This study presents an easy route to induce pore formation, increase the specific surface area and control the crystallite size of magnesium oxides obtained using the sol-gel method with addition of Pluronic P123 surfactant. ...

In order to reduce energy costs, high-temperature insulation porous refractory ceramics have been subjected to increasing demands. Among the techniques used to produce these materials (such as the addition of foaming agents ...

Mixed aluminum and magnesium oxides (AlMgO) prepared by means of an emulsion-mediated sol-gel method was impregnated with copper nitrate solution and used in the ethanol dehydrogenative reactions to produce acetaldehyde ...

Abstract: Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2 or brucite) and magnesium oxide (MgO or magnesia) are essential raw materials for many industrial applications. Several studies have explored their production methods and the changes ...

The coupling of ethanol to produce C4-compounds by Guerbet condensation at 325 °C was studied using porous mixed oxide catalysts of AlMgO and AlCaO prepared by the emulsion mediated method with and without the addition of ...

The Metallocene rac-Et(Ind)2ZrCl2, an active catalyst for olefin polymerization, was supported on TiO2, SiO2, MgO after pretreatment with methylaluminoxane (MAO). The oxides used as supports were porous and high BET area ...
