Features Of Clariant TONSIL CO-N Catalyst

  1. Highly selective for carbonylation and hydroformylation reactions under mild process conditions.

  2. Thermally stable solid catalyst with low leaching risk, enabling efficient catalyst recovery and reuse.

  3. Engineered from modified bentonite clay with controlled acidity and optimized surface area for consistent activity.

  4. Free-flowing granular form ensures uniform bed distribution and minimizes pressure drop in fixed-bed reactors.

  5. Compliant with REACH and meets stringent industrial hygiene standards for safe handling and storage.

Typical Applications Of Clariant TONSIL CO-N Catalyst

  1. Production of linear aldehydes via hydroformylation of propylene and higher olefins.

  2. Catalytic synthesis of carboxylic acids and esters in fine chemical intermediates manufacturing.

  3. Upgrading bio-based feedstocks, including unsaturated fatty acid derivatives, in green chemistry processes.

  4. Selective condensation reactions in pharmaceutical active ingredient (API) synthesis pathways.

  5. Dehydration and esterification steps in polymer precursor production, such as plasticizer alcohols.
