The Effect of Thermal Treatment under Different Atmospheric Conditions on the Catalytic Performance of Nickel Supported on Porous Silica in the Gas-Phase Hydrogenation of Acetonitrile

A series of mesoporous silica-supported nickel catalysts (2.2 wt% Ni) were prepared by impregnation employing the incipient wetness technique using Ni(II) formate as the impregnation salt. Three different atmospheric conditions were employed during the thermal treatment: air, He and H 2 . The cataly...
