Abstract:Heterogeneous nanocatalysts containing
metal nanoparticles (Me
= Ir, Rh, and Ru) deposited on mesoporous saponite (magnesium aluminosilicate)
were prepared from metal chlorides by the incipient wetness impregnation
method and tested in the ring-opening reaction at high pressures using
decalin as a substrate. The elemental composition of the catalysts
and the carrier, the surface area, pore size and pore volume, the
charge state, the size of metal nanoparticles, and the acidity were
characterized by the followi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
