Catalyst support information


In the Phillips catalyst, used for about half of the industrial production of polyethylene, the chromium catalyst is supported on silica.

In chemistry, a catalyst support is a material, usually a solid with a high surface area, to which a catalyst is affixed.[1] The activity of heterogeneous catalysts is mainly promoted by atoms present at the accessible surface of the material. Consequently, great effort is made to maximize the specific surface area of a catalyst. One popular method for increasing surface area involves distributing the catalyst over the surface of the support. The support may be inert or participate in the catalytic reactions. Typical supports include various kinds of activated carbon, alumina, and silica.[2]
