Abstrakt: On a highly dispersed Ag/SiO2 catalyst the reaction of ethylene with hydrogen was studied by means of isotopic exchange. Although hydrogenation does not proceed below 550 K, a latent but intensive interaction between ethylene and hydrogen could be observed already at 480 K. On the investigated catalyst the mechanism of the ethylene hydrogenation is similar to that known for nickel, the catalytic behaviour, however, being distinctly different.
