CATALYST FOR MANUFACTURING PROPANEDIOL, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING PROPANEDIOL USING THE SAME

摘要

A catalyst for manufacturing propanediol is provided to have a high yield by making proper metal have an optimum of content and to heighten a profitability, safety and effectiveness of a propanediol-manufacturing process by progressing efficiently a reaction at a condition that a pressure and a temperature relatively are low in a case of manufacturing the propanediol from hydroxyacetone using the catalyst for manufacturing propanediol. A catalyst for manufacturing propanediol is manufactured by steps of: preparing a metal precursor solution by dissolving a metal precursor in a hydrophilic solvent; preparing a metal-containing support element in which a metal is dipped by mixing and agitating a metal oxide in the metal precursor solution; evaporating a hydrophilic solvent; drying and pulverizing the metal-containing support element; and plasticizing the metal-containing support element.
