Abstract: A process for the preparation of nano-oxide coated catalysts useful for the treatment of toxic gases by coating of composite materials containing LDHs over ceramic monolithic substrates. The process combines reacting oxides and salts of metals so as to prepare LDHs or mixed metal layered hydroxides possessing positive layer charge, from which a stable gel is prepared by adding swellable clay having a negative charge in different LDH:clay ratio in an aqueous medium and homogenizing the same in a high intensity ultrasonic processor. The gel is then dip-coated over cordierite/mulite honey-comb monolithic supports at various dipping and withdrawal rates. The dip-coated monoliths are then dried and calcined at different temperatures to develop the alumino-silicate supported nano-oxide coats over honey-comb ceramic substrates for carrying out decomposition of N20 gas in a He flow in various flow rates at 400 to 600° C. temperature in a cylindrical quartz tube.

Abstract: In the present invention there is provided a process for the preparation of nano-oxide coated catalysts useful for the treatment of toxic gases by coating of composite materials containing LDHs over ceramic monolithic substrates. The process combines reacting oxides and salts of metals in a known manner so as to prepare LDHs or mixed metal layered hydroxides such as Ni—Al, Mg—Al, Zn—Cr—Al type possessing positive layer charge, from which a stable gel is prepared by adding swellable clay having a negative charge e.g. montmorillonite, laponite, hectorite etc. in different LDH:clay ratio in an aqueous medium and homogenising the same with high speed homogeniser and ultrasonicator in a high intensity ultrasonic processor. The gel is then dip-coated over cordierite/mulite honey-comb monolithic supports at various dipping and withdrawal rates.

Abstract: The preparation of nano-oxide coated adsorbent, which is useful for treatment of toxic gases, by coating of composite materials containing hydrotalcite over ceramic monolithic substrates. Oxides and salts of metals are reacted in a known manner to prepare hydrotalcites or mixed metal layered hydroxides such as Mg—Al, Ca—Al, Zn—Al, Zn—Cr type possessing positive layer charge, from which a stable gel is prepared by adding swellable clay, e.g., montmorillonite etc. in different hydrotalcite:clay ratio in an aqueous medium and homogenizing the same with high speed homogenizer and ultrasonicator in a high intensity ultrasonic processor. The gel is dip-coated over cordierite/mulite honey-comb monolithic supports. The dip-coated monoliths are dried and calcined to develop the alumino-silicate supported nano-oxide coats over honey-comb ceramic substrates for carrying out adsorption of H2S and SO2 gas in a He flow in various flow rates at 400 to 1000° C. temperature in a cylindrical quartz tube.
