The results indicated that no oxidation of HCHO into CO_2 occurs at room temperature, but the adsorption of HCHO occurs on the catalyst surface. With the increase of gas hourly space velocity(GHSV) and inlet HCHO concentration, the time to reach saturation was shortened proportionally. The results of the in situ DRIFTS, Density functional theory calculations and temperature programmed desorption(TPD) showed that HCHO was completely oxidized into HCOOH over Cu-Al_2O_3 at room temperature. With increasing the temperature in a flow of helium, HCOOH was completely decomposed into CO_2 over the catalyst surface, and the deactivated Cu-Al_2O_3 is regenerated at the same time. In addition, although Cu had no obvious influence on the adsorption of HCHO on Al_2O_3, Cu dramatically lowered the decomposition temperature of HCOOH into CO_2. It was shown that Cu-Al_2O_3 catalyst had a good ability for the removal of HCHO, and appeared to be promising for its application in destroying HCHO at room temperature.展开更多

Microstructure, mechanical properties and electrical resistivity were investigated systematically using metallography, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, mechanical and electrical properties testing. The results indicate that an appropriate amount of La can homogenize the distribution of Al_2O_3. As such, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and elongation of Cu-Al_2O_3-La are greatly increased. Some semi-coherent interface between Cu and Al_2O_3 is found, which means a low interface energy. The grain shape of Cu changes to irregular band with the addition of La. This change results in a density decrease of grain boundary and reduces electrical resistance. Lanthanum may exist in the form of La_2O_3.展开更多

In the method, urea was dissolved in nitrate solution and hydrolyzed to produce OH- as precipitator after the solution was heated to 90℃. After 6h, the precipitation was accomplished. The evaluation results of the catalyst activity showed that this catalyst had comparable catalytic activities to the industrial catalyst, and reached its maximum activity at 250℃. At reaction conditions of 250℃, 3MPa,and SV=7600h-1, the STY of methanol was 0.38g/（mL·h） with syngas compositing of H2,CO, CO2, and N2 atmolar ratio of 65.9∶27.1∶2.9∶4.1. X-ray Diffraction （XRD） revealed that the particle size of CuO and ZnO was about 200nm, and Al existed in the form of ZnAl2O4 spinel in the catalysts.展开更多
