Palladium on alumina catalyst

Johnson Matthey manufactures a palladium on alumina catalyst developed through extensive R&D to optimise the catalyst for selective hydrogenation reactions. With the increased complexity of APIs and performance demands, carrying out hydrogenations in the presence of multiple functional groups becomes more challenging. Our flexibility in designing and tailoring new catalysts for your specific application provides the optimal catalyst solution for your transformation. 

Advantages of Pd on alumina:

  • Does not require pre-activation before use.
  • Stable and robust alumina for long reaction lifetimes allowing for easy filtration from your process for recovery, reuse, and refining.
  • The catalyst is designed to optimise metal location and distribution for specific reaction conditions.
