Abstract

The reduction of Ni/Al2O3 at high temperatures does not result in a decrease of the H2 uptake and catalytic activity towards C2H6 hydrogenolysis per metal surface atoms. This is typical of a weak metal-support interaction. Moreover, no Ni−Al alloy formation has been detected by magnetism. This behavior, at variance with that of Ni/SiO2, confirms that the occurrence of the strong metal-support interaction is probably related to support reduction with alloy formation.

Abstract

Восстановление Ni/Al2O3 при высоких температурах не приводит к уменьшению адсорбции H2 и каталитической активности в гидрогенолизе C2H6, отнесенной к поверхностным атомам металла. Это является типичным для слабых взаимодей-ствий металла с носителем. Это поведение, в противоположность поведению Ni−SiO2, подтверждает то, что проявление сильного взаимодействия металла с носителем, вероятно, связано с восстановлением носителя и образованием сплава.
