Summary: Hierarchical zeolites with mesopores only on external surfaces were synthesized via an alkaline treatment for organic structure-directing agents (OSDA)-occluded zeolites. These zeolites exhibited higher catalytic activity and improved mass transfer due to the presence of mesopores on external surfaces. They also showed higher hydrothermal stability compared to conventional hierarchical zeolites.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of three different binders on REUSY zeolite. Alumina sol notably damages the framework of zeolites by blocking the pore channels and removing framework Al. Silica sol enhances the structural stability and increases the number of Bronsted acid sites in zeolites, leading to better hydrothermal stability and higher micro-reaction activity. The influence of pseudo boehmite colloidal sol on zeolites falls between that of alumina sol and silica sol.

Summary: The catalytic conversion of model compounds for plastic pyrolysis oil (1-octene, octadiene, octane, and toluene) over ZSM-5 in a fixed-bed reactor was investigated mechanistically. The conversion of 1-octene resulted in the production of benzene, toluene, xylene, coke, and hydrogen through a series of cracking, oligomerization, cyclization, and hydrogen transfer reactions. Octadiene mainly contributed to reactor fouling through thermal coking, while octane and toluene were converted through cracking reactions and disproportionation, dealkylation, and coking reactions, respectively. The use of mesoporous ZSM-5 maintained product selectivity for 70 hours in time-on-stream experiments.

Summary: A new method for the synthesis of fluoroalkylthioethers was developed using iridium(I)-catalyzed deoxygenation reaction. Dimethyl diazomalonate was used as a reducing reagent, and the oxygen atom from fluoroalkylsulfoxides was transferred to diazomalonate, resulting in the formation of fluoroalkylthioethers. This protocol offers an alternative strategy with effective oxygen atom transfer, mild reaction conditions, and good functional groups tolerance.

Summary: The promoting effect of zirconium addition on Pd/Beta catalysts in the aqueous phase selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone was investigated. Introducing Zr atoms into H-Beta zeolite greatly improved the catalyst's activity in the reaction. A strong synergy between the Zr species and Pd was observed, affecting the dispersion state of Pd on the support. Modification of the support with Zr4+ improved the acid ratio of the catalyst, suppressing the further transformation of cyclohexanone. The Pd/Zr-Beta catalyst showed high selectivity to cyclohexanone.

Summary: Light alkenes oligomerization is an important method for producing clean jet fuels, but the current catalyst used for 1-hexene oligomerization has low activity and selectivity. In this study, an efficient and selective IM-5 zeolite-derived catalyst system was developed for 1-hexene oligomerization. Treatment with an aqueous NH4F solution resulted in dealumination of IM-5 zeolite without structure degradation. The NH4F-treated IM-5 zeolite exhibited enhanced acidity and showed rapid diffusion ability. The strong Brunsted acid sites in the catalyst promoted both cracking and oligomerization reactions. The contact time and partial pressure between 1-hexene and IM-5 zeolite were analyzed to understand the competition of cracking reactions. High conversion of 1-hexene, optimal oligomerization ratio, and reasonable stability were achieved using the etched IM-5 catalyst.

Summary: Hierarchical SAPO-34 zeolites with tunable porosity were synthesized by modifying the Si/Al ratio of the gel precursors. The morphology of the SAPO-34 crystals transformed from dispersed nanocrystals to compact polycrystalline aggregates by increasing the Si/Al ratio. Catalytic tests revealed that the SAPO-34-0.20 catalyst with loose nano-sized crystals exhibited superior performance with increased catalytic longevity and selectivity towards light olefins compared to a reference catalyst. Pretreated with NH3, the selectivity of light olefins further improved. The modification of acidity by NH3-poisoning played a crucial role in enhancing the selectivity for light olefins.

Summary: A hierarchically core-shell-structured SAPO-34@ZSM-5 composite zeolite was successfully synthesized through a solid-solid transformation method involving a pre-coated MCM-41 shell layer and ZSM-5 seeds. This innovative method overcomes the chemical and structural incompatibility between the core crystals and the shell zeolite, while also preventing the collapse and dissolution of the core crystals. The catalytic performance of the core-shell SAPO-34@ZSM-5 was found to be greatly improved compared to other catalysts, with a longer catalytic lifetime and higher yield of light olefins.

Summary: The corrosion behavior of Fe-60 and Fe-83 ribbons in 0.6 M NaCl was studied. Fe-60 exhibited a local corrosion mode and formed a stable passivation film with higher corrosion resistance, while Fe-83 showed a combination of local and global corrosion modes and had lower corrosion resistance. Controlling the precipitation of nanocrystalline phases and increasing the POx content in the passivation film significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Fe-based glassy alloys.
