Abstract

In the study, CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 was prepared by sol-gel method. Its catalytic activity was evaluated by gas-phase catalytic dehydrogenation of 1, 5-Pentanediol to δ-valerolactone as a probe reaction. CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 and long period reactive CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 were detected by XRD. Micro-structure and essence disciplinarian of CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 were disclosed. Metal ions had a cooperative effects during the catalytic dehydrogenation of 1, 5-pentanediol to δ-valerolactone. After CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 deactivation, crystal particle size was increased clearly. It were found that characteristic diffraction peaks were caused by the catalyst temperature raising in methanol catalytic synthesis of ZnO. 1, 5-Pentanediol and δ-valerolactone were detected by FTIR. Their internal chemical bond and molecular structure were disclosed. The purity of δ-valerolactone product was very high. δ-Valerolactone and its polymer were detected by DSC. δ-Valerolactone possessed with poor stability. Polymerization reaction was easily happened by itself. So it was worth focusing on how to improve the stability of the δ-valerolactone monomer. This study could provide basic data and experimental basis for gas-phase catalytic dehydrogenation of 1, 5-Pentanediol to δ-valerolactone in...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
