In previous studies, chemoselective performances were found de‐manding and sensitive to H2 pressure. In this regard, we manipulate the chemical/physical charac‐teristics of the catalyst supports via doping Nb into WOx and prepared 1D needle‐, 2D flake‐, and 3D sphere‐stack mesoporous structured Nb‐WOx with increased surface acid sites. Moreover, Nb dop‐ing can successfully inhibit the over‐reduction of active W species during glycerol hydrogenolysis and substantially broaden the optimal H2 pressure from 1 to 5 MPa. When Nb doping is 2%, sup‐ported Pt catalysts showed promising performance for the selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol to 1,3‐PD over an unprecedentedly wide H2 pressure range, which will guarantee better catalyst sta‐bility in the long run, as well as expand their applications to other hydrogen‐related reactions.展开更多

The characterization results showed that doping of Au promoted the reduction of both Pt and W at low temperatures and uniform dispersion of Pt on the WO_3 support. Furthermore, more low-valence Pt species were produced on the WO_3 surface after introduction of Au. These changes in electronic properties resulted in enhancement of both glycerol conversion and selectivity for 1,3-propanediol.展开更多
