The reserves of liquefied petroleum gas in the production zones and fields are briefly characterized in present paper. The scope of liquefied petroleum gases application, catalytic transformation and their importance in obtaining products are described. Widespread use of nanostructured and nanoscale catalysts in catalysis processes and their properties are given in literature review. Chemical transformations of С3-С4-alkanes in the presence of mono- and bimetallic catalysts based on Cr/SiO2 are studied. By method of electron microscopy, it was determined that various highly dispersed oxides of chromium in lanthanum – modified catalyst interact with each other and with carrier. According to electronic paramagnetic resonance data, chromium is contained in a five- and three-valence state. Mono - and bimetallic catalysts were studied by physical and chemical methods: IR spectroscopy, electron microscopy (EM) using micro diffraction, EPR. Monometallic catalysts with a chromium content of 2-10 wt. % and bimetallic lanthanum-chromium-containing catalyst in the form of 5% La-Cr/SiO2 in a ratio of 1/1 were prepared in the work; the process temperature was varied in the range of 400 to 650°С. Introduction of lanthanum leads to the formation of LaCrO3, LaCrO4 compounds with low activity in dehydro-genation reaction of C3-C4 – alkanes. The maximum yield of C2-C4-olefins - 39.2%, i.e. the formation of propylene in high doses was observed in the presence of 5% Cr/SiO2.

Aluminous electrical porcelains are used in the production of materials of high voltage insulators. The microstructure plays an important role in the performance of electrical porcelain. On the other hand, the porcelain materials undergo a series of physical and chemical transformations during firing. This makes the understanding of their microstructures rather complex. In this work was studied the microstructural development of electrical porcelain containing up to 35 wt.% of ornamental rock waste. The pieces ceramics were pressed at 50 MPa and sintered at 1300 °C. The porcelain pieces were characterized via X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results indicate that the presence of the ornamental rock waste influenced the microstructural development of the pieces of electrical aluminous porcelain.

Rare-earth phosphates are of particular interest because of their catalytic properties associated with the hydrolysis of many aromatic chlorides in the petroleum industry. Lanthanum phosphates (LaPO4) which have been doped with small amounts of copper have shown increased catalytic activity (1). However the physical and chemical characteristics of the samples leading to good catalytic activity are not known.Many catalysts are amorphous and thus do not easily lend themselves to methods of investigation which would include electron microscopy. However, the LaPO4, crystals are quite suitable samples for high resolution techniques.The samples used were obtained from William L. Kehl of Gulf Research and Development Company. The electron microscopy was carried out on a JEOL JEM-100B which had been modified for high resolution microscopy (2). Standard high resolution techniques were employed. Three different sample types were observed: 669A-1-5-7 (poor catalyst), H-L-2 (good catalyst) and 27-011 (good catalyst).

Phragmites communis, Eriophorum vaginatum, Calluna vulgaris, and Sphagnum palustre are representative of plants whose remains are frequently encountered in Scottish peat deposits. The effects of preservation in peat on the surface features of their leaves were followed by electron microscopy. Wax projections were observed on the surfaces of mature living leaves of Phragmites and Eriophorum but not on Calluna or Sphagnum. Details of cell wall outlines and stomata (or pores) were clearly defined in Phragmites, Eriophorum, and Sphagnum, but obscured in Calluna. The previous year's leaves differed by displaying a general absence of wax projections, an erosion of the cuticular surface, which took the form of either a loss in definition of the cell wall outlines or a definite etching of the surface, and the presence of numerous microorganisms. The surface features of preserved leaves exhibited to a greater degree this erosion of cell wall outline and cuticular surface. This preliminary study has indicated that major alterations in the submicroscopic features of cuticularized leaf surfaces occur at the leaf litter stage. The primary agents responsible for this degradation would appear to be microorganisms in conjunction with the physical and chemical processes of peat formation.

The purpose of this study is study of the physical and chemical properties of the overburden of the Dzherdanak deposit. The chemical and mineralogical composition of the overburden of the Djerdanak deposit has been studied by the methods of X-ray and thermography, electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy. The main phases are quartz, kaolinite and muscovite. The study of the fine structure of the rock under an electron microscope showed the homogeneity of the rock with pronounced uniform inclusions, which is preserved even after firing. Changes in the rock after firing at 1050 °C have been determined. The formation of mullite at this temperature has been established.

Low Activity

An inherited deficiency of a metalloendopeptidase (meprin) activity occurs in kidneys of many inbred mouse strains. To clarify whether meprin protein is present in low-activity strains and determine the distribution of meprin in kidneys of mice with high- and low-meprin activities, kidney slices were stained through the use of the indirect immunoperoxidase technique and examined by light and electron microscopy. Light microscopy at high dilutions of anti-meprin IgG confirmed the brush border localization of meprin in high-meprin activity strains and revealed no detectable cross-reactive material in low-meprin activity strains. However, light and electron microscopy studies that use lower dilutions of anti-meprin immunoglobulin G (IgG) revealed cross-reactivity in low-activity strains, also at the luminal surface of the proximal tubules. Studies at lower magnifications indicated that meprin is primarily associated with the juxtamedullary region of the kidney in both high- and low-activity strains. Western blots of urinary proteins showed significant amounts of meprin-like proteins, but only in the urine of mice with high-meprin activity. The low activity of meprin in some inbred mouse strains is not associated with the presence of the protein in compartments of kidney cells other than the brush border or with secretion of the protein into the urine.

Ethylene Selectivity

Ethylene is an important chemical raw material and with the increasing consumption of petroleum resources, the production of ethylene through the calcium carbide acetylene route has important research significance. In this work, a series of bimetallic catalysts with different Cu/Ni molar ratios are prepared by co-impregnation method for the hydrogenation of calcium carbide acetylene to ethylene. The introduction of an appropriate amount of Cu effectively inhibits not only the formation of ethane and green oil, thus increasing the selectivity of ethylene, but also the formation of carbon deposits, which improves the stability of the catalyst. The ethylene selectivity of the Ni–Cu bimetallic catalyst increases from 45% to 63% compared with the Ni monometallic counterpart and the acetylene conversion still can reach 100% at the optimal conditions of 250 °C, 8000 mL·g−1·h−1 and V(H2)/V(C2H2) = 3. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed that the metal particles were highly dispersed on the support, High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and H2-Temperature programmed reduction proved that there was an interaction between Ni and Cu, combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations results, Cu transferred electrons to Ni changed the Ni electron cloud density in NiCux catalysts, thus reducing the adsorption of acetylene and ethylene, which is favorable to ethylene selectivity.

Paramagnetic Properties

Abstract: Formation of electrical conducting channels with paramagnetic properties on the surface of three type polymer plates (phenol-formaldehyde and epoxy resins, polyacrylonitrile) under influence of CO2 laser irradiation at the presence of air have been studied. It is shown that the magnitude of surface resistance of the investigated polymers depends on polymer type and irradiation energy. The appearance of electrical conducting regions in the polymer materials is due to laser-chemical transformations of macromolecular physical and chemical structures near the polymer plate surfaces, leading to formation of double conjugated bonds. These structures are characterized also with paramagnetic properties- by method of ESR the free radicals are discovered in the transformed regions of polymers. The obtained results practically are analogous to ones obtained in such polymers after thermal treatment at high temperatures. However there are some advantages: in the latter case for obtaining of conducting materials on the base of dielectric polymers it is necessary to use a high vacuum. Besides of such method does not allow the formation of conducting channels with desired square and configuration on the surface of polymer plates in very short time (about several seconds) at present of air.
