Silicon oxide, catalyst support, high surface area, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

Form: S.A. 250m²/g

Typical properties: S.A.250m^2/gSilicon oxide is used as a catalyst support material having a high surface area. It acts as a medium to which catalyst is affixed. Several metals such as platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, silver, copper, nickel, iron, manganese, cobalt, tungsten and gold are supported over silicon dioxide and used as a catalyst in synthetic chemistry for various applications. For example, silica-supported gold catalysts is used for carbon monoxide oxidation by a solution-based technique.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
