Its chemical reactivity is in orders of inagnitude higher than that of the conmercial one. After heat treatment at 2ll℃, the specific surface area of NaH becomes smaller whereas its chemical reactivity is even higher. This fact indicates that the specific surface area of NaH particles is an important but not the only factor for its high reactivity. NaH treated at (400℃, 6h) still retains a specific surface area of 30m2 g-1 and gives fairly high chenncal reactivity.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by N2 physical adsorption, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, pyridine Fourier-transform infrared spectra, and H2-O2 titration on its physicochemical properties. The results showed that Pt species were formed primarily in crystalline structure and no PtSnx alloy was observed. Meanwhile, with the increment of thermal pretreatrnent temperature, Pt dispersion showed a decreas- ing trend due to the aggregation of Pt particles. Simultaneously, the amount of Lewis acid sites was remarkably influenced by such thermal pretreatment owning to the consequent physicochemical property variation of Sn species. Interestingly, the catalytic activity showed the similar variation trend with that of Lewis acid sites, confirming the important roles of Lewis acid sites in AcOH hydrogenation. Moreover, a balancing effect between exposed Pt and Lewis acid sites was obtained, resulting in the superior catalytic performance in AcOH hydrogenation.展开更多
