Reversible hydrogenation—dehydrogenation reactions of meta-terphenyl on catalysts with various supports

摘要

For developing new composite systems (substrate—catalyst) for hydrogen storage, the activities of Pt and Pd catalysts on various supports were compared in reversible meta -terphenyl hydrogenation and perhydro- meta -terphenyl dehydrogenation. The microstructure of the catalysts was studied. Carbon-supported catalysts are more efficient in both reversible reactions than alumina-supported systems.
