Catalytic Properties of Rh-Containing Carbon Dots on Oxide Supports in the Glycerol Conversion

What is it about?

It is shown that deposition of Rh-CD (CDs are carbon dots)onto SiO2, Al2O3, and ZrO2 oxide supports contributes to the appearance of the catalytic activity in the process of glycerol conversion. It is established that acrolein and acetaldehyde are oxygen-containing products in this reaction system. It is found that the yield of reaction products increases when using a support with a smaller specific surface area, which is caused by an increase in the surface concentration of acid sites.
