Acetylene hydrochlorination over 13X zeolite catalysts at high temperature†
Abstract
13X zeolite exhibited high catalytic activity and selectivity in acetylene hydrochlorination at high temperatures above 300 °C. The activity of 13X may be derived from its unique zeolite structure, meanwhile Na+ and the active carbon deposit facilitated acetylene hydrochlorination. This finding presented a promising approach for the development of green non-mercury catalysts.
