文摘Carbon nanotube is found to be a novel support for the selective hydrogenation of citral in this paper. Selective hydrogenation of citral was carried out in an autoclave at 5 MPa and 323 K.

The differential heat of CO adsorption measured by microcalorimetry is firstly used to probe surface adsorption sites of platinum catalyst supported on carbon nanotubes.
