Abstract:Catalytic
hydrogenation of carbohydrates over the Raney
Ni catalyst
is an important industrial process to produce valuable polyols. However,
this process generally encounters challenges such as harsh reaction
conditions, low catalytic activity, and catalyst deactivation. In
this contribution, metallic nickel-rich nickel borides (NiBO-nKH2PO4) were successfully constructed
via a simple chemical reduction method with potassium dihydrogen phosphate
(KH2PO4) as the buffering agent and sodium borohydride
(NaBH4) as… 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.
