Cellulose-based copper–cobalt solid dispersed composite catalysts and their physicochemical and catalytic properties in alcohol synthesis

Resumo

The physicochemical and catalytic properties of pyrolyzed cellulose-based Cu–Co solid dispersed composite catalysts synthesized by matrix isolation under the action of IR radiation have been studied. It has been shown that alcohols can be produced from CO and H₂ in the presence of the synthesized composite catalysts comprising Cu–Co solid dispersed phase nanoparticles. The effect of synthesis conditions on the structure of the composite catalysts and their activity in synthesis gas conversion to alcohols has been studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, and in situ magnetometry.
