Hydrogenation of Dicyclopentadiene in the Presence of a Nickel Catalyst Supported onto a Cation Exchanger in a Flow-Type Reactor

详细

The process of dicyclopentadiene hydrogenation in the gas–liquid–solid catalyst system with a catalyst of nickel nanoparticles supported onto a Purolite CT-175 cation exchange resin was studied. The surface structure of the catalyst and the kinetics of the dicyclopentadiene hydrogenation process were examined. Optimum conditions were found for the production of endo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene and the simultaneous production of endo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene and 5,6-dihydrodicyclopentadiene at atmospheric pressure.
