Heterogeneous catalyst containing silicon dioxide

摘要

The present invention provides a heterogeneous catalyst based on silicon dioxide, as well as, a method for manufacturing same. The catalyst of the present invention is constructed from a porous material produced from large-surface glass bodies containing catalytically active additives by leaching with mineral acid and the additives are incorporated into the network of the glass body in the form of metal oxides insoluble in hot mineral acid. The catalyst exhibits a high active surface and is universally employable because it contains only a slight amount of undesired impurities, is highly reactive, and has a high structural stability up to about 1000 DEG C.
