Two key factors (i.e., pressure and temperature) were investigated to explore the effects of catalyst structure and physic-chemical properties (i.e., morphology, reducing property, oxygen storage capacity and specific surface area). The resulting materials were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution transmission electron micros-copy (HRTEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET),hydrogen temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and oxygen storage capac-ity (OSC) measurement, respectively. The experimental results showed that lower temperatures promoted production of hollow struc-ture nano-particulates. The particle morphology also changed significantly, i.e. the solid construction was first transferred to hollow structure then back to solid construction. The optimal conditions for obtaining hollow nano-particles were determined at 45 °C, 18.0–24.0 MPa.展开更多

Their crystal structures and acidities were determined by XRD and Hammett method, respectively. The activity of the catalyst was studied as function of Al 2O 3 content, calcination temperature and time in the esterification of acetic acid with butanol, and a conversion of 96 5% was obtained. The catalyst gave also higher yields in syntheses of ketals and acetals: cyclohexanone ethylene ketal(86 2%), acetophenone ethylene ketal(78 5%), acetylacetic ester ketal(88 5%), benzaldehyde glycol acetal(76 3%). The chemical structures of the products were confirmed by IR spectra.展开更多
