  2. Aluminium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxide

    Aluminium oxide (or aluminium(III) oxide) is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula Al 2 O 3. It is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides, and specifically identified as aluminium oxide. It is commonly called alumina and may also be called aloxide, aloxite, or alundum in various forms and ...

  3. Methylaluminoxane - Wikipedia

    Second, it abstracts a ligand from the methylated precatalysts, forming an electrophilic, coordinatively unsaturated catalysts that can undergo ethylene insertion. This activated catalyst is an ion pair between a cationic catalyst and an weakly basic MAO-derived anion. [7] MAO also functions as scavenger for protic impurities.

  4. Activated alumina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activated_alumina

    Activated alumina is manufactured from aluminium hydroxide by dehydroxylating it in a way that produces a highly porous material; this material can have a surface area significantly over 200 m 2 /g. The compound is used as a desiccant (to keep things dry by adsorbing water from the air) and as a filter of fluoride , arsenic and selenium in ...

  5. Industrial catalysts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_catalysts

    The catalyst the industry use is a promoted iron catalyst, where the promoters can be K 2 O (potassium oxide), Al 2 O 3 (aluminium oxide) and CaO (calcium oxide) and the basic catalytic material is iron. The most common is to use fixed bed reactors for the synthesis catalyst.

  6. Aluminium oxide nanoparticle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxide_nanoparticle

    In addition to these areas, used as a catalyst and carrier of catalysts. Nanoscale oxide due to the small diameter of the particles/fibers, high specific surface area and activity associated with the defects, and the specific structure of the nanoparticles (the volume and size of pores, degree of crystallinity, phase composition, structure, and ...

  7. Catalytic oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_oxidation

    Typical catalysts are platinum, and redox-active oxides of iron, vanadium, and molybdenum. In many cases, catalysts are modified with a host of additives or promoters that enhance rates or selectivities. Important homogeneous catalysts for the oxidation of organic compounds are carboxylates of cobalt, iron, and manganese

  8. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    The catalysts are heterogeneous solids that interact with gaseous reagents. [41] The catalyst typically consists of finely divided iron bound to an iron oxide carrier containing promoters possibly including aluminium oxide, potassium oxide, calcium oxide, potassium hydroxide, [42] molybdenum, [43] and magnesium oxide.
