PROCESS FOR PREPARING A SILVER-ON-CARRIER CATALYST

摘要

73730-3 The invention relates to a process for preparing a silver catalyst on an inert carrier material, which process comprises reductively precipitating metallic silver, from a solution containing silver ions, onto the inert carrier. The reduction is effected by means of a reducing agent which is an oxidizable metal or metal compound present on the surface of the inert carrier material. The process ensures a uniform deposition of the silver over the carrier surface and an excellent adherence of the silver to the carrier surface.
