Abstract

Multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-pillared layered Cu_0.4/Mg_5.6Al₂O_8.6 material with doublet meso-pore channels and higher surface area was fabricated and used in hydrogenolysis of glycerol. The activity of surface Cu in MWCNTs–Cu_0.4/Mg_5.6Al₂O_8.6 hybrid is higher than those of Pd- and Rh-promoted Cu_0.4/Mg_5.6Al₂O_8.6 catalysts.
