Supported catalyst, for the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds to the corresponding alicyclic compounds, contains at least one Group 8 metal and has an average pore diameter of 25-50 nm and a specific surface area of greater than 30 m2/g

摘要

A catalyst (I), for the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds to the corresponding alicyclic compounds, contains at least one Group 8 metal on or in a support material having an average pore diameter of 25-50 nm and a specific surface area of greater than 30 m2/g. An Independent claim is included for a process for the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds with hydrogen containing gases in the presence of the catalyst (I).
