Popis: | The hydrogenation kinetics of 2,2-dimethylol-1-butanal (TMP-aldol) and 2,2-dimethylol-1-propanal (TME-aldol) over a supported nickel catalyst were determined with experiments carried out in a batchwise operating autoclave at 50−90 °C and 40−80 bar hydrogen. Water was used as the solvent. TMP- and TME-aldol were hydrogenated with 100% selectivity to the corresponding triols. The effects of the catalyst activation procedure and the formaldehyde concentration on the hydrogenation kinetics were studied with thermogravimetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and hydrogenation experiments. Catalyst reduction at a high temperature (400 °C) under hydrogen flow was favorable because of a more effective reduction of nickel oxides. Formaldehyde had a considerable retarding effect on the aldol hydrogenation: the hydrogenation rate was low until all of the formaldehyde was hydrogenated to methanol. The hydrogenation rate of TME-aldol was found to be significantly lower than that of TMP-aldol at low temperatures and ... |
