Features Of Clariant HyFlex Series Catalyst

  1. Highly selective for hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes to unsaturated alcohols.

  2. Thermally stable under industrial fixed-bed reactor conditions up to 180 °C.

  3. Low metal leaching (<0.1 ppm Ni/Co in effluent) ensures product purity and catalyst longevity.

  4. Engineered for excellent regenerability—maintains >95% activity after three regeneration cycles.

  5. Sulfur-tolerant formulation enables robust operation with feedstocks containing trace sulfur impurities.

Typical Applications Of Clariant HyFlex Series Catalyst

  1. Production of citronellol and geraniol in fragrance intermediates synthesis.

  2. Selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol for fine chemical manufacturing.

  3. Conversion of crotonaldehyde to crotyl alcohol in pharmaceutical precursor routes.

  4. Upgrading bio-based platform molecules such as furfural derivatives in sustainable chemistry processes.

  5. Continuous-flow hydrogenation in modular and microreactor systems for on-demand specialty chemical synthesis.
