Title: | Zinc hydroxyapatite catalyst for decomposition of 2-propanol | Authors: | Low, Hou Ran Avdeev, Maxim Ramesh, Kanaparthi White, Timothy John |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | Low, H. R., Avdeev, M., Ramesh, K., & White, T. J. (2012). Zinc Hydroxyapatite Catalyst for Decomposition of 2-Propanol. Advanced Materials, 24(30), 4175-4179. | Series/Report no.: | Advanced materials | Abstract: | Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is attracting interest as a heterogeneous catalyst due to its “zeolitic” properties that allow tailoring of chemically active surface sites for specific applications. Here, the crystallographic modification of HAp through incorporation of zinc (Zn2+) was studied using diffraction and spectroscopic techniques. The preferential displacement of tunnel calcium (Ca2+) by covalently bonded Zn2+ inhibits crystal growth and promotes the retention of an amorphous (10-20 wt%) component. In combination, these factors create chemically active surfaces that allow Zn-HAp materials to effectively absorb carbon monoxide (*characteristic vibration at ∼1711 cm-1) and catalyze the decomposition of 2-propanol. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/97147 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/10654 |
