Toward economical purification of styrene monomers: Eggshell Mo 2 C for front‐end hydrogenation of phenylacetylene

An eggshell Mo 2 C catalyst which is designed from the rapid combination of molybdate with melamine is described. In contrast to Pd‐based catalysts, the eggshell Mo 2 C operates effectively with a wide‐concentration window in high‐temperature gas phase hydrogenation of phenylacetylene, thus, an econ...

Description
Summary:An eggshell Mo 2 C catalyst which is designed from the rapid combination of molybdate with melamine is described. In contrast to Pd‐based catalysts, the eggshell Mo 2 C operates effectively with a wide‐concentration window in high‐temperature gas phase hydrogenation of phenylacetylene, thus, an economical and energy‐efficient front‐end purification of styrene monomers might be possible. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J , 61: 2522–2531, 2015
