MoO3 is active for hydrodeoxygenation of phenol at high temperatures. Ru/MoO3 gives high conversions and selectivities at lower temperature. Catalytic performance correlates with both Ru content and the concentration of Mo–OH sites on the surface (formed by hydrogen spillover from Ru) but not with the amount of reduced Mo centers (oxygen vacancies). Mo–

The Provenance of Sand in Mortars from Roman Villas in Ne Italy: a [PDF]
The chemical- mineralogical composition of the sand fractions of mortars found in Roman villas dating from the 1st century A.C. located in Northern Italy has been investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy plus energy dispersive ...

ABSTRACT This study presents new evidence for the early use of lime mortar during the Early Iron Age at the Piscina Torta site (Ostia, Italy), situated on the earliest Holocene beach ridges in the southern Tiber delta. The site, which was earlier described as a briquetage site, dates from between the late 8th and 6th century BCE and consists of a large

Characterization of Roman Mortars from Two Archeological Sites: Trajan's Bridge and Roman Castrum Diana, Karataš [PDF]
Historical mortars are composite materials made of binders and aggregates that were used in the construction of water tanks, Roman baths, mosaics, aqueducts, frescoes, etc. Due to the specific composition, Roman mortars are characterized by excellent strength and durability, as evidenced by numerous Roman buildings that have been preserved to this day.

Mortar Design for Conservation. Danube Roman Frontier 2000 Years After [PDF]
MoDeCo2000 project (2020-2022), funded by the Science Fund of the Republic of Serbia (PROMIS programme) is focused on the research of Roman mortars on the Serbian part of the Danube Limes. The project aims to study raw materials as well as the technologies of making lime mortars used during the construction works, trying to reveal different aspects of ...
