Nonoxidative Dehydrogenation Of Propane Using Boron-Incorporated Silica-Supported Pt Sites Synthesized By Atomic Layer Deposition, Gokhan Çeli̇k Feb 2024

Nonoxidative Dehydrogenation Of Propane Using Boron-Incorporated Silica-Supported Pt Sites Synthesized By Atomic Layer Deposition, Gokhan Çeli̇k

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Nonoxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propylene using Pt-based supported catalysts is an active research area in catalysis because catalyst attributes of Pt sites can be controlled by careful design of active sites. One way to achieve this is by the addition of a second metal that may impart a change in the electron density of active sites, which in turn affects catalytic performance. In this study, bimetallic Pt and B sites were deposited on powder SiO2 using atomic layer deposition (ALD). Boron was first deposited on SiO2 via half-cycle ALD using triisoproplyborate as the B source. Following calcination, Pt deposition …


Investigation Of Boron Adsorption By Graphene Oxide: Equilibrium, Kinetic, And Thermodynamic Studies, Mehmet Fati̇h Önen, Nalan Erdöl Aydin, Osman Eksi̇k, Peli̇n Demi̇rci̇vi̇, Gülhayat Saygili Jan 2023

Investigation Of Boron Adsorption By Graphene Oxide: Equilibrium, Kinetic, And Thermodynamic Studies, Mehmet Fati̇h Önen, Nalan Erdöl Aydin, Osman Eksi̇k, Peli̇n Demi̇rci̇vi̇, Gülhayat Saygili

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Graphene oxide, which has a great application in industry, is one of the promising carbonous materials. Modified Hummers method was applied to synthesize graphene oxide. Characterization techniques showed that pure graphene oxide was successfully obtained. Its adsorptive properties were investigated by boron adsorption. The results were demonstrated that boron adsorption on graphene oxide was a pH-dependent process and maximum adsorption was achieved at pH 6 (0.98 mg g?1). Langmuir adsorption capacity was calculated as 3.92 mg g?1 with R2 = 0.99. The kinetic data brought to light that pseudosecond-order kinetic model was well described the experimental data (R2 = 0.99), …


A Road Map To Assess Critical Materials Content In Boron Industrial Wastes Usingsustainable Micro-X-Ray Fluorescence And Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescenceinstrumentation, İbrahi̇m Kula, Christian Gutsche, Yunus Erdoğan, Andreas Fittschen, Ursula Elisabeth Adriane Fittschen Jan 2020

A Road Map To Assess Critical Materials Content In Boron Industrial Wastes Usingsustainable Micro-X-Ray Fluorescence And Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescenceinstrumentation, İbrahi̇m Kula, Christian Gutsche, Yunus Erdoğan, Andreas Fittschen, Ursula Elisabeth Adriane Fittschen

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Turkey is the leading country in the world in terms of boron production and sale. Increasing boron production goes along with an increasing generation of boron wastes. The pollution of the soil and the air around the waste piles, as well as the occupation of several square kilometers of ground, are major environmental problems. It is, therefore, very important to make use of the wastes to both protect the environment and create revenue. This work presenteda road map for fast screening of boron waste for critical elements followed by determination of the elements using small footprint low power instrumentation. The …

Metal Nanoparticles/Carbon Nanotube Modified Electrodes For Voltammetric Determination Of Boron, Lokman Li̇v, Zekerya Dursun, Nuri̇ Naki̇boğlu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This study describes a sensitive and accurate voltammetric method for determination of boron using metal nanoparticles/carbon nanotube modified electrodes. The oxidation peak of Alizarin Red S (ARS) at -0.59 V in the boron-ARS complex formed in ammonium/ammonia buffer solution (pH 8.5) was evaluated as a response. The electrode modification conditions and experimental parameters affecting the peak height were optimized. The characteristics of modified electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The limits of detection (3s$_{y/x})$ and the analytical ranges for gold nanoparticles/carbon …

Simple And Rapid Voltammetric Determination Of Boron In Water And Steel Samples Using A Pencil Graphite Electrode, Lokman Li̇v, Nuri̇ Naki̇boğlu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This paper presents a simple, rapid, and accurate voltammetric method for determination of boron in water and steel samples using a disposable pencil graphite electrode. The oxidation of Tiron in the boron-Tiron complex in phosphate buffer at pH 7.5 was measured as a response. Type and concentration of supporting electrolyte, pH, ionic strength, Tiron concentration, scan rate, step amplitude, pulse amplitude, and pencil grade were investigated as the parameters affecting the peak current. The limit of detection (3s) was estimated as 84 $\mu $g/L. The relative standard deviation of the method was 4.6 for 1 mg B/L (N = 7). …


Flow Injection Analysis For Boron Determination By Using Methyl Borate Generation And Flame Atomic Emission Spectrometry, Deni̇z Yurtsever Sarica, Nusret Ertaş Jan 2001

Flow Injection Analysis For Boron Determination By Using Methyl Borate Generation And Flame Atomic Emission Spectrometry, Deni̇z Yurtsever Sarica, Nusret Ertaş

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Boron is one of the least sensitive elements in atomic emission spectrometry. As various refractory substances interfere in the analysis and because of the low sensitivity, sample enrichment and the separation of the interfering matrix is needed. Methyl borate has many advantages because of its simple generation conditions and its stability in the absence of moisture. New procedures for the generation of methyl borate without using external heating have also been investigated to produce a more rapid determination of boron. The on-line combination of flow injection analysis using methyl borate generation with flame atomic emission spectrometry as the detector is …
