Abstract

Catalytic decomposition of N2O has been studied over a series of solid solution La2CuxZn1−xO4 (0<X≤1.0) at 200 Torr initial pressure of N2O, in the temperature range 330–490°C. The observed trends in the kinetics have been explained based on polaron hopping mechanism. Parallel variation between activity and magnetic susceptibility has been observed.

Abstract

Каталитическое разложение N2O исследовали на серии твердых растворов La2CuxZn1−xO4 (0<X≤1.0) при исходном давлении N2O 200 торр и при температурах 330–490°C. Наблюдаемые зависимости в кинетике объясняли на основе механизма перескакивания полярона. Наблюдали параллельное изменение в активности и магнитной восприимчивости.
