Abstract

A PdZn alloy-based catalyst was prepared by impregnation with a Pd salt of the oxides obtained by the thermal decomposition of a Zn–Al hydrotalcite. Two samples were obtained by carrying out the reduction at 373 and 673 K, that were characterized by chemical analysis, powder XRD and TEM. The catalytic activity was tested in the low pressure hydrogenation of acetophenone. The results were compared with those obtained using a conventional palladium catalyst.
