Some insight on the structure/activity relationship of metal nanoparticles in Cu/SiO2 catalysts

doi:10.1016/S1872-2067(19)63392-9

Abstract

Abstract: The activity of two Cu/SiO₂ catalysts prepared by the chemisorption hydrolysis technique has been tested in the hydrogenation reaction of 3-methyl-cyclohexanone. Both catalysts were found to be very active at 60℃ and 1 atm of H². Characterization of the materials by FT-IR of adsorbed CO and TEM put in light the presence of well formed Cu cristallites. By assuming a cuboctahedral model we could show that the hydrogenation activity is linked to high coordination sites on the metal particle. A comparison is also reported with a sample prepared by ammonia evaporation that was found to be inactive in the hydrogenation reaction under the same experimental conditions.

Key words: Cu catalysts, Metal particle morphology, Lewis acid sites, Hydrogenation, Bifunctional catalysts
