Toluene diisocyanate manufacturer News The production cost of palladium carbon catalyst (Pd/C catalyst) is high and the market demand is growing day by day.

The production cost of palladium carbon catalyst (Pd/C catalyst) is high and the market demand is growing day by day.

Palladium-on-carbon catalyst, also known as Pd/C catalyst, refers to a precious metal catalyst that is made by loading palladium metal into carbon elements and refining it through hydrogenation and reduction. Palladium carbon catalyst has the appearance of black coconut shell flakes, no special odor, and has the advantages of long service life, stable performance, high hydrogenation activity, and recyclability. It is used in many fields such as petrochemical industry, water treatment, chemical analysis, medicine, and agriculture. widely.

The preparation methods of palladium carbon catalyst include ion exchange method, impregnation method, impregnation precipitation method, chemical vapor deposition method, metal vapor method, etc. The ion exchange method refers to the method of using reversible chemical reactions to achieve ion exchange to prepare palladium-carbon catalysts. This method is mainly used to prepare palladium-carbon catalysts with low palladium content; the chemical vapor deposition method has a simple process flow and a short preparation cycle. With advantages such as short time and good quality of finished products, it is expected to become the mainstream preparation method of palladium-carbon catalysts in my country in the future.

The main raw material of palladium carbon catalyst is metallic palladium. Metal palladium is a rare and precious metal with excellent ductility and corrosion resistance. It is the active ingredient of palladium-carbon catalyst. my country’s palladium ore resources are in short supply, and its demand for metal palladium mainly relies on imports and recycling. According to data released by the “China Platinum and Palladium Yearbook 2022”, in 2021, my country’s mined platinum and palladium metal output reached 3.8 tons, recycled platinum and palladium metal output reached 26 tons, and platinum and palladium metal imports reached 123.1 tons. The scarcity of raw materials has led to further increases in the production cost of palladium-on-carbon catalysts in my country.

Palladium-on-carbon catalysts have a wide range of applications, with the petrochemical industry being the largest demand end. Palladium carbon catalyst is mainly used in processes such as hydrocracking, low-temperature cracking of gasoline, lubricating oil refining, and gasoline hydrogenation. In recent years, with the improvement of independent research and development capabilities of local enterprises, my country’s hydrocracking technology has continued to advance, driving further growth in the market demand for palladium-carbon catalysts. According to the “2023-2028 China Palladium Carbon Catalyst (Pd/C Catalyst) Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report” shows that my country’s demand for palladium-carbon catalysts will reach nearly 2,000 tons in 2022.

Sichuan New Energy Power Co., Ltd., Xi’an Kaili New Materials Co., Ltd., Qingdao Star Chemical Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Sanyou Group Co., Ltd. are the main manufacturers of palladium-carbon catalysts in my country. In recent years, attracted by market prospects, the number of companies in my country’s palladium-carbon catalyst industry has continued to grow, driving competition in the market to become increasingly fierce.

​​  Industry analysts said that as a precious metal catalyst, palladium-on-carbon catalyst has excellent performance and is widely used in many fields. In recent years, my country’s palladium-carbon catalyst market demand has been continuously released, and the industry’s prosperity has continued to increase. It is expected that in the future, as the technological maturity of local companies increases, the production cost of my country’s palladium carbon catalyst is expected to decrease, and its market penetration rate will increase by then.
