Abstract

Alumina supported platinum, palladium and bimetallic platinum-palladium catalysts have been investigated in the hydrogenolysis of n-hexane. Results show that, compared with platinum, the activity of bimetallic catalysts is several times lower while the selectivity to hydrogenolytic products increases from 72 to 100%.

Abstract

Платиновые, палладиевые и биметаллические платинопалладиевые катализаторы, нанесенные на окись алюминия, были исследованы в гидрогенолизе н-гексана. Разультаты указывают на то, что по сравнению с платиной, активность биметаллических катализаторов в несколько раз ниже, в то время как селективностя к гидрогенитическим продуктам увеличивается от 72 до 100%.
