Experimental investigation of a monopropellant thruster using nitrous oxide... This paper presents experimental results with a 2N thruster prototype employing nitrous oxide gas decomposed by a rhodium oxide catalyst supported on alumina....
Controlled oxygen chemisorption on an alumina supported rhodium catalyst. the formation of a new metal-metal oxide interface determined with exafs....oxidation.At 300 K only a small part of the rhodium particles remained metallic and this metallic 'kernel' was partly covered withrhodium oxide....
Impedance spectroscopic investigation of a rh/ysz catalyst under polarization... Under positive polarization, the adsorption capacitance increases dramatically indicating reinforcement of the ‘‘effective’ ’ double layer at the catalyst/gas interface, in agreement with the observation known from electrochemical promotion practice that positive polarization of a rhodium electrode leads to rhodium oxide reduction, hence, to dramatic increase in catalytic reaction rate....
Steel waste used in reducing emissions of nitrous oxide... H2-TPR analyses showed H2 consumption peaks associated with rhodium oxide, also detected by XRF....
