Article Citation - WoS: 1Outperformance of CaO-Incorporated Alumina-Supported Pd Catalysts in Methanol Decomposition(Springer, 2025) Eryildirim, Busra; Oktar, Nuray; Dogu, DorukThis study aimed to investigate the impact of CaO incorporation to alumina-supported Pd catalysts on the methanol decomposition reaction. For this purpose, mayenite, alumina and/or calcium oxide-supported Pd catalysts were synthesized. The synthesized catalysts were characterized by XRD, FTIR, Laser Raman spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption, pyridine adsorbed DRIFTS, CO2-TPD, XPS, SEM-EDS, and ICP-OES techniques. Catalytic activity tests were carried out over a 6 h reaction period in the range of 100-400 degrees C. The results of the characterization and activity tests showed that the addition of CaO had significant effects on the physicochemical properties of the catalyst as well as on the catalytic activity. By adding CaO to the alumina support material, the acidity was reduced, thus reducing the selectivity for dimethyl ether (DME) formation, which is significantly high for the 1Pd@Al2O3 catalyst, and increasing the H2 and CO selectivity. The mayenite-supported catalyst (1Pd@SGM), which contains alumina and calcium oxide in its unique crystal structure, showed an excellent catalytic performance close to complete methanol conversion with DME selectivity below 1% at 400 degrees C. In the stability test carried out at 350 degrees C for 6 h with 1Pd@Al2O3, 1Pd@SGM, and 1Pd@48CaO@Al2O3 catalysts used in the temperature scan, it was concluded that all catalysts were stable and 1Pd@SGM catalyst showed higher catalytic activity than the others.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 27Nanocrystalline Metal Organic Framework (mil-101) Stabilized Copper Nanoparticles: Highly Efficient Nanocatalyst for the Hydrolytic Dehydrogenation of Methylamine Borane(Elsevier Science Sa, 2018) Baguc, Ismail Burak; Ertas, Ilknur Efecan; Yurderi, Mehmet; Bulut, Ahmet; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Kaya, MuratThe copper nanoparticles stabilized by nanocrystalline MIL-101 framework (Cu/nano-MIL-101) was reproducibly prepared by following double solvent method combined with liquid phase chemical reduction technique. The characterization of the resulting new material was done by using various analytical techniques including ICP-OES, P-XRD, N-2-adsorption-desorption, XPS, FE-SEM, SEM-EDX, BFTEM and HAADF-STEM; the summation of their results reveals that the formation of well-dispersed and very small sized (0.8 nm) copper nanoparticles within nanocrystalline MIL-101 framework. The catalytic performance of Cu/nano-MIL-101 in terms of activity and stability was tested in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of methylamine borane (CH3NH2BH3), which has been considered as one of the attractive materials for the efficient chemical hydrogen storage. Cu/nano-MIL-101 catalyzes the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of methylamine borane with high activity (turnover frequency; TOF = 257 mot H-2/mol Cu x h) and conversion ( > 99%) under air at room temperature. Moreover, these nano-MIL-101 framework stabilized copper nanoparticles show great durability against to sintering and leaching, which make Cu/nano-MIL-101 reusable nanocatalyst in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of methylamine-borane. Cu/nano-MIL-101 nanocatalyst retains 83% of its inherent activity at complete conversion even at 10th recycle in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of methylamine borane.
