Description
Summary:The synthesis of dihydroxybenzenes (DHBZ), essential chemical reagents in numerous industrial processes, with a high degree of selectivity and yield from the hydroxylation of phenol is progressively attracting great interest in the catalysis field. Furthermore, the additive manufacturing of catalysts to produce 3D printed monoliths would provide additional benefits to enhance the DHBZ synthesis performance. Herein, 3D cellular Fe/γ-Al2O3 monoliths with a total porosity of 88% and low density (0.43 g·cm–3) are printed by Robocasting from pseudoplastic Fe-metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOF)-based aqueous boehmite inks to develop catalytic monoliths containing a Fe network of dispersed clusters (≤5 μm), nanoclusters (
