Pd BaSO₄ catalysts

Johnson Matthey manufactures palladium on barium sulfate catalysts developed through extensive R&D to optimise the catalyst for selective hydrogenation and hydrodehalogenation reactions. With the increased complexity of APIs and performance demands, carrying out controlled 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.

Johnson Matthey's technical expertise can provide you with guidance on choosing the right palladium on barium sulfate catalyst for your project.

Advantages of palladium on barium sulfate:

  • Suitable for highly selective reactions.
  • Catalysts are designed to optimise metal location and distribution for improved performance at lower catalyst loading.
  • Stable and robust barium sulfate for long reaction lifetimes allowing for easy filtration from your process for recovery, reuse, and refining.
