    Notes: Abstract Bulk tungsten carbide has been prepared from ammonium paratungstate. Oxidic oxygen in relatively small amount is always present on the WC surface regardless of the method of carburization. Tungsten(VI) oxide in Al2(WO4)3 can be reduced directly and in apparently one single step to the elemental W(0) state by Ar+ bombardment. Under H2 the reduction starts at 720 K. In 12 and 28% W03 supported on γ-Al2O3 and in Al2(WO4)3, almost 90% of the tungsten could be converted to the carbide form. Extensive hydrogenolysis products for n-hexane reactions on freshly prepared WC were observed while selectivity to isomerization associated with decrease in activity occurs upon exposure of the WC to oxygen at 620 K. Supported tungsten carbide(s) and oxycarbide(s) on γ-Al2O3 have comparable catalytic behaviour to those obtained on the bulk systems. The presence of Pt in these supported systems did not improve the catalytic performances and even did not show the catalytic properties of Pt. This was attributed to the severe conditions of catalyst preparations. Although the catalytic activity of tungsten carbide(s) obtained from the carburization of Al2(WO4)3 is very low, the selectivity suggests the presence of tungsten carbide plus some WO, species.

    Notes: Abstract The XPS of bulk tungsten carbide, partially oxidized WC surfaces at 373 and 573 K as well as tungsten trioxide have been reported. Bulk WC has been prepared from WO3 as a starting material in a mixture of CH4 (20%) and H2 (80%) at 1150 K for 4 h, while partially oxidized WC surfaces were prepared by oxygen chemisorption on a clean WC surface at 200 K, then the temperatures were raised to 373 and 573 K respectively. The XPS of a freshly prepared WC reveals the presence of a small amount of WO3 on the surface and a slightly higher concentration in the bulk. The oxygen-exposed fresh WC surfaces and surfaces treated at temperatures higher than 373 K show the presence of WO3 in a considerable quantity depending on the length and the treatment temperature. Ar+ bombardment of this partially oxidized surface reduces WO3 to WO2 and W(0), while WC is partially reduced to W(0). Isomerization reactions of alkanes on oxygen-exposed WC surface occurs in reality on a composite surface structure containing WC, WO3, WO2 and elemental W(0).

    Notes: Abstract The XPS spectra of bulk MoO2 and MoO3 are reported. Commercial MoO2 reveals the presence of multilayers of MoO3 covering bulk MoO2. In situ reduction of bulk MoO3 by H2 at temperatures equal to 623 K and less than 673 K reduces the superficial layer(s) to mainly MoO2. Such phase is characterised by a certain density of states in terms of the free 4d, 5s electrons localised mainly on the Mo atoms and observed in the valence band energy region at the Fermi-level in the XP spectrum of this system. Catalytic reactions on the MoO2 phase of 2-methylpentane at atmospheric pressure using a mixture of the hydrocarbon (5 Torr) with hydrogen (755 Torr) yield 3-methylpentane andn-hexane as the main products in roughly equal amounts. These results are interpreted in terms of dual sites on the MoO2 surface.

    Notes: Abstract Platinum catalysts have been prepared by depositing on alumina monodispersed particles of platinum prepared in reversed micellar solution. After deposition, the particles are well dispersed on the support and the size distribution has a sharp maximum around 2 nm. The isomerization and hydrogenolysis of hexanes were studied in order to get more information about the particle size effects on the selectivities of Pt catalysts in these reactions. It was found that this catalyst exhibits the same selectivities as a low dispersed ordinary platinum catalyst. These selectivity values are quite different from the ones given by a highly dispersed classical catalyst in spite of the fact that the catalysts have fairly similar average particle size. Such results confirm the conclusions previously proposed that isomerisation via cyclic mechanism and non selective hydrogenolysis of hexanes take place only on platinum particles smaller than 1 nm.
