Abstract
EXAMINATION of the molybdenum sulphide catalysts used for hydrogenation has shown that they are not completely resistant to the effect of heat treatment ; X-ray diagrams taken before and after several hours' heating show that the heating results in an increase in the particle size of the catalyst, with a consequent decrease in the surface area and loss of catalytic activity.
