✦ Synopsis


Oxygen

reduction on the Au(lO0) face was studied by the rotating disk-ring electrode technique in solutions of anions which adsorb strongly on gold (HSO;/SO~-and/or OH-) over the entire pH range. The specific adsorption of OH-anions, which is a pH dependent process, is found to play the key role in determining the reaction pathways. In the absence of OH-adsorption, for pHs below 6, the reduction of 0, begins as a Ze-process. Due to the increase in local pH during 0, reduction, the reaction pathway turns into a 4e-reduction at a certain potential depending on the pH of the solution. For pHs higher than 6, 0, reduction begins as a C-process in the potential region where specifically adsorbed OH _ anions are present.

## Abstract The effect of calcination temperature on the electronic structure of gold catalyst was investigated in this paper. CO oxidation was employed as a test reaction to correlate the phase changes to the catalytic activity. The TPR, XPS and XRD characterization showed that the highly active A

Synthetic clinkers, similar to high-silica Portland Cement clinkers, were prepared from raw material containing at times more than 50% oil shale from Har-Tuv area (central Israel) to which phosphate rock and laboratory grade CaC03 and Si02 were added. Although some clinkers contained more than 3% P2
