Bimetallic alloy based catalyst design for aerobic oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethyl-Furfural

Jin, Yichao (2021) Bimetallic alloy based catalyst design for aerobic oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethyl-Furfural. Master of Philosophy thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis presents an in-depth study on the alloying effect of Ag-Pd nanoparticles to control product formation selectively under room temperature and ambient pressure. Overall, it was demonstrated that Ag-Pd boundary surface sites exhibited the most effective activity for the selective oxidation of HMF to FDCA under mild conditions. This study may inspire the design of efficient catalysts for application to the selective oxidation of different functional groups in a wide range of reactants.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
