Abstract :
We reported here the preparation, characterization,
and catalytic ability of a Fe3O4–supported palladium–
carbon (Fe3O4–Pd–C) as an efficient catalyst in disproportionation
of gum rosin. The magnetic nanocatalyst was
prepared by a simple method and was characterized by
FTIR, XRD, TEM, N2 adsorption–desorption, VSM, and
atomic absorption analysis. The prepared catalyst displayed
excellent activity in disproportionation of gum rosin. The
magnetic Fe3O4–Pd–C catalyst was successfully recycled
three times with keeping its catalytic performance. The
simplicity of the nanocatalyst production method and
simple separation and recyclability, on the other hand,
make possible the industrial production and application of
the catalyst.
