Oxidation of 2-propanol in alkaline electrolytes using platinum and ruthenium-based catalysts: prototype fuel cells and electrokinetics studies
DownloadFall 2011
Markiewicz, Matthew Eugene Paul
Alcohols are an attractive alternative to hydrogen fuel in fuel cells. They are energy dense, easy to store, transport, and they are readily available. Alkaline fuel cells have several kinetic advantages over acidic fuel cells, but they are sensitive to carbon dioxide. The fuel most studied in...

Molecular transition metal catalysts offer unique potential for the production of fine chemicals. Chemical processes carried out in the presence of well defined molecular catalysts often only require mild, easily accessible conditions, fewer sacrificial reagents, and can selectively produce a...

A method was developed to immobilize and reuse a catalyst for the asymmetric cycloisomerization of enynes. Immobilization is achieved through use of metal containing monomers, which are reacted with a cycloolefin via an alternating ring-opening metathesis polymerization, assembling a...

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in gaining a fundamental understanding of nanoparticle (NP) synthesis and reactivity due to their wide applicability in the fields of biomedicine, optoelectronics and catalysis. Although metal NPs with a small and narrow size distribution tend...

The use of transition metal catalysts - either homogeneous (discrete well-defined metal complexes) or heterogeneous (more poorly-defined metal surfaces) - play an important role in the transformations of small substrates into larger, value-added compounds. Although heterogeneous catalysts have...
