Effects of La2O3, Li2O and K2O promoters on properties of a Ni/SiO2 catalyst for hydrogenation of m-dinitrobenzene to m-phenylenediamine
The effect of La2O3, K2O and Li2O on the properties and catalytic performance of silica-supported nickel catalysts for the hydrogenation of m-dinitrobenzene was investigated. The catalysts promoted with La2O3, Li2O and K2O showed better catalytic performance than the catalyst without promotion, especially the ones co-promoted with La2O3 and K2O or Li2O.
