General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

Platinum on carbon (5 wt.% loading, matrix activated carbon support) (Pt/C) can be used as a catalyst for a variety of applications, such as:

hydrosilylation reaction for the production of molecules with silicon-carbon bonds
direct alcohol fuel cells (DAFCs)
an electrocatalyst in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER)
formation of nanocatalyst for polymer electrolyte fuel cells
hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, nitro groups, ketones, and aromatics
hydrogenolysis of cyclopropanes
oxidation of alcohols.

Pt/C can also be used as an hydrosilylation catalyst. It can convert alkenes and alkynes to chlorosilanes, alkylsilanes, and alkoxysilanes at the temperature and pressure conditions of 100-300 ^oC and 30-1000 psi, respectively.It may be also used as a catalyst in methanol fuel cells.

Product can be used with our benchtop hydrogen generator, H-Genie Lite (Z744083)

Effect of Pt catalyst on the condensable hydrocarbon content generated via food waste pyrolysis.

Soosan Kim et al.

Chemosphere, 248, 126043-126043 (2020-02-03)

A Pt catalyst supported on activated carbon (Pt/AC) was used for an environmentally friendly thermal treatment of food waste under an inert atmosphere (i.e., pyrolysis). This catalyst influenced the amounts of condensable hydrocarbons and noncondensable gases but not that of

Pyrolysis of food waste over a Pt catalyst in CO2 atmosphere.
