Features of platinum carbon catalyst:
1. High specific surface area
The porous structure and high specific surface area of activated carbon improve the dispersion of platinum and provide a large number of active sites.
2. High catalytic activity
Platinum has excellent catalytic properties and shows excellent activity in a variety of chemical reactions.
3. Stability and durability
Platinum carbon catalysts exhibit good stability and durability over a wide temperature and pH range.
Application:
Used as a catalyst in the hydrogenation process of alkenes, alkynes, nitro groups, ketones, and aromatic hydrocarbons; used in the hydrogenolysis of cyclopropane; and catalyzed the oxidation of alcohols.
Platinum on carbon (Pt/C) can be used as a catalyst in a variety of applications, such as:
Hydrosilylation reaction used to produce molecules with silicon-carbon bonds
Direct alcohol fuel cell (DAFC)
Electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER)
Generating nanocatalysts for polymer electrolyte fuel cells
