hyper-crosslinked polystyrene (PS) in the selective hydrogenation of FF to FA are presented. Two types of ruthenium catalysts: nanoparticles of RuO2 and Ru0 stabilized in the PS pores were synthesized and compared. The novelty of this work is in the comparison of the PS stabilized Ru0 and RuO2 nanoparticles were performed and differences in their catalytic properties were shown. The BET, TEM, and SAXS data showed the formation of Ru-containing nanoparticles similar in size and structure for both catalysts. The comparison of the catalytic properties of the Ru catalysts showed that the catalyst with Ru0 (Ru-PS) exhibits higher values of FF conversion (99 %) and selectivity to FA (96 %). It can be...

A comparison of the catalytic properties of as-synthesized and reduced (denoted "r") catalysts as well as Pd-Cu alloy and monometallic palladium NPs showed a considerable enhancement of the catalytic performance of Pd-Cu/HPS-r compared to other catalysts studied, resulting in about 100 % FF conversion, 95.2 % selectivity for FA and a TOF of 1209 h-1 . This was attributed to the enrichment of the NP surface with copper atoms, disrupting the furan ring adsorption, and to the presence of both zerovalent and cationic palladium and copper species, resulting in optimal hydrogen and FF adsorption. These factors along with exceptional stability of the catalyst in ten consecutive catalytic cycles make it highly promising in practical applications.
The effect of Al ion implantation on the properties of mesoporous aluminosilicate mineral phases ... more The effect of Al ion implantation on the properties of mesoporous aluminosilicate mineral phases of the SBA-15 type was studied. The implantation of Al was performed immediately under conditions of the synthesis of SBA-15 in a weakly acidic medium (pH ∼ 2.9). It was found that, under these conditions, the amount of Al that can be implanted into the SBA-15 framework is limited (a maximum of 7.2 mol %). According to XPS data, aluminum ions were implanted into the matrix of silica rather than occurring on the surface as an individual phase. The study of nitrogen adsorption at 77 K and the results obtained by X-ray diffractometry and high-resolution electron microscopy suggest that Al-SBA-15 materials exhibited a hexagonal structure of channel pores of the same diameter of 8.3 nm, and the unit cell parameter was 12.3 nm. The degree of crystallinity of the material increased with the concentration of Al.
