Hydrogenation of 2-ethylanthraquinone over Pd/ZrO2-gamma-Al2O3 catalyst
A ZrO2-gamma-Al2O3 supported Pd catalyst was prepared and characterized by XRD, XPS, H-2-TPR and TEM techniques. The catalytic activity was evaluated in the liquid-phase hydrogenation of 2-ethylanthraquinone. Comparing with Pd/gamma-Al2O3, it showed high catalytic activity.
