Application of silicon carbide of high specific surface to catalytic reactions at elevated temperature

摘要

Application of silicon carbide with a high specific surface of at least 100 m2 per gram, according to Claim 1 of the main patent application, to the use of catalytic reactions at elevated temperature, above 500 DEG C, and capable of being between 650 and 800 DEG C, such as the catalyst supports intended for the exhaust systems of internal combustion engines and for the controlled oxidation of hydrocarbons of low molecular mass, especially methane, to hydrocarbons of higher molecular mass and with a longer carbon chain.
