Hyperbranched PDMAEMA-functionalized SiO 2 microparticles: ATRP polymerization and grafting in a continuous flow reactor

Flow chemistry offers high reaction yield, kinetic control, improved safety, reliability, scalability, and greater degree of process control. Herein, hyperbranched polymer-grafted silica microparticles (HP-SMPs) are synthesized in a commercially available flow reactor through atom transfer radical polymerization. Initiator-anchored silica microparticles are obtained by in situ silanization in the flow reactor. Hyperbranched poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethylmethacrylate] chains are grafted onto the initiator-anchored SMPs through inimer–monomer ratio control. To demonstrate the efficiency and universality of this approach in grafting polymers onto SMPs, multiple hyperbranched polymeric structures are obtained by varying the inimer concentration. Dye absorption test is conducted to demonstrate the potential applications of HP-SMPs.

Atomic Layer Deposition for Preparing Isolated Co Sites on SiO 2 for Ethane Dehydrogenation Catalysis

Unlike Co clusters, isolated Co atoms have been shown to be selective for catalytic dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene; however, preparation of isolated Co sites requires special preparation procedures. Here, we demonstrate that Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) of tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)cobalt(III) (Co(TMHD) 3 ) on silica and other supports is effective in producing these isolated species. Silica-supported catalysts prepared with one ALD cycle showed ethylene selectivities greater than 96% at 923 K and were stable when CO 2 was co-fed with the ethane. Co catalysts prepared by impregnation formed clusters that were significantly less active, selective, and stable. Rates and selectivities also decreased for catalysts with multiple ALD cycles. Isolated Co catalysts prepared on Al 2 O 3 and MgAl 2 O 4 showed reasonable selectivity for ethane dehydrogenation but were not as effective as their silica counterpart.
