What interaction is there in a metal(0) doped material? Which activates the reaction the metal(0) or the bulk material?

I have synthesized Pd doped Vanadium phosphates. One is Pd(0)-VPO and another is Pd(II)-VPO. If the Pd in Pd(0)-VPO is neutral then there will be no interaction, then how does it lie in the bulk...

If there is no peak for the promoted material in the XRD of the catalyst, could we say that the doped material is either amorphous or well dispersed?

I have synthesized WO3 promoted vanadium phosphate, but I did not get any peak for WO3 in XRD. This may be due to the amorphous nature of WO3 or it was well dispersed or both. Could anyone make a...

From UV-vis analysis, how can you tell whether the promoted material remains in bulk or isolated form?

I have synthesized WO3 promoted vanadium phosphate. How can it be proven from UV-vis analysis that the WO3 remains as W, WO3, WOx, WO3 or xH2O? Can anybody help me in this regard or suggest any...

From NH3-TPD analysis, could it be possible to distinguish Bronsted and Lewis acid sites? If so then how?

I have synthesized WO3 based materials. The materials show two peaks at lower and higher temperature. I assume that lower temp. peak is for Bronsted acid sites and higher temp. peak is for Lewis...

What is the difference between dye degradation and decomposition? What are the conditions for a material to be used in this process?

Can mesoporous material be used in dye degradation? I want to do some photocatalysis like dye degradation and wish to know about the materials used in this process.

If a promoting material is not found in the XRD of the bulk material, what can we conclude? Is it amorphous or well dispersed in the bulk matrix?

Actually I have prepared Al-VPO. But I did not get any peak of Al in the XRD pattern of Al-VPO. So it might be well dispersed or amorphous? If so then which is the active sites if I'll use it for...

Is the nanorod of any material one dimensional (1D) or two dimensional (2D)?

Some literature describes nanorods as 1D and some other 2D? Can anyone explain?

I got rosette type morphology of my parent sample (VPO) but after impregnation with Molybdenum (Mo) its structure changes to irregular petals. Why?

Why does the morphology change with the impregnation of the bulk vanadium phosphorous oxide (VPO)? What happens? I have synthesized the Mo-VPO materials in wetness-impregnation method and calcined...
