    Supported copper oxide catalysts for octanal hydrogenation : the influence of water. 

    Govender, Alisa. (2010)
    Copper oxide supported on alumina (CuO/Al2O3), silica (CuO/SiO2) and chromia (CuO/Cr2O3) have been synthesized and characterized. These catalysts were characterized using XRD, SEM, TEM, ICP, BET surface area and pore ...

    Synthesis, characterization and application of supported nickel catalysts for the hydrogenation of octanal. 

    Mthalane, Samkelo. (2010)
    Three nickel based catalysts were prepared by the impregnation method (Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/SiO2) and co-precipitation method (Ni/ZnO). The catalysts were characterized by XRD, ICP-OES, BET-surface area and pore volume, SEM, ...
