Palladium on Alumina (CAS: 7440-05-3) is used in the hydrogenation of aromatic aldehydes, aniline and its derivatives, nitroaromatic and aliphatic compounds.
Palladium on alumina (Pd/Al2O3) powder is a widely used catalyst in various chemical reactions due to its unique properties. The palladium component provides excellent catalytic activity, especially in hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions. At the same time, the alumina (Al2O3) serves as a robust support material that enhances the dispersion and stability of the palladium particles. This combination results in a catalyst that exhibits high surface area, thermal stability, and resistance to sintering and deactivation. Pd/Al2O3 is effective in promoting reactions under mild conditions, making it valuable in industrial processes such as petrochemical refining, and fine chemical synthesis, and environmental applications like automotive exhaust treatment. The synergy between palladium and alumina ensures efficient catalytic performance and durability, making Pd/Al2O3 a critical material in both research and industrial settings.
