Operando magnetic resonance: monitoring the evolution of conversion and product distribution during the heterogeneous catalytic ethene oligomerisation reaction†
Abstract
Operando magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy has been used to follow an ethene oligomerisation reaction performed at 110 °C, 28 barg over a 1 wt% Ni/SiO2–Al2O3 catalyst. Spectra acquired over the timecourse of the reaction allow the calculation of conversion and product distribution as a function of time-on-stream.
