Deactivation of silica supported Pd catalysts during liquid-phase hydrogenation
Large pore MCM-41 was found to provide a better stabilization of Pd particles than amorphous SiO2 during liquid phase hydrogenation. Pd/large pore MCM-41 exhibited higher hydrogenation activities as well as lower amount of metal loss by Pd leaching.
