Reactions of carbon monoxide and hydrogen on Co, Ni, Ru, and Pd metals

Infrared studies of carbon monoxide hydrogenation over alumina-supported ruthenium

“…It is significant to note, that while carbon deposition via CO disproportionation has been observed for alumina-supported Ru (16,17), no evidence has been reported for the occurrence of this reaction on Ru (100), (001), (101), (110) surfaces studied at low pressures ( 12,(18)(19)(20)(21).…”

Electrochemical Deposition of Ruthenium and Cobalt-Ruthenium Alloys From Acidic Chloride Ions Containing Baths

“…A necessary condition to achieve it is working out better and better catalytic materials of higher degree of conversion, better structure and longer operation time. [1] The best catalytic properties are found in metals from the platinum group [2][3], but due to their high prices it is impossible to commercialise production of hydrogen as a common energy carrier. A solution to the problem can be application of alloy or composite catalysers of catalytic properties close to those of the platinum metals though much less expensive [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

The reactivity of adsorbed carbon on vanadium promoted rhodium catalysts

“…The formation of carbonaceous intermediates from CO disproportionation on these metals has been studied [7][8][9]. On rhodium three types of carbon [10][11][12][13][14] can be produced from CO adsorption at temperatures above 250 ~ C: C~, Cr and Cv.…”
