Preparation of highly dispersed RhPt alloy catalysts in mesoporous silica using supercritical carbon dioxide and selective synthesis of ethane in butane hydrogenolysis.
RhPt alloy catalysts were prepared in mesoporous silica using supercritical carbon dioxide in impregnation to achieve high dispersion with controlled morphology; catalytic activity and ethane selectivity are enhanced in butane hydrogenolysis.
